Will there be pets at all there? If so, what do we do when they get sick? Or will they all be immortal and invulnerable? Or will there be no pets in heaven, only humans?

How can they be allowed into heaven when dogs don't even know what god is?

Dogs know what and who god is.
If, as some here tout, that following God IS the same as loving God, then it's clear that knowing unconditional love IS the same as knowing God.

Dogs know unconditional love.

Originally posted by @suzianneThe love of god as explained by sonship, KellyJay and the other purveyors of eternal suffering, is certainly not “unconditional”, in fact I would say I don’t know of a single Christian in this forum who would promoted a version of God with “unconditional” love. Except me perhaps.

The monstrous god who will hang in chains and burn alive forever non-Christians or those who reject him is certainly not a god of “unconditional” love.
What say you?

As in, a heavenly eco system where animals eat each other in the wild and such.
Put on your thinking caps and come up with a scenario for animals in heaven.
Originally posted by @divegeesterI am of the opinion that God is love, as evidenced by his Son while he was among us.

And yes, such a remarkable love as this must be unconditional. If only we could love him back as he loves us. We seemingly are even unwilling to love others as we love ourselves. One of humans' greatest challenges is to simply be honest in our love, never mind all the rest of it.
