One could argue he made some really awesome machines and put souls in them 😁 and plants are kind of machines We're just not as good as him, our machines are shadows compared to his

so true. I think we are honestly the best and coolest machines on earth tho.

Our God, is an awesome God

I know what you mean. I was just marveling at the fact that God only creates beings. Machines are uniquely soulless things that mankind artifices to manipulate reality. Also, I don't think you meant to be reductive but St. Thomas Aquinas states that "the intellectual soul is united by its very being to the body as a form", basically saying that the body is not just a machine the soul inhabits. Also according to Aquinas, all living things technically have souls, but plants and animals don't have immortal souls.

Yes agreed
