There's no need to kill them, you can use non-harmful means to get rid of them, such as repellents.

Why? Only for them to return later?

Or to go to another house?

Kill them now and they will never be an issue again

No, if you are willing to take extra steps, that won't happen and they won't be harmed. I've done it myself recently. No infestation, none were killed or harmed. It's about the sanctity of life in general.

I firmly believe humans have suptemw dominion over nature

I disagree, but if that is an axiomatic premise to you then it's difficult to discuss it because we're polar opposites.

Are you Christian?

Yes

I mean we are the incumbent, dominant species.

Anthropocentrism.

And if we ever meet extra terrestrials, would they then be justified in wiping us out? Do our lives mean nothing then? Because we are not dominant anymore?

Genesis 9:2

I don't think extraterrestrials are at all how they would appear in popular media, I feel as though they would look similar to us.

It's all conjecture but it's a thought experiment worth pondering.

Literally says animals do and should fear us

Yes, that essentially bestows responsibility to humans.

We have power over them

@Deleted User I don't disagree

But if a termite is in my house im killing it

Right, but it doesn't say so let's be complete dicks to them. We have power over children, dominion over them. But we should look after them and help them prosper, not harm them. Same with Animals

No not the same

Children are spiritually equal, arguably superior to adults

Because they are innocent, such as Animals. Without sin.

Humans as a whole are spiritually above animals

I disagree. There's no reason to think that. If anything it's the opposite.

Animals have no soul

We are malicious and cruel as a species.

We do violence without need.

Animals do so with need and necessity.

And prove to me you have a soul and then say that.

When you can prove to me unequivocally you have a soul but an Animal doesn't I'll agree with you.

I have a soul because I am Human

That is circular reasoning.

No

It is the definition of it.

The Bible says this

The Bible says a lot of things. Does it say Animals have no soul?

Pretty sure it does not.

Animal do have soul. But people have to understand that every animal needs to care about his race first. That's how to world works
