I actually do believe there will be animals in heaven. Here's what the Bible says about animals:

The scriptural reason is that only man is created in God's image. God willed for all men (and women) to habituate the Earth as a paradise. Animals were not made in God's image, so don't have this hope. Once the new system of things takes place, all the animals that are on Earth will live forever, just like humans.

Because insects and non human animals have long since EVOLVED
beyond the point of most modern day
religionists.

Because there is a spiritual evolution. The spirit souls when they come to the material planets first they come in the lower species of life (such as insects, etc.). Spirit souls eventually will inhabit a body of a human after taking birth throughout all other species including plants, aquatics, etc.

Of course there is a heaven for insects and other animals.
Humans haven't earn the privilege to join them. The human
spirit is still impure as can be seen in their quarrels.

I personally believe that the animal kingdom has more right to Heaven than any human being that ever walked!! So ignore the narrowminded christian opinion on animal souls, and believe what makes the most sense to YOU.

That is kind of a dumb statement. If you believe they were here long before us then you are an evolutionists and reject creation. So if you don't believe in the account of creation, then why would you believe in heaven, which comes out of the same book that creation came out of, the Bible.

Would you like to go to your heaven and still be bitten by Mossies and Midgies?
