Originally posted by FreakyKBHI was being serious. If you could preach to dolphins, and they could understand you, I have no doubt that some of them would be religious.
.....that you meant it tongue in cheek.
Maybe not.
So you have some examples you care to cite which discuss the religiosity of any creature other than man?
I hardly think it requires examples, I think that if you have a pet, you would be able to identify some behaviours in it that are the same as some behaviours to be noted in religious people. Deference to authority for example.
I am claiming--- very seriously, very emphatically--- that there exists no record of animals behaving in any way, shape or form similar in action to the evident religious nature of man.
And I do not think you know very much about animals. I also think you are being quite ridiculous when you make a claim about all records. You are of course dismissing most fairy tales, and even a few religious books. For example, the snake in the garden of Eden seemed quite religious.
