Animals in Heaven?: A Catholic Pastoral Response to Questions about Animals (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798385226764)

Christians of all traditions have often puzzled with the question "Do dogs go to heaven?" Drawing on Catholic teaching, and on his long pastoral experience as a parish priest, Terry Martin expands that concept to consider wider issues around all animals, domesticated and free-living, and why they are here. Within a context of Christian faith, he seeks to understand the place of animals in God's complex creation and the relationship that human beings have (for good or ill) with those animals. More than that, he looks at the big questions which so many ask about who, under God, animals are and what meaning, if any, animal lives have from a Catholic Christian perspective.
