To some people scantilly clad women make them happy. Does that mean heaven will have scantilly clad women? My analogy wasn't bad Gerioke, but your example was...sorry. Your talking about lust....sorry it doesn't mix. I am talking about something good...your talking about something evil. Loving animals isn't evil. Wanting to see scantily clad women to satisfy a lust is. There will be no evil in Heaven. See how that was a bad comparison....that was really stretching it. As to the rest of your post...it was ok with me...I guess we will all find out someday where fido went. Love and Blessings, Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think our pets are meant give us happiness, companionship & unconditional love while we're here on earth. I know it's hard not to imagine here and now, as we are, that being without our beloved pets would be very sad but, as much as I love my dog, I doubt I'm going to think of him once I'm in the presence of my Lord.

I understood what you meant perfectly, and I think you understood what I meant. Lust is always a sin, and if you can find me a heterosexual man that takes pleasure in looking at scantily clad women without lusting after them, I will either commend you, or try to explain the word "lust" to you. Loving animals is not a sin in itself; I can give you many examples of people who love their pets without idolizing them. Also, even if someone idolizes something or someone, it does not change the eternal destiny of the idol in question. This is why your example is faulty.

Why does it have to turn into a contraversal issue or spelling test? Some would argue that animals don't have souls or that heaven wouldn't have room. Well, I think that animals will be in heaven. Because He is preparing a place for me and He knows that I love animals. Soooooo, there ya go!!!!!!!!!!!
