Unexpected TIL from reading https://unsongbook.com/ :

Less a death, more an upgrade to eternal life in heaven!

Ooh this is a chance for me to give my other blasphemous opinion (some credit to Eliezer): Christian heaven is actually not that fun, and I think most people would consider it worse than life on Earth.

Here's a GPT summary of what heaven is like. Do you really want to pray to god and sing songs for hours every day?

Christian heaven is described in hyperbole. 

Our judgement of whether it is desirable comes from our life experience and expectations of reality. Humans have trouble experiencing life without pain to define pleasure. 

"There can be no good, without evil" this concept applies across ideals and perceptions....

... within our "reality." But if you leave this reality and elevate to a higher form of existence, would your desires and definitions still remain the same without the physical traits that define them?

Knowing there is more than just this, adds depth to our existence. While I do not follow Christian outlines, I do follow science. And even the soul is now a measurable form of energy. I think existence beyond here is something we can calculate as probable. Why do we have a conscience built in if there is no point?

This points to the naivety of much of the Christian ideas, the childish/selfish and arrogant belief that there is anything after this and that we’d be of a similar form of mind about all of it in the actual case there was.
