Would werewolves be aloud into Heaven?

This just poped into my mind, but what happens after a werewolf dies. Do they go into Heaven or Hell.

Any theries?

Depends on how anal you think God is.

Me personally, I think of Heaven more as a state of mind than an actual location, so whether or not they would "get in" would vary from one werewolf to another.

Well, Im not very anal about it, but like I said just an idea that popped into my head. I was thinking about traditional belief on how if you live by the word of god when you pass on you will be admitted to heaven. Would werewolves be eligible for entry?

This is a huge can of worms topic. Formulating theories first means buying into pre-existing theoretical notions as-is. Not all of us believe in Heaven and Hell. Those who do have different beliefs about what constitute criteria to get in. I don't personally get to weigh in, because my belief structure does not include Hell.

But, if you do believe in those two realms, I would have to ask why a werewolf would be by default sent to one or the other, rather than being judged on merits like everyone else? Simply being something rather than something else seems dreadfully arbitrary--without getting into the logistics issues that could easily lead to nasty arguments, quite possibly directing all of us downward in flames.

Neither, because there is no heaven or hell.

Shhhhh, don't say that, you'll wake the beasts from the forbidden Herp-Derp realm, who'll never listen to reason.

Too bad there are no spoiler tags on this forum then. :C

I like this explanation. Not every culture believes in heaven or hell so to ask such a question, its almost like you are singling out one particular sect in history and asking them, based on their beliefs. This is all in the belief that there is any sort of after life in the first place. Different cultures have different ideas and forms of what heaven may even be in fact and it takes different strides to get there. Its really a vague question to ask for an even more vague topic.
