The room I am sitting in right now is 67F. Is this normal or is something wrong with our heater?

Well, does it feel cold to you? If it does, turn up your thermostat. I have mine set, during the day when no one is home to 62 from 8am on, then it kicks up to 70 at 5, when I get off of work, then 72 at 9 for downstairs, and 10 for upstairs. Then its just a nice 72 all night long.
If you think your heater may not be working properly, give us some symptoms it may be having. It may be that it is on a timer, and may be set at 67 now, and is warmer later. Or it may be that the pilot, or igniter is not working, causing only forced air, not forced WARM air, to come through.

Right now my home is at 50 degrees, but that's because I am not living there at present and I keep at that temperature to avoid pipes freezing. But when I am living at the house, I keep temperature at 65 the lowest and 75 the highest. When it's a really cold night I will sit with a throw cover on while watching TV, but if I am moving around I find 65 is fine.

I like to keep my house between 72-74, but if it's really cold outside it can make your house a little colder. I know I live in upstate NY and this morning outside it was only 10 with 5 or so with the wind chill. So our downstairs was 67 as well. As the day went on tho it did get warmer. If your house stays at a constant 67 I would have it looked at. Hope this helps

I could live with 60 in the winter and 75 in the summer. Being winter, it is about 61F here, for the sun has been out all day...that will change soon, though and hit the 40's. You home will be at whatever you set your thermostat to come on.

well that depends what your themostat is set at. if you want it warmer you need to turn the heat on and raise the temp. i'm in "soflo" so no heat here :)
