Now I'm beginning to worry! They are laying down at my feet, confident in the knowledge that I am there to take care of them. I'm a good dog owner, but who will take them when I'm gone? Anyone left behind will be a bad person and, therefore, a bad dog owner. If only I could believe in a doggie Heaven, I would be less anxious. But then, are my dogs good enough to make it into doggie Heaven? Does someone know if doggie rapture is today as well? Who schedules all the different raptures? I NEED ANSWERS!!!

(2,679 posts)Dog=God So of course they get in past saint peter and his pearly gates, no problem.
Cat=Tac So, it won't be as easy. And all those cats that chilled with witches. Oh and Socks had email issues, wait when the Clinton's brought their cat to the White House did they have email then? Probably. So Socks committed double sin, used AOL, which is so not a secure email server, and was the Clinton's pet.
Ps. I love cats. I am not anti-cat. I have more cats then dogs.

(16,104 posts)We can bet none of this will happen - and if it does - whoa!
Or we can bet it just might happen - what would we lose if it didn't? Not much.
So, if you're one to hedge your bets a little...you might make friends with a pet-loving atheist!

I was thinking we could see anything that big before it hits us, but we have a heavy overcast this morning so it'll just be whamo.

(40,416 posts)The book wasn't bad either, however I was in Junior High School when I read it. So, I couldn't vouch for it now, some 55 years later.
But I like that film.
When Worlds Collide (Wiki)
csziggy
(34,136 posts)But then I love even bad 1950s science fiction films. I also read the book and the sequel but haven't for at least fifty years.
My husband is helping a friend who recently lost his wife clean out their apartment. One of the things he found and was given is a copy of When World Collide. The other DVD he got was This Island Earth - and even better movie!
longship
(40,416 posts)Indeed, a rather great film.
Trailer:
The sequel book to When Worlds Collide was, IIRC, After Worlds Collide. They were written in 1933 and 1934. Pretty good SciFi given that.

If the choice was between people getting into heaven and dogs, then your dog would get in and you wouldn't. So maybe your dog is asking, "who will take care of you when I'm gone?"

On the floor?! Oh no! Who's going to vacuum my floors?
This is far worse than I realized, and getting even worse all the time.

(12,132 posts)Cats then.
ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)She was a calico, and most calicos are nice. But she got worms. She left little pieces of "rice" wherever she sat. So if you have a nice cat with evil worms, what happens? Does the cat get raptured and leave the worms behind, or does the cat not get raptured until she is dewormed? What if you are having her dewormed while the rapture is happening? Can rapture be delayed under certain circumstances?
I'm just asking for the cat people. I don't have a cat anymore.

Are we allowed to refuse rapture if our fur babies can't come with us?
