And does that mean everyone is the same age in heaven

i know, you should at least be able to choose what form you want to take from moment-to-moment, avatar-like.

Fred at Slacktivist has written about this kinda thing before, about the fucked-up dogmatic ideology subgenre that holds that all fertilized eggs are ensouled at the moment of conception. I mean, how fucked up would it be to encounter something whilst wandering about Heaven you never knew, much less never had any brain tissue on this plain of existence.

I remember there was a movie in like the eraly 90s where billy crystal dies and goes to heaven. he hangs out around a salad bar and talks with a black woman before he goes back to earth? I think I saw this when I was like, 6 or 7.

when harry ate salad

estela, Saturday, 12 March 2011 09:58 (thirteen years ago) link

okay, looking at billy crystal's filmography it probably wasn't billy crystal.

but I swear that there is some movie, where somebody dies and goes to heaven and eats salad.

And does that mean everyone is the same age in heaven

It was sometimes part of Christian mythology (medieval period maybe?) that everyone was 33 in heaven, as that was the age of Jesus at his death. I suppose the thinking was that, in order for the sacrifice to be greatest, Jesus had to die at the peak of his life. But I imagine 21st century '33' is nicer than 10th century, or 1st century.

seems to be from the right time period, right plot - probably is! will have to watch to see if it involves salad, if there's conclusive proof that there's salad in heaven. xp

dayo i think your confusion is attributable to the heavenly salad bar's sneeze guard being made out of crystal

it's funny that every archetype of how Jesus looks has him resembling a roadie for Allman Brothers

Why are there never any OBE memoirs about people who go to Hell and come back?

There are plenty of books on trips to hell.

This is a famous one: http://www.amazon.com/23-Minutes-Hell-Bill-Wiese/dp/1591858828/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1299939286&sr=8-1.

The guy built a whole career out of it, going around the country lecturing about it: http://www.soulchoiceministries.org/

for some reason i thought that Amazon link would go to Dante's Inferno (though I don't know if the guy in that book ever came back??)

The book from Rawlings (mentioned upthread) is interesting too: http://www.amazon.com/Hell-Back-After-Startling-Evidence/dp/0785275347/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1299941305&sr=8-1

The claim to authority is that Rawlings was not a religious person himself, giving the impression of scientific objectivity. But no ground is as shaky as NDE. It is my experience that no Christian likes to talk about Muslims who met Mohammad on their trip to heaven and back.
