LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

My friend Father David Poecking writes, in response to a Facebook exchange being me and a Patheos colleague with a strange and disturbing affection for cats:

On dogs and cats, I am a moderate: Dogs manifest the loving communion God intended for all his creatures. Cats manifest the threat of Judgment against sinners: Just as your cat doesn’t have any emotional need for you, so also God could raise up children of Abraham from these stones.
