They don’t have a brain really and kinda just float there. Do they even feel pain?

      The word creature is theistic. The person you’re responding to is being pedantic, but isn’t wrong.

        Thank you for the definition. I think it is wrong. But i appreciate it nonetheless.

        My reasoning is that, while it may have started as a theistic word, it isn’t anymore. When someone says it i don’t think “a creation of God” i just think of like, an animal. Definitions change over time.
