I keep trying to make good Christians out of my two cats; but they’re recalcitrant. They keep fighting with each other, and doing bad stuff like jumping up on the kitchen stove.

I retain hope, though. Both the Catholics and the Episcopalians ‘bless the animals’, in memory of St. Francis of Assisi - my favorite Saint, even though I’m not a Catholic:

Storm a Mosque maybe?

This is what happens when you apply maternal protective instinct to the poor, helpless little animals instead of having actual children.
Then there are the environmentalists who internalize the “man is inherently evil” but without redemption but through environmentalism, want all humans but them to convert or die while still protecting the only innocents in their ideology, the animals.

Go back to your Gay State.

Boy,that didn't take long.Sad,really!

[Rastus]

I guess they want pets mocked and ridiculed in movies, music, TV and all across the political and cultural landscape.

[Jamestown1630]

Not sure of your point; but I think “maternal protective instinct” should be raised up for praise, wherever we find it.

Without it, we - much less our animals - wouldn’t exist.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Sure. I love my little furball and he loves me. Or he loves the magic cabinet that I get food out of. :)

A pet is not a Christian nor do they have any need of being so.

That is something for humans.

[RoosterRedux]

I’m guessing you don’t have to worry about spending eternity with “Pope Francis”.

Is that heaven for you?

No, I don't care to spend my eternity with a communist anti-Christ.

Mine needs all the blessing that he can get. My Grandma blessed all our pets.

"That... blessed dog of yours...."

LOL!

[MarMema]

Mine too. I expect heaven to be filled with my critters.

Anything that you 'elevate' in your thought/imagination/faith, becomes elevated.

"Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you."

My twin, I think. Agree 100%.

We treat our pets as members of the family. Smokey (a gray and white cat) is on my desk watching the screen, Gizmo (orange and white tabby) is on my bed, Adain (our Irish Setter) is on a chaise lounge, and King Spencer the second (Springer Spaniel) is with my sister...the fish (not named) is swimming in the fishtank...

[Jamestown1630]

Hey! I had a cat named ‘Gizmo’ for about ten years, and he was also orange and white.

Unfortunately he wasn’t much of a Christian - a very wild boy, always getting into mischief :-)

Just wanted you to see what I wrote after I clicked on "report abuse".

In 12 years here I've "reported" three posts (including this one).There can be no doubt that this one goes *way* over the line.

[Persevero]

I think it’s germane. We are allowed to kill and eat all animals. Not to torture them. But they don’t have souls. They aren’t people.
