Here is another article for you. I don't agree with her, but it shows that she does think that humans are animals and also agrees with evolution.

Are we just another ape? | Helene Guldberg | Independent Battle of Ideas Blogs

"If humans were to be wiped out, however, we would lose something quite exceptional: culture and, with that, civilisation. We are the product of evolution like all other animals, but something amazing emerged – possibly around 60,000 years ago – that transformed us. That is, a capacity for cultural transmission."

Yes, she cited that article in her other one - and used it to support her claims.

Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!
Hmnn - so you are telling me that you have childrens nursery songs memorized?

O...K.

Give me time to read them - and I will. I actually read articles in their entirety - not cherrypick bits and pieces like raison.

I will read them and give you some feedback tomorrow - deal?

LOL!
Pay attention.

No. Santa Claus is a myth.

The fact that you think it is 'logical' to believe that a mythical figure called "Satan" is real, is rather strange for any rational grown adult.

But these cherries are so delicious. And I could not have found such delicious cherries if I had not read the articles.
