Rockessence,
If heaven only comes for us all "together", then why should we continue to breed. According to this would we all not reach heaven quicker if we all simply died off.
Would it not generate more "heart-sick"ness knowing that we are stopping those that we loved, in this physical realm, from reaching heaven.
Please do not take any offense. I am simply posting the first ideas that came to mind. I am playing devils advocate, if you will.
I think that your feelings on this matter will give me another angle on which to view the vastness that is the mind of "God".

Well Jake, I am delighted to get into this further with you, if only because you posted your response at the magical (to me) hour of 10:52....but that is another story...
I have the sense of God-as-matrix, meaning that it is God Itself that is the energy that we exist in. The intention has always been that we are to exist in "Heaven"....I spoke of that in the first post.
What is most important to realize is that each of us is built the same way. Each of us is the human extention, or human be-ness of an Individualized portion of God-the Matrix.... That is your God-self. All of us are built that way. The intention is that we recognize this fact, and from then on, activate our ability to express this magnificent, all-powerful, perfect portion of God in all that we say, think, do.
You are already activating It every time you are creative, loving, kind, inspired, generous, constructive, etc.... See, not so hard to act as God!
However, whenever you are distructive, hateful, cruel, mean, stingy, etc, you are wholely human, cut off from your Divine self...just flappin out there on your own! Isn't it funny that to say someone is "humane" we mean Divine? But "only human" means f****d up!
But being creative, loving, kind, inspired, generous, constructive, etc is just the beginning. We are meant to use those attributes to "speak as God" and command the Cosmos and thus create Heaven on Earth.
About continuing or not to breed.... Reaching Heaven happens in the mind first, and it as easily shared by 10 people as by 10 million .... Every human born has the capacity to create it.
You said "Would it not generate more "heart-sick"ness knowing that we are stopping those that we loved, in this physical realm, from reaching heaven."
Do you mean that if someone who knew the score were to act badly, which "set us all back" as it were, would they be "heart-sick" about it?
You bet....but chances are if they "knew the score" they would likely step up and act Divine at most oppotunities.
Hell it's 5 am and I'm raving....
