Originally posted by NemesioBecause humans were created above animals. When God created Adam and Eve, he put them in control over all the animals. That's why it's okay to eat a turkey or something.

Might some bad pets go to hell?
What if you and I both go to heaven, but your dog makes me unhappy? What happens to his soul?
God game man a choice to go to heaven or hell, God doesn't send people to hell they make it their own choice.
The Bible says, that our rightousness is like filthy rages.

If they go simply in virtue of making people happy, might your mother get to go to heaven even though she is not a real Christian in virtue of making you happy?
