All Animals Go To Heaven, Says Pope Francis

Definitely an angel.

The Bible is focused on the salvation of man, the only reason that it is not covered in depth.

Out of all of His creation, only man needs a book of instructions. ;-)

I’ve got an in: If go to hell, it will make my furbabies unhappy.

Probably make you unhappy also..

[DungeonMaster]

Another case of giving the people what they want.

[Gargantua]

"...Scripture reference? As much as I’d like to think so I haven’t read anything that suggests this is true."

A lack of scriptural foundation will never stop a good Catholic... but wait...

...there's more!

Scripture does tell us that, at The Judgement, all animals will be asked if they have ever killed a man. This not only implies that an affirmative answer would likely result in some form of nasty consequence for the killer, the completion of that position demands that there be an opposite (or at least different...) result for animals who obeyed God's command not to kill men.

i.e., Heaven.

IMHO

It has to be true, Heaven won’t be Heaven without our precious faithful furry friends.

Someone posted at least 20 references in the Bible that leave it open that the beasts go to Heaven. I should of kept that. Also, the Bible doesn’t say they don’t go to Heaven.

[Psalm 73]

"Also, the Bible doesn’t say they don’t go to Heaven."

I'm going with that.

[FBD]

I'm guessing animal heaven is right out there with those enchanted hydrogen gas castles & giant space serpents.
-because people so want to believe in imaginary worlds. :-/

I am a GOD fearing man, but if there ain’t no dogs in heaven I ain’t goin.

:) I am sharing the couch with a dog I hope goes to Heaven.
