It seems to me that christians enjoy tossing the "you will burn in hell for opposing my beliefs" stuff around...is there a special room in heaven where you people can laugh and giggle at those who will be suffering for eternity? I am sure that your overblown egos will need to be fed even after you are all dead....yes???

oh i'm sure there is. how could Christian heaven be Christian heaven for the saintly ones if they don't have the oppertunity to lounge on their golden thrones while calling down "neener neener! told ya so!" to the nonChristians writhing in teeth gnashing agony below in Hell? i bet Jesus will have the angels serve refreshments of Pepsi, popcorn and pizza rolls.
eternal torture and woe! now that's entertaiment!

I've only seen a very few people toss around the "you're gonna burn" crap, and they are usually posers, ie NOT CHRISTIANS. Those that are, and do, are either mis-informed about a Christian's proper conduct, or are just pissed off.
To answer your actual "heavenly window" question, the answer would seem to be "NO". Jesus told one story about 2 men separated at the point of death; one went to heaven, the other to hell. While the man in hell could see into heaven, the man in heaven didn't seem to be aware of the man in hell. The only person talking to Mr. Toasty was "Abraham", symbolic for a messenger .

Luke 16:19-28 does state that people in heaven and hell can see each other. Of course, this presents the problem, if you're in heaven, supposedly an eternal paradise where suffering doesn't exist, how can you look down and see people you love burning in unspeakable, never-ending torment, and not suffer?

I, for one, don't want to watch anyone roast. Maybe people are "tossing" that stuff at you in hopes that you'll be saved, not because of ego.

I really hope so! And I hope there is a front row seat for people like Charles Manson (if he asked forgiveness of course!) and Ted Bundy!!!!

nah my dad, who was a lapsed presbyterian always said there was a brick wall where all the fundagelicals thought they were there all by themselves.
When we get to heaven we forget all those earthy aggrivations supposedly or so I've been assured by ministers and priests.

People will be judged after death as they judged others in life. According to "forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors." so, no. No magic window.
