Answer 2

Poet's opinion on religion, in the poem "Animals", is described and evaluated below.

• The poem titled "Animals", is written by Walt Whitman. In this poem, he has shown the comparison between animals and human beings.
• The poet describes his will to become an animal, as he put forward his thinking that animals are far better compared to humans.
• The poet goes on to say that it makes him sick seeing humans always keep discussing their duty to God, which animals don't. It is actually his quite a critical view of religion as it feels like a burden to him, and he thinks humans always keep boasting about what good deeds they have done in the name of religion or God.
• Life should not be as such, but humans should do good deeds and perform humanitarian acts from the heart, and without thinking about things like religion or God.
