If heaven does exist, and I'm not going to totally discount the possibility that it does, I don't think it would be anything like the forms we imagine. Like, people seem to think of a place with clouds and flowers and angels with harps. But I'm reasonably sure that that's just an interpretation of the true Heaven made by people who don't understand it. I don't know what a real heaven would look like, and I don't know what the Bible says about it (can somebody help me out there?), but it's not the way we all imagine it.
A couple notes, and keep in mind that these are just my thoughts, are:
- We can't see heaven with a powerful telescope. It's not a physical place.
- We don't have our physical bodies or forms. We wouldn't be able to walk around, or talk, or anything like that.
- As a result of that, we don't have our senses. We can't see, hear, feel, etc.
- There are billions and billions of people there. But it doesn't fill up, because space is a physical idea. And everybody who ever was or ever will be is there, because time is also a physical idea. [while I was typing this, MM said the same thing, we can't both be wrong
; the problem is that you refer to it as "non-corporeal" with "arbitrary size" -- size is a corporeal idea, and wouldn't apply to a non-corporeal place. Imagining non-corporeal things is very difficult. ]
- God isn't a person (neither man nor woman). It has no physical form, and you can't possibly "meet" It, the way we understand the word "meet". Perhaps you enter the same plane of existance that It is in, but it would be nothing like meeting another person.
So we have no light, no space, no time, no senses. That makes me wonder what it DOES have.
Please show me what the Bible says about Heaven, if somebody knows where to look. I'm rather curious how what I figure it would be like compares to what others say.
