I read this quote the other day...something like,
“I don’t know if dogs go to heaven or not, but I want to go where they go.”
Americans dream about going to dog heaven when they die, and muslims dream about 72 virgins. I just don’t know what to think about that. What about the animals we slaughter and eat? are we going to see them in heaven too? Does a muslim dog get 72 virgins when it dies? What about pigs? jews and muslims both think they are unclean.
I still like the thing they came up with for the episode of “Little House on the Prairie” where the character played by Johnny Cash was pretending to be a pastor but stealing the town blind. He was called to talk to the little girl whose pup had died, and he told her that God had everything good and wonderful in heaven so dogs must be there too. Or something like that. Anyway, it’s one of those kleenex scenes.
