Kevin's Watch

This is brilliant.

You've committed your life to Jesus. You know you're saved. But when the Rapture comes what's to become of your loving pets who are left behind? Eternal Earth-Bound Pets takes that burden off your mind.

Wow, now that aunt with all the cats can rest easy.

I love this. I wonder how much they are making on this. Hell, even one sale would be worth it.

I can't see how this would work at all. What good, God-fearing Christian would leave their dog in the hands of a heathen like me???

I rather not leave my pets behind when the rapture comes

Do pets go to heaven?

Dogs taste like lamb, cats taste like rabbit. The rest tastes like chicken.

According to the Mormons they do.
I believe the JWs say they don't.
I'm not sure about Catholics, or the other Protestant sects.

Though according to Mormons, animals are in heaven, I don't think they believe in the rapture... at least, not in the popular conception of it.

Though there may not be animals in JW heaven, there are certainly animals in their paradisaical earth.

Catholics, at least officialish, I'd say no, they also, if I recall correctly, don't believe in a rapture.

A good chunk of Protestant sects would probably also say no.

But that old guy on that episode of the Twilight Zone knows better.

Actually, every Catholic Priest I've spoken with has said "yes".

Although I've only asked about dogs. Everyone knows cats are minions of Satan.

All dogs go to Heaven!!!

I wonder if that's official, or if it's post Vatican-II. I'd always been under the impression that officially, they didn't. (Would be bad PR though. )

I wonder if that wasn't individual priests being hopeful so as not to upset animal-loving parishioners... because I didn't think the official Catholic dogma allows non-humans to have souls.

Technically, though, since heaven makes all things possible, I wonder if the priests' thinking is that one's heaven might come furnished with favorite pets and other items.

But, since the Rapture is a figment of silly Protestants' imaginations... it's all moot.

And cats are soul-less, which is why they strive to eat those of hew-mons.

I know the one you mean! The old coon hunter! Haha! Great episode.

Yep!

Sure...all dogs go to heaven, but the big question is, would they be taken up with the rapture? Can a dog be saved?

I would say that, since they can't write checks, and have no inclination to tithe, that no, they cannot be saved.

Yeah, that was sorta how I thought of it as well.

Just for s*its and giggles, I Googled this....

There appears to be quite a bit of debate about it.

I dunno, but I sure hope they're there.

Haha, if humans can get in, animals sure deserve to.
