The Bible records that when God made some of His Covenants he made them not only to Man, but to the animals as well. See the Covenant about the Flood and the rainbow.

Not only do dogs, and all animals have souls, every living thing has a soul…and when their lives are over they go to that same place our human spirits go to. I don’t believe this, I know this…because when I was so remorseful at having to put my pet down I said a prayer to St. Anthony asking if animals had souls and received a message that yes, dogs have souls…all living things have a soul. Later, after a NDE and doing research, I found a website with a translation of a fragment of the Book of Mary Magdalene which literally said the exact same thing.
We need to eat to live. Unfortunately, we must consume other living things to do so. So whether it’s a steak or a fish or a tomato the thing you are eating had a soul. The way to deal with this is to apologize to that which has died to sustain you and thank it for it’s having to die for your need…even if it’s a steak from the supermarket…because it’s consciousness is not still in the steak, but it is in that other dimension and it will be aware (and I’m sure appreciative) of your apology and thanks.

It is a tough one. I hope they do. I hope humans have souls, for that matter. I can’t imagine much of a “heaven” without some dogs around.

dogs do have souls and they do go to heaven; they do not need to accept Christ to be saved… only man..who ate the forbidden apple has begun to sin… animals are not sinners and do not have to be saved to go to heaven… they are pure, natural and in line with God’s creations… and the breath of life brings into the body the SOUL…..

P.S.: I am a vegetarian… to a point; I eat fish and poultry.

Kim, I think sometimes we all need a break from the rest of humanity!

I am glad, however, that you at least posed the questions you needed to ask yourself.

Sorry if I can’t really be of any help though, but I wish you all the best.

I agree. I not only refuse to watch or read the news or anything that may deal with subjects that may cause the empathetic negative feelings to overwhelm me, It is necessary for my well being. To become flooded with other people’s sadness and pain is unexplainable. I am unable to watch this sort of stuff, even if it is fiction. I suffered from extreme anxiety and depression for 11 years and I believe that it was because I did not recognize what was going on with me. I had often thought that it was a bit strange how I could sense a general idea of what another person and/or animal was experiencing emotionally or mentally but I think I just assumed that everyone did that. It has not been until quite recently that the “ability” I have was not one that just anyone could access.
Trust me, I really do not feel I have supernatural powers and I certainly do not think I am in anyway above another person. My understanding is that everyone has this capability in one form or another but for what ever reason, they have not been able or have yet to access it. I am now at a stage where I really would like to put this “genie” back in the bottle. It has become obvious to me that upon being educated about empathy and clairsentinent abilities, there has been an extreme increase in flow. It is as if a flood gate has been open and being relitivly new to all of this I feel overwhelmed and have no one to really talk to about it.
There is no doubt that learning to balance and ground myself is a necessity but to whom do I approach and how do I go about approaching anyone trust worthy enough to share this information with in order to learn how to protect myself?
I am not expecting you or anyone else to be able to give me that answer, I guess I was in effect typing that question to myself.
If you did not think I was absolutely insane before, I am certain you do now. (o:
It is ok however. I completely understand how far fetched this topic is for most people and any judgement of my sanity is well understood.
I know this will seem to once again sound pessimistic to you, but in general, in the world today, it is very difficult to be able to simply dodge those issues that affect me. My current position involves managing and living in a boarding home that serves people suffering from mental illness. After a while working here, I found that I could not leave my room. I could barely get out of bed. My shifts were covered, but it was very frightening for me. I had no contact with anyone for about 3 weeks. One day, I got out of bed, showered, got dressed and stepped back into my role. With time I realized I had become more distanced from the residents. Not in the way of not caring, but in the way of emotional attachments. I think I was flooded with all of their emotions and feelings and it was necessary for me to take that time in order to cleanse and re-gain my self. I did not know which emotions where mine and which were someone else’s.
Currently, I am doing well with balancing the responsibilities I have to my job while maintaining an emotional distance from the people I care for.
I have so much more to work on and I really do not want to have to focus on this stuff at all. The more I think about it, the stronger it seems to get. I really want it to go away.
Safe Journeys to everyone!

Kim, it is always good when we realise that certain things will have a particular effect on us.

Rather than denying it we can then seek a solution. This is the most difficult part (admitting it).

It sounds like you have contemplated a lot of very serious issues. On balance, I think I just try not to think about anything morbid or upsetting.

Why watch the News or read stories that will upset you? Lots of people do I know, me I will just not watch/read.

hi again, and I do honestly believe that to say “faith” is not a matter of being pushy in any way. We all, even the most extreme of athiests, have what you call as “blind optimism” regarding one issue or another. It is something we require in order to find a sort of peace in an issue. To me “faith” has absolutely nothing to do with religion but is placed in religion in order to find comfort. All quite natural in my opinion. Believe it or not, even I have put faith at work in my life on many different issues or ideals.
You hit the nail on the head by mentioning knowing first hand about how that pretty meat all dressed in plastic gets into the grocery stores. It is just those type of situations that I am forced to shut my emotions down. I do not mean that I do not care. But I know that this morbid practice is not going to change no matter what the gatehered minorities yell about how terriblly wrong it is.
When I have found myself in a position to actually witness something so horrible being done to such innocent beings I have only found myself in bad trouble and to the point of possibly going to prison.
I really do not care to live the rest of my life in prison so I avoid coming across this type of scenerio at all costs. There is no thought before action when witnessing abuse and cruelty for me. I just react.
I scare myself. When this has happened in the past I see that I am very capable of harming if not killing over such issues. I do also realize this is not healthy. I simply lose all access to my self conrol. My mind knows nothing but getting my hands on the people/person commiting these crimes against animals. So that you understand, the same thing occurs when I am subjected to the situation of such abuse being done to a human as well. There is some tremendous force that takes over and it is “katy bar the door”
I may have mentioned that I am an extremely strong empath. I cannot even watch a movie if it has issues that deal with pain, depression, grief, or any negitive emotion. I pick it up and as of yet I have not completely mastered how to balance it. I have been told it is a gift. I tend to question that. Maybe being able to balance and control it, but sometimes the pain and hurt of others is more overwhelming than that of my own.
But I am blindly optimistic that I will be able to balance it one day and hopefully be able to actually help those who are suffering with those feelings.
Thank you for welcoming my posts. I realize at times I can be way out in Right Field to a lot of people but what can I say? I gotta be me.
