here and now is heaven and people just don't realize it? Would all it take to believe this be a simple realignment of their perception of relality? Wouldn't you like to be able to believe this is true?

A couple of years ago my husband took "A Course in Miracles" by the local New Age guru. The upshot of that "course" was this: we determine our reality by our own desires and perceptions. In other words (and confirmed by the course teacher), those who suffer in this life REALLY WANT TO, DEEP DOWN. Those who are starving to death, want to do so. Those who suffer war, want the bombs dropped on them. Those afflicted with disease and pestilence, really desire it! If we have a rotton life, it is because we do not "choose" to percieve perfection.
Sounds like you have something in common with the teacher.
We do not change reality by "percieving" otherwise. We can only avoid reality, and that only mentally, by diving into a delusion. Heaven is not on earth. Not now, at any rate. I can read about Paradise in Revelation, and then I can look outside. Where I percieve pain and suffering, I do not find the Kingdom of God.

what if the heavens and hells require an entry level to enter it so we all have a base starting point to sepperate out the lambs from the goats.
sort of a way to get a base rating that also gives us the tickett into the ether realms ,we are in our creation all equal ,then depending on our test scores given admition based on our entry score
or our love /base level or our hate ,guilt levels ,thus all be revealed as equal

Well no. If this were heaven then why would we need the bible, scriptures in general, friends and so on. In heaven everything and everyone will make sense and there will be no need for any of these foolish days.

Truthfully if this is heaven then I have a serious issue with it. I love life but this is not paradise. I would have so many questions as to what I have done to deserve what is happening in my life.

bingo !!
this is what i truly believe and i will tell you why
i done a little experiment with perception
i ask my children ( 5 , 9 and 15 ) to each describe the scenery outside the window in as much detail as poss
the oldest said , i see green grass a couple of green and brown trees a bit of yellow
the middle one said , i see green grass but shades of green , trees of different shades of green and brown and a bit of yellow
the youngest one told me about the purples and pinks and oranges with the greens and browns and yellow and of course lots of gold
now i truly believe that children ( especially young children ) are closer to spirit than we could ever imagine ... and i found it amazing that she could see all these beautiful colours in a plain old scene
and when she pointed them out to me , i could also see it
everything is about perception xx
