why are you negative people even in the religion and spirituality section? people are entitled to their beliefs and opinions without being brought down. i don't know what i believe but i don't bring you down.
people who do have faith are really lucky to! i wish i had 100% faith.

Read this online book about a young woman who was given a personal guided tour of heaven and hell back in the 1840's :

Why are people so mean that is not a stupid question. But he sounds like a very uneducated man who gets his kicks from hurting girls.
In the bible in Luke 20:34 says the children of this world get married but in the next or heaven we won;t. There is neither male nor female. The angels or spirit persons do not eat or drink unless they make human bodies to do so.
It says that flesh and blood cannot inherit heavenly kingdom.
So it is not something visible to humans.
However, remember Jesus said Matthew 5:5 that the meek will inherit the earth. So there will be people who live with human bodies on this earth forever.
Psalms 37:9,10,11,29 it says this earth will be here forever and have people on it. so that may be something you want.

Well, Revelation 22 makes it pretty clear there will be no more tears after the Great White Throne, so I doubt you will feel sadness AFTER that point, but many (all) will feel sadness and remorse at the Bema Seat surely, as well as sadness watching sinners be condemned to a Godless eternity at the GWT.
Surely you will be able to think and interact, the Bible makes some aspects of life in Heaven clear, such as the foods and music...besides, if you WERE a thoughtless automaton, you wouldn't know it, so why get upset about it? =)

No one knows.
Your ideas about what happens next are just as valid as those which came from the men who wrote books now considered to be holy.
Utopian thinkers say that a utopia is impossible because of boredom. They indicate that boredom kills any utopia.
The whole concept of a utopian heaven convinces workers to accept hard work, low pay, and general misery, because they receive great rewards after they die, and infinite holidays.
Can we think of a scenario where God’s Shangri-La somehow takes care of boredom.
How about dead loved ones returning, looking and feeling like I did when I was 25, forever!!! What fun.
How about every dead human in history, with stories to tell of the days on earth when evil existed competing with good. Interesting!!!

The spirit and soul that's in you now does all that on earth. Your spirit and soul never dies, when you reach heaven you would feel love like never before felt, no pain. Yes of course you can interact, and on a whole new level, basically telepathically if you chose to. Since the creator is the same, heaven is like earth, except there is no darkness, no shadows, and no brown leaf.... there is no death, just light......everything is living.
Since everything on earth is temporary, except the spirit and soul..... you'll see soon enough:)

Only joy. No sadness. Of course we will be able to interact. How else would we be able to partake in the "Wedding Feast?"
If you can, get the book "90 Minutes in Heaven" by Don Piper. It's about a Pastor who was in a car accident, and was dead for 90 minutes. He describes what he sees, hears, and feels. It is amazing!

yes you can still think, you can still interact with your friends and family, in fact even if you never knew your grandmother on this earth, you will know her in heaven. You can still feel love, joy, happiness,peace, etc. but there is no sadness or pain.

In the Bible it says You you will interact with others who have passed on who knew Jesus as their Savior.Yes you can think better than ever.
there will be New Bodies in heaven new everything.
It will Be More Wonderful than I could ever say. But do u know Jesus as Your Savior, who lives in your heart and are you obeying His 10 commandments? You can't live with your boyfriend & get to heaven also.

You will feel every positive emotion that you currently feel. You will be more alive than you are now and yes, you will interact with people.
