That heaven is actually on earth.Think about it, not just heaven, hell also, we have saddest and happiest moments here.
Also how come 90% of you does not believe in God here?Well at least what i saw so far, because like 99% of the people here in Serbia believe in God(Probably cause thats the only thing we hope that can save us)...haha

hey Nik!
you just define "saddest" and "happiest" here because you haven't experienced what heaven/hell is like and so you can't compare . . . so technically, we can only say that those are RELATIVELY happy/sad moments we are experiencing.
and i don't believe in a god, at least in the conventional sense. the term "god" for me is the unknown or something that is beyond my comprehension (it could be a superior force or dark matter/energy). i don't really believe in a heaven or hell, but i think that ppl just have this idea coz it kinda gives them a goal, motivation or hope in this life, something to look forward to, a reason for living.

Well maybe. But what we have here is a space God gave us, and we made it a hell and heaven. But yeah when I think about it maybe u r right. That's life, there's good and bad, we just have to pick a side. There is also good and bad in all of us. Heaven and hell everywhere.
But now, in the 21st century, I don't know what to think. I'm not really educated about it (uvek sam isla na gradjansko lol), so does it mean the bad side, as in Satan, has come to rule this world? I think we, the people, made this world a bad place. But there is an afterworld. We don't know what happens there.
Yes u r absolutely right we all do believe in God. Some have just lost their hope because of mostly politics or death of their loved ones. I am Orthodox Christian and very proud.

One of my best friends is Serbian. She's an Atheist by the way.
Yes, Heaven is on Earth because this is all we have and it is wonderful. However shitty life seems, for the majority of us, it is better that we experienced life than not at all. We are the lucky ones. The probability that a given being gets conceived and lives to tell the tale is 'miraculous' in itself. Like the old adage says "it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all". I like to say: It is better to have lived and died than to have never lived at all. And as Dr Who once aptly said " some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80".
This is not a dress rehearsal. This is all we have. As I have already stipulated; we are improbable beings, that have had the unbelievable good luck to have seen the 500,000 mile diameter ball of thermo nuclear riot that we call the sun, rise above the thick vapours of nitrogen of our atmosphere, turning the sky into a kaleidoscope of colour, breathed the fresh air of the new day and said thank you for being alive. Yes, we most certainly are already in Heaven.

If we are living in heaven, that just sucks. A lot of people on here don't believe in God because there are so many Gods to believe in and they don't know who to choose. Another reason is there isn't any solid proof of God. Another reason is because life has been hard for them and they don't think a God would do that. Those are just a few of the many reasons.

I believe in God... but I kinda have a twist when it comes to after life... I'm religious but also realistic. I believe the thing I have to worry about now is now, not after death. To me the after life is more of a hope, I hope for a heaven or a place of peace and united souls, but at same time all we really KNOW about after death is in the form of body... You get buried or cremated [in most cases].
Life's good and bad, but to some extend believe is what keeps us going.

I believe there is a god!!!!
And I don't know if I am in heaven. Right now for me,it's more like the space between heaven and hell.

earth the earth that we are experiencing now is not heaven. the Bible tells us that the mind of man has not conceived the wonders God has in store for us. this is not hell either. hell will be much worse than anything a person has experienced here. and i am not one of the 90% you refer to.

The Kingdom of Heaven will be on earth, since God created it to be inhabited. No, we are definitely not in Heaven now. There is no sickness and death in Heaven.

I don't think hell is on earth.
I think we are living in eternity and that when we die we will go to heaven but we shouldn't be waiting for anything here.
