....in the case of heaven I don't see it as much different than nirvana(or whatever the buddists call it)...the removal of all earthly desires, complete relaxation, etc.
If that means feeling happy for all eternity it's pretty much irrelevant what it looks like on paper....my only problem with heaven and hell is that I can't picture myself in it and the whole balance between pain and joy is what makes us human in the first place. In the case of hell...the only thing that causes that much personal suffering is the hope for something better and that hope both sustains a person and causes them to suffer in the first place, which is not much different than earth.
