This was part of a prior response to a question I asked regarding perfect people in christian heaven -

"Hahaha, we cannot even fathom the awesomness that heaven will be, we cannot even pretend to try to reason what it will be like, so we cannot try to compare it to our standards of beauty and sadness and personality as we see them here in this lifetime."

If that's so, how come so many Christians on Yahoo! Answers have answered my prior questions by saying that in heaven there will be never ending paintball games and everyone will live in a mansion and drive electric golf carts down streets of gold before ditching them in crystalline seas while at the same time eating lots of chocolate, with nekkid ladies hanging off each arm, and firing guns into the air? Are those Christians deluding themselves? If so, shouldn't one of you tell them so? They may only be Christians because they think your heaven is a never ending shopping mall where everything is always on sale...

You might enjoy having a look at the book History of Heaven--it is an interesting look at how conceptions of heaven have evolved through the centuries and how these conceptions have arisen---ie what was at work in society at the time that caused heaven to be construed as it has been, and continues to be, judging from what you say above.

HEAVEN is so Unfathomable---how Unfathomable is it???? It is so Unfathomable that we will have to have our old Body's Recreated (Glorified) so that we can take all of it in and enjoy it to the Max.

I'm sure they were just joking. Your 2nd paragraph was right, no one really knows what heaven will be like, except we know it will be beyond spectacular!
