Time
Since there might be no time in heaven, that would make boredom impossible.

Re: Time
Isn't that ignorance?
Pretty limited view of another demension. I really expected more from you. I know you dream about things like that.

Re: Time
Sorry bro, I got confused with another thread were I mentioned that heaven could be in the 4th demension, where there is no time.

Re: Time
I thought time was the glue that holds the 3 demensions together. Without time you would be able to see from the begining to the end. You could see all sides of a 3 demensional object.
The bible says that for God, one day is like a thousand years, an indication that he exists in an arena without time.
I believe our minds exist in a place where there is no time. That is why we have visions of the past, and visions of the future.

Re: Time
Distance and time are the same thing, that was my understanding. That is based on the speed of light, which may or may not be the speed limit of the universe.
It is also relative to you. Going into another demension where time does not exist, does not mean that events will stop happening. We may be able to see all events at the same time. It would be like looking out of a box, and then seeing the other side.

Re: Time
I guess I am not clear on that. Would it be the 5th demension, or the fourth.
I am not an expert on the definitions of demensions. I once read that the 4th demension had no time, so I assumed, my fault. I also read there could be no limit to the demensions, just that we can not comprehend it.
This is all theoretical anyway.
