All very reasonable questions.

Their spirit resides in what has been labelled as the Spirit World, some people prefer the term Heaven, Paradise etc.

They do indeed function in the same way that we do now, but without the constraints of a physical body. We are all actually spirits now, but encased in a physical body.

Yes, all animals that have a spirit/soul go into the world of spirit after leaving their physical body on this physical plane of existence.

Smaller things like ants, fleas etc are said to go there collectively. I've never come across any to my knowledge (only ever had spirit cats and possibly a dog come on visitation), but that doesn't mean that this theory is (or isn't) true. I do tend to believe it though and the words of the hymn 'All Creatures Great and Small' is my reasoning.

Sadly, that member does seem to struggle with debating matters in a respectable and sophisticated manner.

I totally agree with your excellent post as there are far, far more things about our existence and the world around us that we don't know than what we have discovered thus far. Yes, over the years we have come leaps and bounds, but I still think we are only just discovering the tip of the iceberg.


Thank you mystic mug
