KB being the devout Christian and Biblical scholar that he is really should know better. Animals do not have immortal souls according to the teachings of Christianity. http://www.apologeticspress.org/articles/448

Wow!! - To all the people knocking my facts - WHAT ARE YOU SCARED OF!!!

Youy have to be!!!!

 

I stated that I had bought a door bell (not modifyable, but sealed!) and used it through all weathers for about 2 years without incedent. Then I had the bell ring, the following night my fire alarm (electric - fitted by the housing association) went off and after checking everywhere, there was no reason for it to do that. Then Brenda's guide dog was put down and, because I am not afraid of something I don't understand, I asked Ingwe to tell me when the dog arrived. The bell rang.

 

It had not gone off before it happened, and has not gone off since!! But you all make all sorts of stories and say I have lost it. WHY?? I repeat - what are you scared of.

 

Emma - again you have proved your ignorance - READ the Bible - the old testament tells people what the countries were like BEFORE Jesus arrived! The new testament shows, very much like you guys, that they had to destroy something they didn't understand! Jesus said in probably his most important dialogue "A new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another as I have loved you!" The only thing in the New testament that is a bit suss is Revelations, which Jesus had nothing to do with!

But instead of closing your minds to it, ask someone who knows - they will tell you the facts and, unlike mormons and SDA, they won't ram religion down your throat.

 

Just to show how you are. A posting "cat or dog?" has appeared for you all to knock!! Big cats can hide right next to you and not be seen! How many have been released into the wild? But you will not accept until one has been KILLED to give you final proof, and even then will say it is a fluke!!

Which raises an interesting question. If our distant ancestors were animals with no 'soul', at what point did we advance sufficiently to earn a soul? Did everybody suddenly start getting one, or was it based on the individual? If your kids weren't quite as good as you, did they fail to get one? What were the criteria?

You know what I am scared of KB?

 

People like you

 

People who are so sure of their own infallibility

 

People who are so intolerant of other races, religions, lifestyles and even divisions of their own religion.

 

People like you who are responsible for more misery, wars and killings on all sides than anyone else.

 

I won't read your bible any more than I will read the holy books of any other religion, all of which are equal in my eyes.

 

I am at an age when I would feel rather comforted by the idea of eternal life. I came within a couple of mm of finding out earlier on this year, but you know, I am rather looking forward to the idea of oblivion, there are a few people I would not be looking forward to meeting again
