Originally posted by @suzianneMy vision of Christians is that their conception of their God cannot be explained by claiming that dogs are more able to understand that God than atheists can. My vision of you is that you have difficulty processing atheists and what they believe.
Your vision only encompasses the surface.

So we know what kind of forum posting/poster he likes. I don't think I have "slapped a denigrating label" on you, have I? What was it? What denigrating label has Philokalia slapped on you? I missed it. Was it on a thread on this forum?
Actually [Philokalia is] rather like you.
Just slap a denigrating label on the people who disagree with you and call it a day.
Originally posted by @suzianneDogs don't connect unconditional love with God either Suzianne, for the rather significant reason that dogs have no concept of God whatsoever.
I'm sure some atheists can understand unconditional love, but it is their failure to connect it with God which separates them from dogs.
Also, what you see as unconditional love in dogs is actually the hormone oxytocin in the caudate nucleus of their brains (which aids social bonding) and is genetically born from the pack mentality of mutual survival.
Nothing divine there I'm afraid.

-Removed-So you can't answer any of the questions I posted or won't. Like, is there an ecology in heaven? Do people have to eat there? Do they live in houses? Are they just congregated on a hill singing hymns? No animals? If there are animals, do they eat? Do humans feed them? Is this a Trump situation, where just asking questions like this is offensive?
Originally posted by @stellspalfieAs in efficient use of words to get the concepts across. Still, how do Christians view heaven? Would they have actual corporal bodies requiring food and would they reproduce in heaven and are pets allowed or wild animals, in other words, do Christians have any idea at all of the myth they believe in?
Perceptive and dismissive in seven words, excellent post!!
