I lost my 16 year old Dachshund, Daphne, on Nov. 1, 2011. I was very sad, but she was so feeble and old that I knew it was better for her. And even though we are to believe, as Christians, that our beloved pets do not go to heaven, I do believe that we will see them somehow in the afterlife. They brought us so much joy during our lives and heaven is a place of complete joy that there has to be something of our pets with us when we die.
I believe I am a Christian man, this is my most important point on which I disagree with the church.
If my dogs can’t go to heaven; then obviously, there is no place for me there.
Are we not ALL Gods creatures?
