Why do humans get to go to heaven and not other animals specis?

Do other specis worship other God(s)??
Do ants,horses, even worship God?

Why are humans the only thing that can only worship?

If god created the specis, why didnt God list the specis he created?
Id god created the plants why doesnt he list the plants?

If its too long, then why didn't he write the book by himself?

They don't go to hell nor heaven, humans are the only ones being tested therefore humans are the only ones that will go to heaven or hell.

Only God knows for sure , however He did give us some evidence of all living things having a soul ! Man is the only species on earth that can sin , as we are the only creatures that God created that doesn`t do what God created us to do, and we must be Saved to get to heaven because of our human disobedience . All other creatures do what they were meant to do in their natural habitat . Animals therefore don`t have a sin nature , so I believe they will be in heaven not because they have to get saved to get in , but because it is stated in this passage that they have a soul , and a soul does not die **The King James Holy Bible says` in Job 12 : 9 -10 , Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of The Lord hath wrought this ; In whose hand is " the soul of every living thing ", and the breath of mankind . { Oh, by the way God has listed "all" His creations , just pick one out , and lo and behold you know what it is .}

Humans were created in gods image, not animals. Although he loves and cares for them, he placed them under mans dominion. As for the heavenly hope, he gives that to a small nimber of humans, and only humans. The majority of humans will eventually find everlasting life here on earth, on a globe that is free from wickedness. It was God's original purpose to have man reside upon the earh forever, a promise he gave to the first humans, Adam, and Eve.

Although they failed and plunged us all into this mess we call living, God can not lie, and even though our first parents gave us a death sentence, through Jesus we have hope. Psalm 37:9-11 and 29 clearly show that the wicked will be removed, peace will be on earth, and it will be forever.

The humans who live in heaven will have work to do. They will form a heavenly government, headed by God's son Jesus.

Humans were the only creatures created in God's image. They have an immortal or undying soul. Humans also have a free moral agent having the power to choose between good and evil. No other creatures of God, including animals have these attributes. The other creatures were made for man's comfort. No other species worship God, except heavenly angels and elders . God gave some power of creation to humans such as innovations. man gave name to animals.

No. Animals have no knowledege of God. They were not made that way. God made both animals and humans to live on earth. However, he made man in his image with the capacity to make choices, to reason, and to obey and worship him. Humans were made to live forever. If Adam and Eve had not rebelled they would still be alive today with the earth populated with perfect happy people living forever. Genesis 1:28. That's why Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God has set "eternity into the hearts" of mankind. That was God's purpose. That is still God's purpose. When humans die they return to dust .—to nonexistence— just as animals do. The Bible says: “As the [beast] dies, so the [man] dies; and they all have but one spirit . . . All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust.” (Ecclesiastes 3:19, 20) The Bible also says, “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all - - - - - .” (Ecclesiastes 9:5) When a person dies, “he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.”—Psalm 146:4. So we cease to exist when we die. But that does not mean that everything is finished. Those who die are in God's perfect memory . He will make them live again. Jesus said: “The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.”—John 5:28, 29. And Acts 24:15 says, “- - - there is going to be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous”. So even those who did bad things because they had not come to know the righteous standards of God will be brought back to life to be given that opportunity. What a just and merciful God! According to the Bible the resurrection will begin very soon. Bible prophecy indicates that in 1914 this world entered into its “last days.” (2 Timothy 3:1) In what many call ‘the end of the world,’ God will very shortly remove wickedness and establish a new world under heavenly rulership.—Matthew 24; Mark 13; Luke 21; Revelation 16:14. The result will be a paradise covering the whole earth and inhabited by those who have sincerely tried to serve God. Wicked people will not burn in hellfire, but they will have no place in the coming Paradise. At Psalm 37:10, 11, 29 we read: “The wicked one will be no more; and you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace. - - - The righteous themselves will possess the earth and they will reside forever upon it” That is God’s promise. The Bible says: “I heard a loud voice from the throne say: ‘Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.’”—Revelation 21:3, 4. God’s word always comes true. (Isaiah 55:11)

You're talking only about the Judaic/Christian/Islamic God. Not all religions believe in Hell.

I'm Hindu and we see animals as equals. We don't believe in "Hell" either. Humans worship because we have the ability to think about these kind of things. Almost all animals are instinctual, whereas we're more the thinkers. We've created these beliefs and ideas, and we are the ones who keep them strong and have faith.

The KJV Bible states in Isaiah 11:6=

"The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling (pig?) together and a little child shall lead them - and the cow and the bear shall feed, their young ones shall lie down together...". Animals *do* go to Heaven, my friend.

Animals do not go to hell. Animals return to the dust, from which they were created (in the beginning)

because god didn't write the bible, HUMANS wrote the bible for humans.

It is my personal opinion that Animals are the only group on earth that actually deserve to go to heaven because they are incapable of evil because evil requires knowing right and wrong and chosing wrong - animals can't do that, they do what is neccesary for survival, who can call that evil and hell worthy?

"Why should dogs not go to heaven? God created them to be loveable and loving, to be our companions in life. Why would He separate us in death?"
