My cat smiles when she's happy. Her face looks so happy. Dogs smile too.
Plus they wag their tails in joy. The Categorical Imperative is used by 17
humans in the world and they were tortured to death. If we had no laws, we
wouldn't be sitting around talking about the Categorical Imperative. We'd
be armed to the teeth. Even with laws we're armed to the teeth. The
source of humanity is no joy at all.
