And why do Christians look up when speaking about Heaven and point to the sky when giving thanks?

that's because heaven is a superdense micro-black hole that's orbiting the earth, I thought everyone knew this

We automatically look up when speaking of heaven and down when speaking of hell. Why? Because we are human. Really, we have no idea where heaven and hell are. You can't reach them with any amount of technology. You are talking about the spiritual world. And the human world is nothing compared to the spiritual world. A telescope is not going to give us the key to all of a sudden see into the spiritual world.

Do you have any idea of the size and scope of the heavens. The Hubble Space Mission has hardly scratched the surface. There are billions upon billions of galaxies out there, never mind the black holes and whats at the other side of them. God created all and is King over all of it. We think we're clever because we've manged to get to see a few planets up close. The bible tells us that even the highest of the heavens can't contain God. Don't try to put Him in a little human box.

A stupider battery of questions, that could also be construed as an intelligent one is this...
When we look up, are we looking up? I mean what determines up? Gravity? But what about space? There isn't any gravity, so when your floating around praying where to you lift your hands?
Is the Hubble telescope realing even pointing up? How do we know it isn't pointing over, or down for that matter?
Answer that commie.

Just because when you look up into the sky and don't see heaven with your little microscopes does not mean that it is not there. Why do you think that God gave us all different languages when we were building the tower of Babel. So we couldn't just walk into Heaven. And we look up towards the Heavens because that is where God resides.

Only an atheist would be so ignorant as to ask that question.
Heaven isn't even a part of the physical universe, so it can't be see with physical eyes.
Those who only see the physical live in a "small world". This universe is huge but limited.
Loose your limitations. Have faith.

You can't just find Heaven like that! You have to believe in it with all your body and soul. Once you are saved and accept Jesus Christ as your savior(and you die) you will see what Heaven is. But you can't just say oh yeah I believe in God so I'm going to heaven. You have to truly put all your trust and faith in Him.

Hello when asked when the kingdom of God will appear Jesus Christ the Second member of The Godhead gave This response, in Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
In 1 Thess. 4:13-18 The manor of His return is outlined but first before that happens for those planing to go to The Kingdom of God the Kingdom of God MUST come within them "FIRST" before being ready to go to that kingdom and be at home there, find out details free bible lessons www.amazingfacts.org talk to me also wgr88@yahoo.com God bless

Maybe they need to adjust the lenses again.
I think space telescopes are great.

Anyhow, Heaven should be pretty close if God felt threatened enough by a Babylonian tower to have to destroy it before it reached Heaven.

Because that is what people believed before science proved there are other planets in the universe. People use religion to answer the unknown and at that time what was "above" us was a mystery.

Because it is only visible to "spiritual" eyes. If it were here on Earth, it would be visible to all. See?
Jesus DID ascend into heaven and it was UP and you can only find Him when you are truly seeking..., you WILL find.
