all religions never ban pets. however, keeping them in healthy condition and looking after them is the pre-requisite in my religion. if some don't care the pets, my religion strictly prohits such act.

I've never heard of any religon banning pets, that's just stupid. I'm sorry but if someone tried to get me to "join" (not that I would because I stand firm in my own beliefs) a religion that didn't allow you to have pets I'd have to tell them to take a hike!! to Quote the greatest cat of all time: Love Me Love My Teddy (Pookie) -Garfield-

any religion that stops you from having pets is simply bogus .. im sorry .. if ur a religious fanatic .. you r free to disagree and be *issed off .. but to me there is no religion above COMMON SENSE .. and my common sense tells me there is nothing wrong in ever having a pet

All religions basically promise an awesome afterlife when we die, in order for heaven to be heaven, all my furry frinds have to be there, if they are there, the I can assume that religion allows pets, otherwise there is no heaven ergo no religion. The bible states as you have done to the least of these you have done unto me. Any relion that does not allow or include animals is bogus tinker toy religion.
