I have received 10 answers so far, but no one has really expressed what they've read from the link I have provided. Or is it just because no one is taking the time to bother?

God's Kingdom is the one God promises will never be brought to an end. It will be the one with the solution to all humans problems. Daniel 2:44
I read your link. My answer still stands as how Daniel 2:44 describes it.

The article examines the bible very well. Jesus gave us Matt.6:9-11; It does involve heaven and earth, Matt,22:37-40; Jesus expresses, how he feels and how we should fell about his Father.
John 17:1-26; He prayed for his heavenly body to be with him, the heavenly over the earthly.
Matt.24:3 [ the 2nd coming of Jesus that brings everlasting life, and is the end of this world of death, rebeling people and Satan ], 7 [ where major wars
destroy so much ], 14 [ before the end of this world of death, rebeling people and Satan, Jesus wants everyone to know his kingdom is coming to give life
and the more that know and believe, the less rebels ], 15 [ Daniel's end time prophecy is involved, he handles Satan Rev.12:3,4,6-11,12; so the heavenly body raised up in the last day has Satan under their feet John 6:39,40,44; 14:3; Rom.16:20; 1Thes. 4:15-17; Satan has a short time ], 21 [ the tribulations for believers is, there will be mass rebels, 2Tim.3:1-7; perilous times [ non-believers no in a tribulation, they do not care ], and the comfort is the kingdom is coming, Jesus will handle it all, Rev.7:9-17; great is the multitude on the other side of the tribulation to be in the kingdom ].
2Pet.3:13;
We have never been in a new heavens and a new earth.
1Cor.15:22-28,51 - 53;
Here we were born to die, there we are resurrected, the heavenly for the new heavens Rev.3:12; the earthly for the new earth, Rev,20:1-6,12,13; the heavenly are with Jesus Rev,21:1-5; to make all as new as before Eden,
the end of his 1000 year reign with no Satan, [ Rev.20:7-10 ]; the perfect has eternal life in the paradise Jesus promised Luke 23:43; Rev.2:7; there is no place for rebels. They have no one to blame.

Why do the Witnesses always have to dwell on the negative?
Be at peace and leave people alone. The people who want to join you will seek you out on their own. If you believe that your path is the only path, you will learn that you are the one who is lost.
Edit: I've read it. I just don't believe in the Adam and Eve story. I believe most of the bible is a story book to get people to understand how to behave properly, and it includes a lot of people's different ideas about God. I sort of believe in God. I try to follow the teachings of Jesus and consider myself a Christian; a non-practicing Roman Catholic that likes the ceremony of the Church but thinks it needs to wake up and modernize its views a bit. (I feel that God doesn't care about the ceremonial bits, but it gives you something to watch while you think about things).
I'm not worried about the end of the world, heaven or if there is or isn't somewhere for my soul to go when I die. Next you'll be telling me that any angel that anyone has seen is Lucifer and by merely catching sight of one I have committed a sin against all mankind.

It will be a place of no sin, no pain, no death no tears. That place will be here on earth the New Jerusalem,the New Heaven, where Jesus Christ God Almighty will live and walk among those who have been baptized and have followed the Commandments and that have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior

THIS is Gods kingdom. He created it, we keep screwing it up. Bible history says that His wrath came down upon those who chose to not repent and follow his teachings. Its all over the scriptures. It will happen again and the cleansing will come and Jesus will return. Then the suffering will stop.

Honestly, I agree with the Bible, which you seem to be doing as well, however, this is more spamming than a true question, no offense.

Heaven is God's Kingdom and is perfect. If you are a Christian you have nothing to worry about, otherwise you have nothing to look forward to.
