I'd like to know exactly what IS heaven like anyway? And if Jesus forgives everyone, does that mean we are all without sin and we all get a free ticket? And if that's not the case, and only those without sin get to go, does that mean, that you can't commit sin in heaven? I mean. That would be pretty boring, wouldn't it? Life after death, eternal life without anything fun... that would be hell for everyone. Imagine craving a beer, and then all of sudden, there's Jesus. "Oh man, we just wanted a beer, can we drink? Oh, but don't get drunk? What, I can't hit on that girl either? That's lust!? I wasn't lusting after her! What?! I'm not lying! Jesus Christ, man! Give me a break!" And at that point you go down to hell with the rest of population, right? Hell must be a very busy place, don't you think? I think people need to seriously stop and think about what they are believing in. Isn't real life good enough to just embrace it and not worry about what comes "after" death?

Heaven is the union of God and man.

Heaven is much like this life...you will still be you...sin never is happiness.
If I might say this in a humble way, you have many misunderstanding about the very basic ideas of heaven and of the Atonement of Christ. I really want to explain but I just don't have enough time to write that much. Feel free to e-mail me if you want and I'll give it a shot. :o)
Search for truth, not a belief system that fits your own truth.

Do you think any of us would really know?
Even if we did- do you think you would believe us?
What do you really want to know?
"Isn't real life good enough to just embrace it and not worry about what comes "after" death?" - that is exactly my philosphy.
(ahh, hate this question- I know only one good dirty joke- and it is JUST like this... girl of moderate sin gets a choice between heaven and hell- one day in each to test... ahh won't finish- children might read)

You want to know the truth? Nobody knows what is heaven really like. They are just imagining things. Heaven is far better than that. It is His promise.

ive heard you have to take a test first before you enter
you go through a tunnel and then it divides into two paths one is heaven and the other is hell and you must trust your instinct because there are many temptations in each path but the one u least expect is the correct one
i would hate to go through that
i hope its not true

in Islam we were told about the things that will happen in the after life for both believers and sinners, but when it comes to heaven (no body knows any thing except that it is a good place)

A totalitarian regime, occupied by pretentious and sanctimonious, scaredy-cats too frightened to take a chance on it all being Büllshït, run by the worst tyrant in all of fictional history.

Use your imagination....maybe when you die, you die into your imagination, so if you believe in a liberal heaven, you gonna have fun...otherwise say hello to George Bush (jk, but I couldn't resist) :)

Wouldn't it be great if you only loved doing the things that were right and useful?

If it exists... no one knows because you can't communicate from the beyond.
