What Happened To "All Dogs Go To Heaven"?

Certain Christians believe that the virtuous will be lifted up to heaven as Judgment Day nears. This miraculous event, called the Rapture, will leave sinners behind on earth.

It will also, allegedly, leave all animals behind. Including the beloved pets of those virtuous enraptured Christians. Thereby arises a money-making opportunity:

...61-year-old Bart Centre has come up with a plan to look after those domestic animals not scooped up in the heavenly exodus. In July, he started Eternal Earth-Bound Pets, a pet-sitting service to care for those critters.

"Each Earth-Bound Pet representative is a confirmed atheist, and as such will still be here on Earth after you have received your reward," the company's Web site promises. "Our network of animal activists are committed to step in when you step up to Jesus."

By this means he hopes to capture
cash from those who plan to rapture.
