The Holy Bible isn't the only scripture around.

Well, assuming you at least have some Christian beliefs, isn't the passage from Ecclesiastes that BBD posted evidence enough?

That's not what I meant. I was actually referring to something else. I tire of people trying to shut down a conversation by butting and saying something like "Can you prove of God's existence?" when they cannot
disprove of it.
Guy One: I believe in God.
Guy Two: Can you prove that God exists?
Guy One: Sure. The scriptures are big enough of a hint. If that's not enough. The entire cosmos is evidence of God's existence.
Guy Two: But you can't show to me God right now, can you? Hence, you cannot prove His existence. All your other points are irrelevant.
Guy One: They aren't irrelevant. And besides, that's where faith comes in.
Guy Two: Faith, shmaith. You, sir...phail.
Now
that's what I was referring to. Behelmuth's retort reminds me a lot of that. Or at least that's where the conversation would evolve into, as a lot of religion-related topics I've seen here do.
I'm sure people recognize from the above link that I'm LDS. In other words, yes, I'm of Christian faith.
What I meant when I said this:

It's an up-in-the-air belief. Meaning I don't know whether to accept it or not. However, I do believe that animals go to Heaven.

...Is that I believe that animals go to Heaven, but I won't lose sleep over it since I'll find out when I die.
