Would you truly want to live forever knowing that you could never sin and nothing would be the same as it was here on earth? I for one hope I just black out and thats the end because I would go insane with boredom being forced to live forever! For those who do believe in heaven, do you think you should be offered the choice?

Onyx - You truly believe that we have these 100 or less years on earth as a test? To see if we are worthy to live forever in heaven? Why would we have to suffer on earth for that to happen? Why are babies killed by tornados?

To me I believe I would be bored to death with Heaven.I couldn't last two days. Maybe if they allowed sex but I hear that's a no no in Heaven. Just go on and let me return to dust and scatter my remains in the wind. Offered a choice? I dont think I want one.

As far as I know I've never been dead, so I have no experience to put forward.
And I haven't been to heaven yet.
But I'd like to go. Living forever? Heck yes. I've got a few relatives I'd like to look up there and I would thoroughly enjoy asking Jesus a few questions and maybe sharing some time with my savior.
I am assuming that heaven is not like anything we have experienced on Earth. That we will have no sense of time, no urgency to go anywhere, no desire to sin, but opportunities to experience good things we can't even imagine.
You have to think outside the box a little. Can you explain infinity sufficiently to tell me what's beyond our known universe? Or to tell me exactly what is forever, and what will be after all this ends?
I trust God enough that if he honors me by allowing me to enter heaven that it will be something I will enjoy, that I will never experience boredom and that I will have no sense of being forced to do anything.
We have a choice. We can be unforgiven and hell may be something as simple as the eternity you imagine, merely being separated from God.
And, in my heaven, people don't go insane.

I agree,living forever means I'm going to be alone in this world sooner or later,seeing everyone that I know dies. If not, I would live with boredom,nothing to do. Yes, I do rather go to heaven, because I want to be happy forever. As for just being dead and never heard of again,I don't want to,imagine all the things I did before,all my efforts will be wasted. I want to be remembered

It is not the living forever part that I want most but the seeing the Face of Jesus who will be my King. Knowing His love and learning all about the whole everything will take forever, I am sure. I just can hardly wait to hear Jesus laugh. I sound corny, but I have seen too much of this worlds evil not to hope for some place where love rules.

You are already under the assumption that never sinning would not be fun. That living forever would get boring. or would be boring. And who says nothing would be the same as it is here on earth? Being forced to live forever? who would force you to? Last I checked you choose to follow God and you choose heaven.

If heaven is just a little room with peeling paint and a naked lightbulb, I still want to be there. I have spent 27 years getting to know my Lord and I want very much be with Him, in person, forever, regardless of whether or not I can even fathom forever right now. I am looking forward to it and do not wish to have a choice at all.

it's sad that some people still don't know what a hypothetical question is... in my opinion living forever would be great... there's tons of things to learn if heaven has roads, trees, gold, pearls, im thinking inventing stuff out of these things will have no boundaries

i dont think heaven is like living forever in a human body, but i will opt for the reincarnation bit i think. here and there , back and forth, old and new.

I think I would rather just black out. It would seem to be very tiring to live forever.

So you really think that there is a choice? I think that when you die that is all there is to it. you die, just like your computer does if you unplug it. If you want to ask where a soul goes it goes the same place as old computer programs do.
