If heaven is real, how does everyone there get what they want?
- All it says is that no sin can enter there. In Christian ideas of heaven conflict is avoided because we sacrifice our free will. We no longer make choices of our own and therefore aren't in conflict because god won't force us into that.
In Islamic heaven each man gets a planet to himself. Another earth. Muslim and christian women go there to a man's world. If she's married she goes to her first husband (some people argue on that). The man gets a harem of eternal virgins.
In Mormon heaven they each become a god of their own worlds, not just another earth.0|00|0Is this still revelant?The idea is you go willingly. Christian hell isn't forever, you just die after that. Perma death. So only slightly worse than you expect as an atheist.

- You are assuming that you would still have the same mentality in heaven that you have here on Earth.
A person who lived in Las Vegas since the day they were born suddenly moved over to Switzerland and gradually adopts to the local customs, norms and overall lifestyle. The person then moves back to Las Vegas, will that person still be the same person or will that person be someone with a different mentality? The latter is usually true.
Yet here you are saying that a person in heaven would still be the same person he or she was here on Earth. It would be far more complex because you can’t compare people in heaven to people on Earth. People in heaven are souls/spirits who have left their physical bodies, while people on Earth are souls/spirits within their physical bodies.
You are trying so hard to understand something that can’t actually be explained by science. So just cause you can’t grasp the concept of heaven doesn’t mean it isn’t a real place.0|00|0Is this still revelant?Since you don’t have a physical body in heaven, you probably can.
What is your definition of “logical”?

- It's not real. That's like a fairytale you read to children to make them happy
It's so absurd people believe in this delusion without any concrete basis.
Just like we have fictional authors who write books , someone must have used their literary mind to cook up stuff and write the Bible , Quran , Gita etc. They all contradict each other what more proof does anyone want.
You really believe those books fell from the sky? Or the possibility a human wrote them0|10|0Is this still revelant? - Maybe because God is all powerful and is able to fill our hearts desire , but only according to his will. He's not gonna grant us anything that in opposition against his ways, beliefs or laws.
Personally, I don't believe we go to heaven when we die. If we did, we'd be angels in heaven, not humans. So we wouldn't have the same wants, needs and desires as we do as humans.0|00|0Is this still revelant?

37- Obviously it's not a real thing, but perhaps it could be a virtual reality for each person, where everybody you know isn't real, but behaves the way you wish they would towards you and each other? All of them could appear to be whatever age makes sense at any given moment; friends, family, pets... I think that would be nice.0|10|0
- There will be no more conflict, all who enter heaven have their place where all pain, suffering disappears. Not even Adam and Eve were in heaven from the beginning, heaven is beyond our human powers of imagination. It's like trying to explain to a monkey that there are planets, galaxies, burning gas masses, and so on.
We know exactly only from Jesus that everything is good and nothing is bad in heaven.0|00|0No one returned from heaven to tell us how it was. We are aware of heaven because God and Jesus told us about it and that it is a sinless world.
We can't even imagine how bad hell it is. Even if all possible atrocities have been written and said about it.
There are divine places to which mortals like us have no access with their eyes, ears, or thoughts.

But did the bible (or Christianity in general) claim that heaven follows the rules of game theory?
- Show All Show Less
Theory, rule, whatever. The whole idea of a concept like heaven is that it's beyond any earthly (i. e. physical) observation. Just like the concept of God. Isn't it?

I’ve been thinking after getting an idea of what you mean with your mother wanting to be with you but you feeling indifferent about it. I have the same feelings about that for reasons myself. Good question. I just don’t think about it though. I also think there are different levels of paradise up there
Well... then I’d ask, with all the mind tricks, optical illusions and hallucinations science has proven exists, how can you tell your Angel experiences from that?

I have no proof and my atheist friend was blind to a picture I showed him. It’s like the devil doesn’t want him to believe so he made him blind to it. The demon was behind him in the picture. I showed a priest, he saw it, and a few family members and my Catholic friend that gave them the chills. This guy read the Bible inside out and he hasn’t been convinced more that a God or afterlife exists. He has stacks of George Carlin books he’s read. I pray for him because he is a good guy, but he has a few demons. It’s ones like this who can be saved because they simply do not know but he lives a good life and volunteers.

No one is. I just don’t understand why God gave me the privilege to experience things and not everyone, because like I said, and with all the pain in this world, how can you fathom the fact that God would allow it? I still and always question this. My Catholic aunt thinks I don’t believe because I hound her with questions that she simply cannot answer. It doesn’t make sense to me
If you were born in India, wouldn’t you be Hindu? Why is geography a variable if Christianity is the one true religion?

Hi everyone who comes across my moments! I don’t mean to embarrass you! I have a lot of questions myself and super confused about what I believe! I’m not trying to educate anyone or turn people away to believe or no believe! I’m just being sincere about my experience and What I believe so take no offense! Please and thank you. @oddbeme you ignored my DM xoxo
- Anonymous1 moSo you're willing to believe in magic, but you're still saying something isn't possible?0|00|0
Philosophically speaking, eternal paradise for everyone isn’t possible. I’d want paradise without my mother. My mother would want paradise with me. See the conflict?
- because we already had it before we were born, we are just returning to it,,,0|00|0
What if my paradise is to be without my mother, but my mother’s paradise is to be with me?
I would say it was your destiny to have this soul as your mother on the earth plane, there was a good reason for it which you'll only find out when you go back to spirit,,,
