STARTER PACK: We Clearly Disagree

Emily gets us back in to the swing of things by asking the question, "do animals go to heaven?" Which of course draws us into conversation about the afterlife, being consistent in our theologies, and whether Harambe is in heaven looking down on us with love. We ravel out the "purpose" we or animals will have in heaven, the puzzling reality of carnivorous creatures in a world without Death, and the ecosystems of heaven.

Mentioned in the episode: 

• The Universal Christ by Richard Rohr
• Isaiah 11:6-9 - Lion will lay down with the Lamb
• YHP Podcast on Pantheism
