Re: Hi, I'm Selena

You idiot. I said we hate sinners, just like Baby Jesus. Baby Jesus hates sinners just like we do.

When you said it, it sounded like you hated Jesus.....

Are you saying he doesn't? Are you one of those limp-wristed, thouchy-feely, false Christians that says Jesus loves everyone? Just so you know, you're going to Hell.

JEEEEEJ!

I'm on a highway to hell!!!

Man, the worst thing that ever happened in my life was when my pet rabbit died and that was purely horror!

Was it you who sent me this picture?

Re: Hi, I'm Selena

Don't worry about that dog, he's going straight to heaven. He's just converting pagan rituals into good christian rituals, just like your ancerstor's ancerstors did when they wrote the bible, and they turned out okay, didn't they?

Animals do not have souls - they do not go to Heaven. For the same reason, the remains of the rabbit are not going either.

As God created the heavens and the earth and all that is in them, there were no "ancestors' ancestors"

There were, maybe, several tribes of ooga-booga natives who were too stupid to understand God's Word, who then told story back to front, inside out and upside down. The resulting confusion made their brains ache and they came out with a garbled story of Creation.

It is this rubbish that you describe as "pagan ritual". God's Word, must be the first, the enduring and the one and only True Account of the Earth.

Sometimes, Kerplunki Zerplopski, I believe you may have a little glimmer of intelligence, then you come out with this garbage, which you simply have not thought through.

Re: Hi, I'm Selena

How do you know that animals don't have souls? Can you prove that animals don't have souls? Is there any good reason animals shouldn't have souls? If so, how come some animals look and act really human-like?

PS. the whole ancestor's ancestors thing was just to outline that it was a really long time ago...

Landover Christian University does research into this.

To ascend unto Heaven one must have a soul. There is no record of any animal ascending unto Heaven therefore either (i) they are all evil and descend to Hell or (ii) they have no souls.

There is no record of any animal descending into Hell, therefore we must conclude that they are neither good nor evil and thus have no soul.

Is there any good reason animals shouldn't have souls?

Yes, God gave Man dominion over the animals – God has Dominion over Man. Man has a soul. To put us in dominion over the animals would be to create minor gods of all men. Following the Fall in Eden, man was relegated to being mortal. Following the Flood, no mention was made of any change to man’s spiritual status. Thus we remain mortal but may attain eternal life by Salvation through Christ.

Additionally, killing is somewhat frowned upon by God, save in certain circumstances but God has no trouble with animal sacrifice and eating meat, wearing leather, etc. If He had given animals souls, there might have been a problem (but not always).

If so, how come some animals look and act really human-like?

I think that the question you really mean to ask here is, “Why do some humans look like animals”

This is the Doctrine of Signs*. If someone looks like a pig, the chances are that he will behave like one – this is to give others fair warning. It comes about by the subject’s mother being frightened by some animal whilst she was pregnant with the subject. However, this is all Biblical Science and as such, probably above your head.

I don't think there's prove of humans' souls going to heaven either (unless you count cartoons as prove, but there are cartoons where animals go to heaven)
And no mr., that stupid book of lies of yours (the bible) is not prove.

First of all, there are plenty of idiots like you come here to Landover and keep chanting the same phrase, "That's not proof".

So what proof do you want?

This might interest you, especially as, for a few weeks in August of 1899, Duncan MacDougall did research at Landover

The “weighing the soul” of the title was the apparently daft project of an American physician called Duncan MacDougall, who carried out a series of experiments just over 100 years ago based on the theory that if there were a soul it should weigh something. He placed beds containing dying patients on a large set of scales and watched for a sudden drop in weight at the moment of death. Several experiments gave him a figure of three quarters of an ounce.

Modern scientists sniff at such a project, not least because they claim there are no rational grounds for believing that the soul exists. However, Fisher regards this as not exactly fair. While dismissing the soul, they are perfectly happy to believe in the existence of the “Higgs boson”, a particle that has never been detected or measured in any way.
[…]
Early in his career Galileo was asked by the Pope to use his mathematical skills to work out the exact location and dimensions of Hell. His calculations showed it to be a cone-shaped structure with the point at the centre of the earth and the top a circle whose centre was below Jerusalem. The big structural problem was the unsupported roof, which spanned 5,000kms. Galileo claimed that the design used for the dome of the cathedral in Florence would do the job and was lavishly praised.

And

MacDougall also measured fifteen dogs in similar circumstances and reported the results as "uniformly negative," with no perceived change in mass. He took these results as confirmation that the soul had weight, and that dogs did not have souls.

Landover University... pah...

first of al, they're not an official university (IF it exists at al)
Second of al: those so-called experiments are not scientific and sadistic to boot... it's HORRIBLE!
Third: show me a soul, and i'll believe it exists

That doesn't show him helium. That shows one of helium's affects. However, helium (in its gaseous form) cannot be SEEN, which is what Mr. Bathfire wanted. Did you make helium gas visible? No. Souls aren't visible either.
