"Oh great and divine God in heaven, who giveth us free will that we may obey him or suffer eternally, please grant me eternal life, the incentive with which many people continue to believe in their respective faiths. And please don't smite me because Your Omniscience sees in my mind that one of my main reasons for believing in Thee is because I am threatened with punishment and bribed with rewards. PS: Thanks for making that tree of knowledge thingy. Smart plan. Amen."
>"Well, at least for muslims, they have 72 virgins to keep them occupied."
Firstly....how does one 'ration out' virgins over an infinite span of time (remember, have sex with one, it's not a virgin anymore."
Secondly, an obese, hairy manchild who was loyal to Islam and died a virgin is still a virgin. Ask yourself how many "Chris-Chan's" ended up in Muslim Heaven, assigned to fill the sexual needs of dead suicide bombers.
@TheMetalHead102 If we live in the twilight zone, and the Abrahamic nightmare turns out to be reality (a-hahahaha) then believers will never be bored - they'll be occupied for eternity - worshiping a childish psychopath who defines love as mindless-servitude.
A1: No - in that case I don't want to spend eternity as a zombie.
A2: Yes - in that case the probability of sin is greater than zero. We spend eternity in heaven. Any probability greater than zero multiplied by infinity = infinity. Therefore with free will and in infinite amount of time it is an absolute certainty that EVERYONE will sin and ultimately end up in hell - so what's the point?
@TheMetalHead102 ... hypocritical for some religious people... most of them want eternal life... But are bored out of their mind and have nothing to do in the weekend...
Yeah. And most of them can barely stand an hour of church every week and they want that for eternity !!!???

I wonder if Professor Xavier can use Cerebro to access every religious person's mind and put some logic in there.

You know what seems to me at least very hypocritical for some religious people...
The fact that most of them want eternal life... But are bored out of their mind and have nothing to do in the weekend...

@TheMetalHead102 Excellent observation! Do they have entertainment in Heaven?
I hope it's not like a "Glass Bottom Boat" where the only thing interesting to do is to watch the people below roasting in Hell.
Even that will get boring after a day or two.

Q: Is there free will in heaven?
A1: No - in that case I don't want to spend eternity as a zombie.
