    people are essentially high 24/7 so nothing bothers them.

    The biblical description of what you experience in heaven is exactly why I think heaven would be awful if it existed. Because it sounds basically just like that and with an absence of free will.

      The absence of free will part is that you have to stay on the path of following your conscience to stay in heaven.

      This literalist crap is the way a five year old understands religion.

        What Christian denominations count everything in Revelations, which is where this description comes from, as anything but literal? That is the one specific book in the Bible that is not usually considered metaphorical by religious institutions.
