Buliwyf: Lol. It is funny how heaven is built with materials from the earth. All I am seeing there are precious stones like jasper, gold and diamonds and precious minerals. Seems like the guys who thought up this idea were only coveting riches they couldn't have on earth and made up stories to make themselves feel better.
Why would a spirit god need a chair and castle and be constrained to 3 spatial dimensions like humans are?
Unfortunately the heaven may not be any better than the earth considering the stories we have heard. If the devil who is an angel could get bored and try to usurp the throne, what hope do you humans have. After a million years of singing hallelujah all day long and having nothing better to do with your time, some of you will lead another coup.
Also considering the fact that the Christian heaven admits all manner of unscrupulous fellows and knaves as long as they call on the Christian god at the dying minute but rejects good people because of one little indiscretion at the last minute or because they failed to ask for forgiveness about one simple past mistake, it is safe to say that the quality of people that will be in that heaven will be some of the worst.
How many coups have been going on in heaven since the last time Lucifer tried his? We know that the devil was capable of doing bad and so were some other angels. And also later some other angels decided to come to the earth and taste some fine female asses, produced giants but then were not allowed back into heaven. So how many angels have been leaving heaven to hump women since then?
The inefficiency of the Christian model is that it has a god supposedly able to create good and perfect things but ended up creating the devil, lots of flawed angels and two flawed humans. Not only that, he decided to put the tree that he doesn't want the humans to eat within reach even though being omniscient he knew they would eat it. After the humans "mistake", their god could have reboot the system and make perfect beings or fix the humans. Instead he decided to come to earth and sacrifice himself to himself while impregnating an unsuspecting virgin. Still the sacrifice hasn't worked. The earth is still evil. Many people are still going to hell in the billions. And even the rules for going to heaven is extremely hazy and is interpreted differently by different denominations. So what's the point of that sacrifice?
The Christian gospel is what happens when a bunch of oppressed illiterates and despondents start a movement to save themselves and made up stories to give themselves hope in the light of Roman occupation of their territories. But things got out of hand and imaginations ran wild. Guy, those precious metals are not like anything the earth ever had, like have you ever seen transparent pure gold? Nah, I don't think so. Your dad was moral enough to be faithful to his marriage and keep a family you and your siblings, right? But you don't have scruples with angels jumping down and humping indiscriminately, right? Waoo bro, thank God your dad didn't exist in that generation, else who knows? Be careful what you say bro, angels have free choices like you and I, God would never coerce anyone. Those angels could have asked God to be born into the world if they wanted the experience instead of stealing their way in and messing up the system! Your father was moral and you don't want a moral God?? Waooo again!! Lest I forget, God was the first to sit on a throne and heaven has mansions, yes.. don't think that you will get out of shape when you make it to heaven,.. You can't make it though, no one can. Except YOU ARE SAVED by none other than the GOD WHO SACRIFICED HIMSELF TO HIMSELF as you rightly pointed out!!! Ciao... |
