This is my essay of why Dog does not equal God. And I just wanted to say, dogs aren’t bad. I have nothing against dogs (except for tiny dogs, I’m afraid of those). And please don’t hate me for this, because I just wanted to clear this up. First of all, this theory basically forgets about the people who don’t believe in God. I’m not here to criticize the people who don’t, because everyone is allowed to have their own beliefs. The theory that Dog=God doesn’t apply to specific groups of people, therefore there is less evidence to support it. Another reason why Dog does not equal God is, in lots of countries, dog isn’t even spelled “dog”. What about the people in France who call dogs chiennes or chiens? What about the people in Hawaii that call dogs nā ʻīlio? Again, the Dog=God theory is excluding people. My final reason why Dog does not equal God is because dogs aren’t always perfect little angels. In fact, nothing and nobody is. Dogs do many things like chew up shoes, jump up on people (I’m looking at you, tiny dogs), and they also dig up your garden. People may say that dogs are man’s best friend, but that doesn’t always apply. My dad would never get us a dog, because he has a garden that he’s very proud of, he has shoes that he shines and takes care of every day, and he definitely does NOT want to be jumped on. Well, that’s all of my reasons why Dog does not equal God. And anyone who says Dog=God, I’d like to know their reasons.
