Regarding the Talmudic prohibition- גוי ששבת חייב מיתה given that it’s prohibited for Jews to cause animals to rest( even if not belonging to them) on Shabbat then is not saying that non Jews are lesser than animals because Shabbat is prohibited for them ?

Thus a non Jew who is בן אדם who because is he a human being and bestowed with the intellect of God( צלם אלוהים /דמות אלוהים ) is prohibited to rest on Shabbat, but an animal who is a lower form of creation is required not to be forced to do work on Shabbat and the Jew must let it rest even if it does not belong to them – ובהמתך

So therefore it would mean that according to the Talmud/ Halacha non Jews are lower than animal because they are prohibited to rest, but animals are not.

This is not an insidious post, but just something I want to ask

Thanks in advance
