I've heard people express the idea the we humans are animals. But isn't that indignant to compare ourselves to dogs and the cattle we eat? To worms, maggots, vultures, plankton, amoeba, viruses, and bacteria? Aren't we humans better and smarter than animals? Aren't we supposed to be civilized and not like savages or beasts? From a religious perspective, don't we have a soul or some kind of spirit that will continue to live after we die? Is it not that we are 'humans' and, therefore, all other species are 'animals?'
