Fundamentalists are emphatic that dogs do not go to heaven. Just another reason they disgust me.
Reminds me of the story of the guy and his dog who both died suddenly. They awoke to find themselves walking on a path in the woods. They came to a clearing and there was a figure who looked like St. Peter at the heavenly gates. The guy and his dog approached. "St. Peter" patiently told the guy that, as this was heaven, he would have to leave his dog behind. The guy considered that, refused to leave his loyal hound behind, and they both resumed walking along the path.
After awhile, the two came upon a second clearing, where the real St. Peter welcomed them both into the real heaven. As they were going in, the guy asked who was the guy in the first clearing, then, and what was that placed.
St. Peter told him, "That was the devil, and he was at the gates of hell. He eagerly accepts anyone into hell who would abandon their dog, for that is where they belong."

Words...just words. That has no more meaning than the idiot fundamentalists words IMO. But it makes a nice feel good thing to say to people who've just lost a pet.
The OP just lost one of his best friends on this Earth. Take your insensitive, self-important thread crap elsewhere, ass. And take anything else you have to say to me to pm.
