The Hewdge article about a group of atheist animal lovers, who for a fee, promise to look after any ‘left-behind’ pets, after their Christian owners have been taken up to heaven or “raptured”, has sparked a firestorm of debate among our evangelical readers
The article, posted on Saturday, features the American website: http://www.eternal-earthbound-pets.com
To follow, a few of the letters Hewdge has received.
What the hell kind of fag blog-site are you running anyway? Jesus!!! Who the hell is interested in Eternal Earthbound-Pets services, fer chrissakes?! As a hetero-practicing Christian, who is due to be paroled next month, why in hell would I let a commie-liberal-nancy-atheist take care of my best friend?”
F**k that website…..Hewdge mistake! Amen

I think Eternal Earthbound Pets is a wonderful idea and I believe God will forgive those atheists (in some small measure) for their good works. I have already signed up Ginger for the scheme, because I’m worried he might get stuck up a tree when I’m not around

I’m not sure about this scheme – can we Christians really trust people like atheists to be honest and look after our beloved pets when we’re sitting at God’s right hand? After all, these people are self-confessed sinners. I think I would rather leave my pet with the Confucians up the road (as long as Mr Kim Yeong and his family promise not to cook and eat my little Bobby in a curry after I’ve gone)

We admit we have a Hewdge problem with foul language. As a reputable source of news and information, Hewdge has a responsibility towards its readers for the site’s content. Since we published Helga Hewston’s memorable Beirut interview with hip-hop artist Snoop Dogg (see interview below), we have been inundated with complaints over the foul language or lyrics that Mr Dogg used to express his feelings for his girlfriend.
