No. Animal's do not go to heaven. They are a test of your skills as a human being, and when they die, make sure you know it's your fault.
So if your pet dies, make sure to feel really bad, and then know you've failed at life.

Stop forcing your religion on this forum.
1. It's not changing atheists minds.
2. You arn't proving anything, since life could be made by fusing carbon molecules together, slowly creating life.
3. There is no way to prove God exists. Not even miracles can prove he exists, because he can not be seen, and no one has seen him except maby Jesus, who is long dead.
4. If God can do anything he wanted, he'd change the world so every man believes in him, which has no real point. He could easily fix all our lifes and make the world a happy place, but with your sense of his power, he chooses not to.

You still can't prove that god exists, or ever existed.
Religions (most of them) are created to give meaning to life, to make people think that they will be rewarded in the 'afterlife' for being good during their present life.
They are just false hope - and there is no proof to anything you are saying. A book doesn't prove shit. Your beliefs don't prove shit. Come up with a logical argument that god exists, and I'll believe you.

Osup, we believe that God gave us free will, which encompasses the choice to come to Him or not. On a related note, it is that very same free will that has made the world what it is today. It is our sin that has brought disease, starvation, and death into everyone's lives, not God.

Zaku, your argument for the existance of God is faulty. You're assuming that there can be only two explinations for the orgins of life (spontanious generation or God), and since you say spontanious generation can't happen, then it must have been God. But who's to say there aren't other explinations? Plus, if everything had to have been created by something, who created God?
There's no way to definitively prove using the standards of science whether or not God (and thus Heaven and Hell) exist. That's pretty simple. So arguing about it is pointless. For this thread to go anywhere, just assume that there is a heaven that animals could go to, and work from there. I'd say the can't go, cause I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the Bible about animals having souls, and you need a soul to go to heaven or hell.

3. Mostly molecules coming together and forming matter, and evolution, which was not stated in the bible. As for the beginning of the universe, they haven't found out anything. But that doesn't make you or me right.
4. As I said, when carbon molecules combined and started creating simple life, as in probally small, amoebic creatures, that was how life started. Then it evolved from there. There are no dinosaurs in the bible, yet we have full skeletons of them. Made out of carbon. Which is what life derived from. That is why I choose science over religion. Religion is too faulty, and not up to date with our world.
5. He said we as in those who believe in God. If I don't believe in him, then free will came from myself.

Actually, that's a common misconception. Yes, Genesis 2:13-14 says that the Tigris and Euphrates rivers ran through Eden, but you must remember that not long after was the flood. It would've changed the geographical face of earth dramatically, meaning that the original riverbeds could've been destroyed, and that Eden could be anywhere, even South America.

Wrong again. I can provide several scriptures that make reference to one particularly large dinosaur, the Leviathan. Also, you have no skeletons of dinosaurs, what we have are essentially molds of them. The actual skeletons have long since been destroyed by time and weather, minerals just so happen to have filled the molds, leaving you with a fossil.

..... do you have freaking DNA sample yourself? Did they find her dead body, test her for semenal sample, and found out that God boned her? No, they have no proof of nothing. They can't prove that she even gave birth to Jesus even if they had her corpse or bones because then they'd need Jesus's DNA too.
We don't need to talk your information either, person from the internet, so stop acting like you know what's right. And I'm sure there were dinosaurs in "the garden of eden...."
I'm sure they stated that the Leviathan was a dinosaur in the bible, and sorry I meant fossils of dinosaurs, but that's good enough proof for me anyway.
The fact is that neither of us are proovable. He just needs to know that his fundamentalness for his religion is not accepted into this forums since all of us do not agree on the same idea. In fact, there are people here that have faith in other religions.
He is insulting atheists and other religions by him saying he knows the cold hard facts that God exists, yet he has nothing to truely back himself up with on his comments. Not even the pope himself can prove to you that God exists. It's a choice. So stop acting like you're right. No one's right.

Ridley, you've got me wondering. How exactly is science not "faulty." You've heard what I have to say about the scientific origin of the universe, but what about evolution?
Darwin's theory was that over long periods of time, small adaptations and mutations, along with natural selection, would result in new species. Darwin also said the following in the Origin of Species.
"If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."
So, explain to me why I have arms and other body parts composed of several interdependent organ systems if my ancient predecessor didn't even have a flagellum. Let's look at adaptations and mutations, too. I'm assuming you've taken biology, and thus know what a Punnett square is. This is a classic example of how a gene can be preserved for generations without making an appearance in it's host. Let's say a black man and a white woman get married, and have a child whose skin tone looks like a mixture. To keep this going, let's also say that child and his extended offspring only marry black people. Somewhere down the line, so long as the gene for light skin still exists, two people who appear to be black could have a completely white child. So, why is it that humans are never born with fully functional tails if we share a common ancestor with chimpanzees? Now, ask yourself, would you have children with someone who had a third arm, or fins instead of hands? What makes you think an animal would, then? Sure, my example is a bit radical, but you get my point.
Time for the fossil record. I've heard people use this bit of information as if it was the one piece of information that would destroy intelligent design. Again, I will quote Darwin.
"The geological record is imperfect and this fact will to a large extent explain why we do not find intermediate varieties, connecting together all the extinct and existing forms of life by the finest graduated steps. He who rejects these views on the nature of the geological record, will rightly reject my whole theory."
Granted, his statement that the fossil record was imperfect was made over 100 years ago, yet we have come no closer to completing it in that time. There is an extreme lack of fossils of the transitional phases between every species there is, and ever was. Furthermore, many complex life forms appear in the fossil record without any evidence of ancestors from which they could have evolved.
Again, it could just be me, but it seems like there needs to be something like God in there at some point.

Science is pratically the same thing as religion, it's something used to describe how life works. Except I can actually witness science, while faith comes from within you. I don't feel like reading anything but your first sentence, because I'm tired of argueing, and I know that it is a fact of right now that science and faith are at a stalemate. I have the right to choose science, I'm not forcing it on nobody. I may choose some examples to support my opinion, but I am not acting like Science is 100% straight forward like Zaku said God must exist due to this and that.
I believe in the Cat Box theory and superposition, as I said before. If not observed, everything has a even chance of happening until it actually happens. God has not been observed, so he has a 1/2 chance of existing or not existing. The way the universe began has never been observed, so anything goes. If I got enough people to believe it, a Giant fish could've created our universe. What if we all hallucinated and actually thought that a giant fish was our ruler, is he fact since we all agree he's there? Who the hell knows. I just want to get on with my life.

than how did we devolop different languages if we were all the same group at one time its not like 1 baby is born and speaks random gibberish and everybody end up speaking it...
According to the Bible, man tried to build a tower to heaven, the Tower of Babel. God then made it so they spoke different languages, and thus could not communicate with each other to finish the tower. From there, new languages were made the same way they are today. Different accents and dialects eventually become so radically different that it becomes impossible for two groups to speak to each other, and a new language is born.

Correct, I'm blaming God for Chinese... Of course, thats not the only theory to this issue. =]

this so-called "eden" was located somewhere near Iraq, some people believe, as at one point it was a lush oasis, and it was like that when the Hebrews and Jews started this whole bible stuff. also, humans developed language because, if you are a scientifically driven mind like me, they drifted around, across continents before language existed, and thus, they developed different means of communication. also, african people have dark skin because it helps keep them from burning, as according to science, we were apes when we lived in africa. as for animals and heaven, I believe that there is some afterlife, and that heaven would be no paradise without my pets... because my perfect world includes animals.

I voted no, based of my beliefs.
But, just to respect other people's relegions, if humans go to some sort of heaven, why should not animals.
