How does heaven hold every single living creature ever?

We struggle with 7 billion as of now, so what about the billions upon possible trillions and something-illions throughout time in history? (I'm drunk. Too lazy to find out the next stage)

I'm not a lover of anacondas but me being pictured with one as well as a deer with each having bottles of Corona is highly unlikely.

But if that's how it works, then that's crazy.

Obviously the anaconda is taking the selfie as me and the deer have short arms. The anaconda naturally wanted to squeeze us all in together.

BUT. seriously though. Are there many versions of heaven?

heaven is not constrained by the same physical conditions as the material realm.

think of it like the Flatlander problem. a 2 dimensional being can't comprehend an object like a sphere. higher spiritual dimensions are like this to us lower dimensional creatures; incomprehensible.

Well, it clearly does. The only alternative to that would be if it was made up or something, and there's no way that a Cloud Holodeck with everyone who ever lived materializing every thing and every situation they want on a whim could be made up.

What do you think? That the reward of being a Good Person was an incentive created to control the masses? That a punishment of eternal fiery damnation for being a Bad Person was an incentive to control the masses? Like, wow! How could anyone ever believe THAT?

God is what you become when you go to heaven. All of them (not me). There is only one God because you are perfect. Is there really a point is calling yourself two people (or trillions) if both/all of you are absolutely perfect?

The being beyond God is what you join with when you go to heaven. Call it Super God or whatever. You go to heaven and you join with SuperGod that ascension is what makes what we call "God."

Oh and if you are wondering how God can have a God. Think of the God we know like an infinite line.... infinite in both directions... so it truly is infinite... SuperGod would be like the infinite universe the line is in.

Hell or heaven..something's holding onto them.

Heaven is my older bro right now as he died years ago, but the N64 controller was pure hell..so it rules out he's enjoying Goldeneye. And we both enjoyed that game.

Lots of unanswered questions.

Ask any religious person and they have a convincing answer for you: “Because... shut up”
Ask a person what came before the universe and they will probably say "nothing". Before the universe there was nothing... In the bible it's called darkness.

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."


Ask someone what came before "nothing" and they can't. Our brains don't work that way. "what do you mean before nothing that doesn't make sense?" .

The light is the God you become when you go to heaven. The void is the God beyond God. It doesn't come from anywhere it just is.

Because some dumb ancient asshole made it all up, OP.

I actually believe that, but it's like that kind of thing that makes you want to believe.

I want to be proven wrong, but in order to do that people must die. Death must mean something.

If it's a case where we just die and it's like all of life before us and after and it's blank then it's a scary thought..but it wasn't scary before I was born in 1986. So when I die if it's like before I'm born I couldn't care.

And I still am!

I just wondered if the anaconda was taking a selfie with me and a deer he/she had killed. That's how I imagine heaven. All 3 of us arguing if the pic should go on social media.

If it's that then bring it on, because it would be hilarious.

They do rotation of people to give some space. One week only people with a name starting with a vowel can stay there, another week is the consonants dudes.

This is why we have ghosts.

So the tortured souls of the world aren't actually tortured.

There's just a ghost called Frank out there wishing his parents called him Aaron?

Mods, you may as well close this thread because Belmonte has worked things out. We're both consonants so if you ban us both, please remember his avatar just looks nasty but mine looks like a cheeky cat knocking over a PS4.

Maybe heaven is just a creature that devours souls and people have been tricked into going through those pearly gates, which is actually its mouth, and wind up being eaten. So, it doesn't matter so much what heaven's capacity is if you're just going to be gobbled up and pooped out the other end.

What if heaven is the universe? Wouldn't it fit every creature that has ever been alive? And what if we are just consciousness that require no physical space? What if consciousnesses has it's own dimension? And what if nothing else exists after this life?

I think you've confused heaven with PS Now.

Things in Heaven are in idea form. Living ideas need no space.
The idea of a lion will not eat the idea of a lamb.

I don't know if there will be a new physical creation for the ideas in Heaven but if there is, maybe the world then will be bigger and vastly different because of not having rebellion anymore.

You just forgot what it was before you were born. Just like you forgot most, if not all, of the dreams you saw last night.

Maybe most of them are in hell.

That's true (the "most" part of humankind, anyway).

But I would be careful with applying our logic that's been learned through millions of years of evolution to supernatural concepts like Hell, Heaven, or God.

Extra-universal concepts do not have to necessarily use our logic.

Not a biblical scholar or a theologian, but God is spiritual in nature so I can only assume that the realm in which He resides in is spiritual in nature. I believe the Kingdom of Heaven is spiritual, and God's spirit knows no boundaries, I believe we all are a part of God. We have His spark of life, His spirit within us is essentially what I believe

I always wonder what the plan is, what His will is. I think I have an idea

Just try to imagine such a place. Like imagine the most beautiful scenario on Earth for a second, maybe like a breathtaking pier and beach at night where everybody is partying and having fun and being harmonious one with each other, all needs are met there is endless gourmet food and drink and everything is lovely, just a picture perfect moment in time where you can live freely and be with your kin and all others and experience bliss and oneness and simply have the time of your life. I would imagine heaven to be like that, but on an unfathomably, exponentially greater level. A place for everyone and everything to truly live

It's a gorgeous sight to imagine through your mind, to think of such a place. Hope this post does not cause any hate I was only dwelling on what might/could be

If God were real, he'd have created heaven in a one to one replica of One Piece during the Mysterious Jabberwocky arc.
