[What will heaven be like]
Let's see, I imagine it as (from what I read) the pearly gate (carved out of 1 Pearl) will be the first thing you see as you walk through them you see the Golden streets, the Golden Mansions, I imagin soem grass with all kinds of flowers, the river of life flowing right beside the golden streets, and 1 BIG golden castle inside being the place where Jesus and God live with God and Jesus' Golden throne and the emerald rainbow surrounding it, all in a 12000 furlong tall, wide, and length area (The pearly gate is on the border). and 12000 furlongs is approx. 6,984,000 feet. So heaven is approx. 6,984,000 feet tall, long, and wide. That's pretty big

Glyptodon - It always amuses me when these people seem to think they're among the 144,000 most righteous people in the history of the world. After all, their own bible says that that's how many people will be "saved" from the torments in the Revelation.other things in the Bible are symbolic, too!
...
Riiiiiiight.
It's like pretty-pretty-princess heaven! Oh goody, I totally wanted to live forever in a golden mansion with flowery grass, you know, when I was like, five.
12.000 furlongs is exactly 7.920.000 feet. Which makes heaven even emptier I'm sure.
Again with the obsession with gold. It's USELESS, people! The only reason it's worth anything at all is because it's difficult to mine, not to mention the enormous social momentum it's gathered over the millennia.

But how is the cell phone coverage? I mean, I ain't gonna get stuck for eternity with, like, 1 bar of signal and no way to get my text messages.
@Redhunter
What the fuck are 144,000 virgin men going to do for eternity?
@Redhunter
What the fuck are 144,000 virgin men going to do for eternity? @AdrianYou've really got to wonder, why would Gawd decide that the way He wants to spend His eternal retirement is with 144000 virgin males... Rather telling, isn't it? In that line of thought, and considering Biblegod's well-documented pettiness, commanding to put homosexuals to death just to make sure that no "spoiling" of a guy He had His eye on goes unpunished would be rather in character, wouldn't it?
And there will be rainbows made of gumdrops, and chocolate bunnies hopping around, and Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and Mother Goose will all be there...
Heaven Cube is also, of course, fitted with twenty Photon Torpedo launchers, eighty phaser banks, a Cloaking Device, and enough Seven of Nine Look-alikes to give you a boner stiffer than Iron.

that poor oyster, it must have stung like hell getting that pearl out.
Seriously, God's child can't be more than 10. Please tell me this is a kid, otherwise my faith in the species is faltering
Cool,,, 12,000 furlong cube. That's 3,375,000,000 cubic miles. 144,000 saved, gives each one 23,437.5 cubic miles each. Give each a circular area a mile high, and he has a circle about 175 miles in diameter. Pretty empty place, heaven.
Emerald rainbow? Emeralds are one color. Rainbows are multiple colors. Which is it? Emerald or Rainbow?
Heaven must be pretty small if it's only about 1/3 the width of the USA. Even if there were enough people in there to make it standing-room only, that would still be a small percentage of souls from the last 6000 years to make it into Heaven.
Heaven is a giant cube-shaped city made of metal. Kewl.
Behold the face of Heaven, God's Child!image
Seriously, what a stunted and venal imagination you must have.
Yeah, if you give everyone a hectare of space, that would fit about 3/8 the world's current christians. Oh, except only 144 000 are saved. Now you have 6,3 kilometres to yourself. And if you don't waste all that empty above you, you get 45 kilometres of free floating around. But still, emeralds.
Oh yeah? Well, I'm going to build my own heaven!
What if what you're imagining is heaven for ANOTHER religion, and you'll never get in because you were worshipping the wrong god?
What evidence do you have that the heaven you're imagining even exists?
Oh, right, exactly the same amount of evidence that you have that your god exists...None.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
