Describe Heaven, tell me what this place is like.

I have some thoughts about it, but I'd like to see what others think for a little while.

I believe that if heaven exists it's a place where you can do all the things that were sins here on earth, I imagine it like a giant orgy or something like that.

or perhaps a place where you wouldn't suffer from temptations to commit the sins in the first place.

sins are sins for a reason, regardless of religious views sins tend to be things that can cause harm to yourself and/or others.

and how does checking out your neighbors wife hurt you or him? Religion is retarded.

last time i checked incest was illegal and a Sin, yet Noah put his family and animals in an arc then god commanded him to repopulate the earth, wouldn't that be a Sin / contradict everything he has ever taught them? that's how ive always shut up priests and nuns at church.

either way, Heaven everyone has their own perspective of it, and it usually suits their best interest. heaven ideally is what will make you happiest.

If there's a heaven, I don't think we could understand it, because we're alive. Never being hungry or thirsty or horny and not getting any, and always feeling loved and like your in the right place at the right time.

As long as I don't have to deal with traffic, 2Am bar curfews, and credit card bills, I will happily call that heaven.

Noah had like 5 sons and they were already married by the time the arc was built, so I guess at worst there was some cousin lovin.

I think the way I do about heaven because it's supposed to be a 'reward' for not sinning on earth, and I figured the reward would be freedom to do what you've held off on. Of course, you can't kill or hurt people or anything like that because everybody is already dead.

I see heaven as a moment of true happiness.

I think my personal heaven would be the entire family living under one roof, with Pops scolding/beating us all. Sounds twisted, but my family's got thick skin. We always pretended to hurt so he stopped. We always snickered.

Good god i miss those simplistic days.

WTF, we talk about religion here...????

Heaven must be simply an existence without pain, suffering, and struggle. Everyone's idea of what would be the coolest way to spend eternity is different, but nobody could deny that existing without having to deal with those emotions would be perfect.

Now this to me is a misinterpretation of the Bible. Yes Heaven is a reward of sorts but man is expected to sin.

Its not the act of not sinning that is rewarded. Its the act of trying not to sin. For we are not perfect and will sin.

If one tries not to sin then they have a conscious and a sense of ethics.

If we were indeed capable of not sinning at all we would either have to be monk or dead.

if you really follow the Bible? We were(man or his representatives) thrown out of the perfect place when we were perfect!

I.E. the story of the Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve. Now they were given exactly what Heaven is considered to be, but given of free will were tempted and sinned.

Now that story may have been allegorical i.e. to represent the tribes of man. Who knows.

Heaven is a higher state, one were everything we could not answer is answered. Where everything makes perfect sense and we do not have to suffer disease,pain, etc... and there is pure unconditional love.

Hows that for an explanation

Nothing wrong with that. Fact is people get caught up in believing Religion is what gets them to that higher plane.
Fact is Spirituality is the key. That and trying to live your life correctly and ethically. Not judgmental, not absolutely perfect just the right intentions and ethics.

Spirituality is taught by most conventional religion

The Noah part was already answered.

Checking out your neighbor's wife: Assuming you are referring to the bible in which they call it "lust", Unless you take action, you are only hurting yourself - what good will come out of wanting something you can't have? you're just wasting time and energy. If you are married, well that's self explanatory.

Why are you assuming that by "sins" i meant sins from a particular religion, namely Christianity? I'm not religious, sins can be anything that don't hold true to your own personal ideals.

Matthew 5:28-
"But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."

That's what the bible has to say about that, and something my father always used to say, changing it to fit the appropriate situation.

I might almost like that explanation, but that sounds really boring.

Back when I never really asked questions I just believed heaven was a nice place where everybody was happy. Now I realize, that everybody is way too different to be perfectly happy in the same place. There are people that are happier by themselves, and people that are happy to be surrounded by others.

Basically, I feel like free-will, and universal nirvana are mutually exclusive.

Ya but most people who follow conventional religions do not practice spirituality at the least. IMO

see now here is the thing. None of us knows exactly what Heaven is or even if in fact its the same for each individual. To know its a better place is to have faith.

To know that definitely has to be better than this existence is your answer. Its probably the best answer and at the same time a speculative one.

We have free will already. The ability to choose right or wrong when knowing the outcome is in essence free will.

The question to ask is, is it possible to reach universal nirvana? Oh and if you reach Universal Nirvana then you would not have to make choices.

Everything would be as it should and choices would not need to be made. Hence no reason for the existence of free will because you have erased the need for choices. Everything is Nirvana i.e. pure bliss.

Of course that is probably to simple as is the possible concept of Universal Nirvana. Would a soul want to exist for eternity in a always blissful state? Would that not be boring as you said earlier?
