The comment in revelation was about people who have no more
morals than dogs. They will not be in Heaven, and so
obviously, the dogs that they are compared to will also not be there.
Dogs were ranked along with swine by the Jews, and that is about
as low as it gets .(See Matthew, "Do not give that which is Holy
to dogs, do not cast pearls to swine.)
As to my sensitivity; it has been suggested that it could be improved.
I suspect that this is so.
Blessings,
Terry

You aren't serious here are you? Surely you are pulling TT's collective leg
by suggesting that the use of "dogs" in Rev 22:15 refers to actual canines.
Could "dogs" in this context be some figurative, idiomatic, or pejorative
use of the word that was common in the period in which the revelation was
written to refer to some group or class of people?

Really, Terry. "Dirt nap"? Shouldn't you be a little more sensitive?
