For fundamentalist Christians anticipating a call to Heaven on Saturday for the widely publicized and controversial Rapture, there is peace of mind to be had for the pets they are leaving behind.
According to Harold Camping, a Christian radio broadcaster and president of Family Radio, 200 million believers will be raptured and taken to Heaven, leaving the “unsaved” population left behind until five months later, when it's predicted that Earth and the universe will be destroyed.
For those believers who are concerned about their animals' welfare during that period, atheist Bart Centre is offering a policy of sorts that provides Rapture believers reassurance—even if Camping's particular prediction is incorrect.
