In other words, suppose I want heaven to be double religious instruction and bible classes, and somebody else wants it to be whiskey, loose women, and gambling. do we both get what we want?

If I had the mind of God, yes. Otherwise, I am incapable of understanding what it is really like. 1 Corinthians 2:9; 1 Corinthians 13:11-13. On the other hand, I am willing to trust God and Jesus that it will be better for me than anything that I can imagine. Why limit my thinking about Heaven to what is known to me on Earth or wish for things that are contrary to God's will? Nothing sinful will be there anyway. Revelation 21:27.

Keep thinking about the logistics of Heaven. It makes no sense. If heaven is different things to different people, than that means each individual person in heaven is in their own separate 'heaven matrix.' Think about it, if heaven for you is having X, Y and Z around, but Z doesn't really like you much, then you'd be sad because they'd stay away... but in your heaven 'matrix' a copy of Z will hang out with you, because that's what you wanted.
Alternatively, people will claim that somehow, in someway, they'll be content with whatever heaven is. Isn't that odd? What if heaven is just praising God forever? Most people would get bored with going to church a couple of hours 7 days a week, imagine being there 24/7! God would have to remove your free-will to get you to go along with that!
Is there free-will in heaven or are you a robot?

heaven is being with God. it isn't a place where God lives, it is God. so what you don't want to get caught doing in front of God here on earth you wont be doing in heaven either. so with the immoral stuff you mentioned no, sorry. there will be no more evil, death, pain, crying or tears.

since the religious concept of heaven for most requires death there really is no answer for this even for the confounded believer of which I will never become . dream on...
