It seems to me that the goal of leading a "Christian" life, is that you get to go to Heaven. But the details of what goes on there are pretty sketchy in the Bible. Life everlasting with no body, no mission, no failure? What do these spirits do to amuse themselves?

Unexplainable joy, lasting forever?

Sounds GREAT to me. :-)

If you wanna look at it plain and simple,
no one can truly comprehend or truly
know what occours in the after existence.

Xeno, you say, "If you wanna look at it plain and simple,

know what occours in the after existence.

Well of course nobody knows anything about non existence, because it does not exist. I am pointing out, poorly no doubt, that "after existence" is an oxymoron. You can put those two words together sure, but they anilate eachother.

But wait Xeno! "After existence?" I thought there was an existence after?

Simply put, I figure there can be no after existence, because OUR existence is dependent on WORDS. And words are dependent on substance. Plainly speaking, metaphorically speaking, you need a hard drive for words, and our bodies have one!

Carla, Sounds like tripping on "X" to me. Nice perhaps but nothing to do with LIFE!! Those words hold some poetic or metaphor for you. They mean something, but think about it really, you are presenting a FEELING as the answer to what is heaven like.

Sorry about the multiple posts above, I kept getting dropped in the middle of sending my posts.
