Okay, for these questions pretend I believe in God, Satan, and the afterlife.

The Bible says man was created in the image of God, correct? Well...

With our superior intelligence, our actions make us the most evil creatures on the planet. Why would God make the most evil creatures on Earth in his image? Is God evil? Wouldn’t it make more sense to create us in Satan’s image?

And one more thing... can you honestly say it would be fun to have eternal life in Heaven? Just think about it for a second, what keeps Heaven from being boring? Picture this: The Almighty Creator of all the Universe, the Designer and Organizer of everything from the smallest subatomic particle to the most majestic of galaxies, the Giver of Life itself, the One who knows the heart and mind of every creature, the One Who can create from absolute nothing or annihilate at will, looks around Heaven and says with dismay, “Great! And I thought they would be happy—but just look at them! They’re all bored stiff! Now what do I do???” It’s hard to fathom, after only a moment’s reflection, that the Almighty Living God has an eternity of boredom awaiting us. Wherever Heaven is and whatever He has planned for us can only be the ultimate in growth, development, understanding, excitement, and fulfillment—Life as it was always meant to be. Spending timelessness as a willing servant of the Most High can be nothing less.

I don’t know about you, but to me endless life in a place without problems to deal with and all these boring religious people or the lack of ability to sin would be worse than Hell, you would be doomed to eternal boredom.

Can someone explain to me what will keep you from getting so bored in Heaven?

The truth is, we may never know why we exsist. We may never know if God had the same problem. We may also never know if you are God himself and we are simpley figures of your imagination and creations of your divine power.

(I’ll be back to finish this.)

I am not Christian or religious, but this topic is extremely offensive to those who are. The central idea and main responses are fine, but the pictures are beyond the limit.

I’m not Christian (technically), but the way I look at it God originally made us to be in his image, but we broke away from that image when Adam and Eve sinned, and we’ve just been going farther away from it.
As for heaven being “boring”, I’m sure that, being omnipotent, that God has created plenty of things to do up there.
Or, it could be just like our imagination, as if we’re in an eternal dream but it feeling real.
Either way, in my eyes, there is probably little reason to be bored, through one explination or another.

Okay then...



Yes, God created man in his own image, we’re his ultimate creation.



In the beginning man was without sin, he didn’t know the meaning of the word and was in perfect harmony with God, as pure of heart as a newborn child. However, as everybody knows, God casted Lucifer down from heaven. In the Garden of Eden he took the form of a serpent and used his cunning to manipulate Eve into taking a fruit from the tree of life and eating it, which God forbade Adam and Eve from doing. Thus the first sin was done, she then took the fruit to Adam and he ate of it as well.

So in the beginning we were the purest things on the planet, it wasn’t until even took the fruit that we fell from where we were.



Heaven will truly be a glorious place, not boring at all really. You think that a place so snazzy that it has streets of Gold and Pearl Gates is going to be boring? I doubt it. Now it’s been a while since I’ve read any of my bible, but if memory serves, it’s said that there will be a feast in heaven that will go for a thousand years, followed by the worship of the almighty.

The bible also speaks of a Mansion for every person in heaven. Also God is omnipotent, as you yourself said, he can do anything. If one was to become bored in Heaven, then you could surely ask God for practically anything. My father even believes that God might even allow you to relive your life exactly how you would have wanted it. (although I doubt anyone would want to go back to living on Earth)

Now, even if Heaven was boring... I doubt anybody would want to live for the rest of eternity in the lake of fire. You would feel more pain then you could imagine, and there would be no getting used to it. You would wish for death and it would not come, it’s be worse then having to spend an eternity with RTIYS2, PS3 Fan, and Yusif all at once.

according to the bible, initially humans were sinless.

we know nothing of heaven, and for whatever reason, i trust the almighty creator not to screw up. also, he could easily change it.
