As a whole, I think humans and animals are in an equal level. They can't be superior to us, but we can't be 100% superior to them

Animals are way better than humans. Humans are violent beings.. ( yes this does sound weird coming from a human) But, animals are extremely smart..some smarter than us. lol.
They have better senses..Such as better hearing, better smelling, and the animals can also sense whether.
Guess what told the people of certain towns during the TuSami in Asia? that's right the animals! they started running in 1 direction, and the people who followed them wound up pretty safe.
( forgive meh spelling)

Well,your almost right...except the violence thing, because some animals are pretty violent (chimpanzees, for example, often kill members of their own specie that don't belong to their clan, and komodo dragons practise canibalism)

...religious philosophy isn't even supposed to be posted here.

But, there is one point. Humans are the most suicidal animal in the world. Why? We pollute our land, we feast ourselves on food, we set out on wars that kill many... it just goes on. However, if humans didn't exist, you'd find that the animals could survive fine. Why? They aren't suicidal like us, and that's one way they're smarter than us.

Actually, the worldview we presented is accepted by at least three leading religions, and as far as I know the rules only prohibit matters from a specific real-world religion. Ergo, what we put down was technically allowed. Furthermore, you will notice that I made an initial effort to keep my religious affiliation out of my post. I'm only bringing it up now to clarify the matter. But let's try to stay on topic, hm?

None the less, it's still religious philosophy, and still not allowed. No matter what shade of colour it is, it's not allowed. Period.

Humans are superior in intelligence to animals when in their element. Put a wolf in a supermarket, and it won't know what to do. Wolves can't live in the world of humans. And vice versa, if you put a person in the forest (with no weapons) and a herd of deer come by, they won't know what to do, whilst a wolf would. In the world of the wolf, a human is intellectually inferior. And vice versa in the world of humans.

Wolves are superior than us when it comes to living in the wild(With no man-made weapons who defenses), and humans are superior when it comes to living in the Human society xD
So basically we're all equal.

Yes, but as humans we are able to make weapons, and (to a limited extent) alter our environment to fit our needs.

But elephants can also change the environment around them (although to a much smaller extent). Anyway, dolphins appearently seem to be as intelegent as humans, and I think the only reason why they aren't the dominant specie is because they have flippers instead of arms

So in short, we were designed to be the dominant species.

Agreed.

I believe that all humans and animals are equal; because humans are animals aswell. But definetely an animal the world would do alot better without.

And besides; humans take what they want, while animals only take what they need. We have somehow become the dominant creature on the planet, and use this to a cruel advantage. I don't think it's because we're more intelligent though. I honestly don't know, and I don't really worry about the issue much.
