the supernatural in the Animal

remember Bacon:
Those who deny God destroy man's nobility, for certainly man is of the lineage of the animals because of their body, and if not the spirit of God would be a low and miserable creature. Also destroys the magnanimity and emerging human nature. To take the example of a dog, suffice it to what generosity and courage will use when underpinned by a man, who holds for him instead of a god or melior natura; courage that would not show if it had the certainty of a better nature than yours ever could acquire.
What I recall after reading Konrad Lorenz:
No default instinct leans the dog to lay his head on the knee of his master, and for this reason that such an action bears a closer relationship with our human language than wild animals "are saying" between them.
The dog, in relation to the master, adopting a language that is somewhat creative, open to experience and intelligence, rather than a mere hindrance in their DNA. Lorenz contends that if these results can not be replicated in a scientific environment in the case of the missing dog is incentive for this was the everyday space of submission to the owner, very difficult to translate into the artificial conditions of laboratory. In particular, he writes:
is still too early to compare the dog with the great apes, but I think the dog will prove to be more suitable for the understanding of human speech, however much the ape can overtake in other intellectual abilities.
But the dog is not a monkey and do not seem to merit or one hundred thousandth of the attention that they now monopolize. What is simple for the Darwinian determinism by kinship, namely, sensitivity, empathy and a certain capacity for abstraction, for the ethologist is a cultural breakthrough in a brutish to the treatment continued with a melior natura transformed over the generations. The emphasis in the chimpanzee and the stifling role that appears to give scientific mandarins should be, then, to the genetic fallacy, the militant materialism and contempt for priests profess evolution toward spirit.
