How is man different from animals?

Man has a Spirit that helps him connect with God. He also possesses a superior soul that that can differentiate between the right and the wrong, sin and righteousness and shame and modesty. His soul and body will also remain eternal.

Man is not an animal. Man has an eternal soul that animals don’t possess. Man has the sixth sense that makes him conscious of his existence, his surroundings, his lineage and ancestors, ethics and morality and possess a sense of belonging to the society he is in. He has a dignity that gives him a self-esteem to keep his head high. He does not choose his spouse for procreation only but to share a life filled with love and other intimate emotions. He exerts his will, has his desires, thinks deeply (even about his thoughts) and expresses his feelings. He communicates using complex language, uses his hands to work, appreciates art, aesthetics and beauty and develops culture and civilization. “I think; therefore, I am”.
