    Fair enough, but most of us don’t worship dogs.

      Cows do more, though. Dogs are wonderful, but the fact a cow can work a field and give milk means pretty much ALL the food in your village is cow-dependent in your stone-to-iron age culture. It’s very symbolic that it feeds everyone without needing to die, I think. All that while being usually gentle. I don’t worship anything but I can understand how they would be seen as sacred.

      It almost reminds me of the guy who picked “bears” for the higher power he believed in for AA.

        Yes, but there’s a reason for that. If you don’t worship them, they’ll eat your face when you’re asleep.
