Once you get to heaven, what will you do there?
Will you play with puppies and eat cotton candy without gaining weight or getting cavities?
Will you visit with friends and family forever?
Will you sit of the feet of "g"od and do nothing but praise, worship and tell it how great it is?
Or is there something else you'll be doing?

Post #2The first thing I'll do is stop into the Eat 'n Park restaurant. I have always told everyone that heaven won't be heaven unless they have an Eat 'n Park restaurant just like the one here in town. That will reassure me that I'm truly in heaven.connermt wrote: Once you get to heaven, what will you do there?
After I have my first meal in heaven I will then proceed to become a gardener, a caretaker, and a musician in a nice quaint country resort that I will personally design and construct with the help of the many lovely people who will also be in heaven.
This will be my contribution to heaven.

But that may not be the same as Heaven, because it is said:
"The Kingdom of God doesn't come with observation; neither will they say, 'Look, here!' or, 'Look, there!' for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you."

The kingdom of heaven is on earth. For those who have found it, then you may well find them with a garden, and being a caretaker, in a personally constructed home and environment. The kingdom of God, on the other hand, has not occurred at this point, and is called the millennium. It will be much the same as the kingdom of heaven, except the Muslim Messiah, Hussein Soetoro will not be the ruler.

Heaven to me is a state of mind and a way of life based on Kindness and Justice. As Jesus allegedly said, "the kingdom of heaven is within you." It's not a "place" one can "go," but a way one must live.

This is a question that contributed to my becoming an atheist or whatever tag applies.
Do the believers in an afterlife actually ever think about what they could possibly do for eternity.
Eternity is allegedly a very, very, very, very long time. If you actually have a mind under the circumstance would it be possible to remain sane?
Does that thought constitute an explanation for some of the supposed actions of god?
