Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 04, 2012

The truth is revealed.

Is it sad that I find that very believable?

Ah, com’on! Dolphins and mice are the only reason the planet was created in the first place. Dogs aren’t even on the list.

but didn’t the dolphins and mice leave as soon as the highway was built?

It won’t be water, but fire next time …

And yet, cats think they are God’s Gift to Earth!

you won’t be doggoned yourself then, huh, lord?

No, I think God and cat’s are in cahoots. They both find dogs stupidly funny, kinda like the three stooges. They take turns going, “Watch this!”…………

If you ask me, dogs are the only positive change we’ve ever made to this planet.

A scene from the new DIsney film, “101 Damnations”.

So long, and thanks for all the fish…

I’m not a big fan of dogs. Grandchildren, on the other hand…

amen

That’s why dogs are man’s best friend.

The only religion that give back.

blow it up

Did you hear about the dyslexic insomniac agnostic? He stayed up all night wondering if there was a dog.

Sorry, folks; ’twas made for horses.

“If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.” ― Will Rogers “Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.” ― Mark Twain

“God forbid I should go to a heaven where there are no horses” – R. B. Cunningham Graham

Hear, Hear!

All those woe worriers have been saying for years that the world was going to the dogs. Little did they know!

Why not cats? Oh … I see. Cats got the internet.

@chireef, they left before the highway was built

Wiley, did Pam ever call?

God must be deaf because in my neighborhood there isn’t ONE dog (there are a million!) that DOESN’T bark seven days and seven nights! It’s a flippin’ nightmare…if I could get to sleep! (And yes, I blame the human owners who are totally clueless when it comes to training a “good” [and I say that loosely] dog!). Give me an indoor cat any day!

My kinda God , further , wonder what Place of Worship He might recommend , hmmm

I still prefer dogs to most people I know.

It’s been said that dogs don’t have a soul or a heaven. Stare into your dogs eyes sometime. While you’re doing that think of something your dog likes to do; walkies, milkbone treat, etc. Your dog will react accordingly. Don’t believe me? Try it! By the way; if you don’t relate closely with your dog, . . . Never mind. And if you have a cat, Don’t bother!

Well, this one’s obvious. Dogs are loyal, humble, and grateful. They love unconditionally, they will lay down their lives to save yours, and if you hit one he’ll lick your hand. Dogs are just about the only true Christians you’ll ever meet.

The more people I meet the more I like my dog, and I donT own a dog!

…thanks Fergus…(Odie, Rover, Marmaduke, ect…)

Not really a fan of dogs but now I guess I will respect them a little more now – preferable to being blown up.

Imagine. A God who judges. The implications are eternal.

Take that, cat lovers! :D

Lord God’s Best Friend is Lord Dog — “Dog” is simply “God” spelled backwards.

Understanding the nature of a dog is to understand the true nature of a god.

Woof. Learn more foreign languages…

I heard that.

Anyone remember Homer? That must be his dog.

Show me a person who doesn’t like dogs, I’ll show you a jerk. Show me a person DOGS DON’T LIKE, and I’ll show you an “A-hole”! Also, never, ever, seen a “mean dog” that didn’t belong to a mean man (or woman).

I think more people still own dogs than own cats, but people who own cats are more likely to keep multiples. At least, that’s how the number of cats initially passed the number of dogs.

Thank God for dogs!

If dogs are so great, then why is God talking to a chicken?!? Must admit, chicken tastes better.

In that case he (it?) might as well blow us up.

It’s very simple. He can’t just rescue the dogs, because they would all be miserable without their humans. My sister gave my Dad a Yorkie by sneaking up behind him and plopping it on his chest. He took one glance at my Dad, and utterly relaxed, looking worshipfully into his face. He’d found his Pawpaw, and that was all that mattered to him. Thirteen years later, he still spends time doing that… no way would Heaven be Heaven to him, if his Pawpaw wasn’t there…

The global collective unease when all that’s left of Dogs are the collars on the ground

Ain’t it the truth….

Guess that solves the mystery of who will be “saved” when the “glorious prediction comes true.” (credits to Peter Berryman).

If you don’t Sheol the litter box regularly, it smells like Hades.

Amen and Amen. If there are no dogs in heaven I am not going.

This might be a bit off topic but I remember watching ABC News reporting from Japan right after the huge earthquake. Diann Sawyer interviewed a rescue worker that spoke of a stray dog pestering them and, just like in the movies, the rescue worker guessed the dog wanted him to follow. Well… he did and the dog led him to another dog that was injured and unable to walk. The first dog laid down next to his pal and whined for the man to help.To me, that sounds like compassion, forethought, trust and deep friendship.Would a cat, or any other animal, do that?

Actually a goose will stay with a fallen partner, usually shot by a ‘human’, until that goose is also killed by the lovely hunter. There are many ‘animals’ that behave more humanly than the so called humans on this planet. Pretty much the message here people. As for cats, pretty much out for themselves, just like humans. Its hard for a lot of people to have that kind of mirror in their face, so they get a dog instead. Also, dog is god backwards.

Here’s a story that complements your cartoon perfectly. Folks looking for a missing farm dog found him under a bridge, cuddled protectively around an abandoned newborn who had been left to die. Baby is fine. dog is stellar. http://shine.yahoo.com/pets/dog-rescues-abandoned-newborn.html

I agree

The only thing that survived the last time the world was destroyed, millions and milions and millions of years ago, were rats, cockroaches and sharks.
