    If existence is infinite there is no difference whatsoever between heaven and hell. The idea of “happiness forever” is a 4 year old child’s conception of something desirable, and shows absolutely no awareness of what it means to exist.

    And before someone starts in with the “You’ll be altered so that heaven will be perfect forever”, you’ve destroyed any meaning of it - if you’re going to be made to enjoy it, you could just as easily be made to enjoy hell. The whole concept is stupid.

    Heaven is the desperate hope of the tired who don’t need eternal bliss - they need a break and a chance to actually live.

      You just lack imagination.

      Heaven is two goth girlfriends who alternate between loving you and ignoring you. Occasionally they step on you.

      Won’t find that in any philosophy book because philosophers are prudes.
