So what do people actually do? What is there to do?
They do what they always wanted, He gives us the desires of our heart. He alwso helps our heart to be clean, so we won't want evil things. I have heard we could travel instantly anywhere in the universe. We could have breakfast with mom, lunch with Moses, and nightcaps with Adam and Eve, or whatever. We can learn the actual amazing truth about thins we always wondered about. We can fly. We have no more pain or death, or sickness. And it is so much more wonderful that that we could not even imagine with our little brains right now.

The width of the dip in the light curve tells us how long it takes to get across the star. The depth of the dip in the light curve tells us how large the planet is. Combine the two and you can calculate the orbit and the density of the planet.
Thanks. So what we have then is time. The time as seen here that something takes to move in space somewhere. Something that is of unknown size and distance. (unless you prove time exists the same there also we absolutely know no distances).

Something that could be the size of a marble or tennis ball or spaceship has something smaller revolving around it. The revolutions take so much time HERE where time exists as seen and experienced by us HERE. That does not tell us anything about whether time exists THERE.

What 'evil things' could you be referring to?

See, this is just alien to me.

There's no real discovery. There's no risk, there's no reward, there's nothing new. With permanent perfection you literally negate the purpose to living at all.

Do you not know evil from good?

It might help to have a little perfection and super bodies to really enjoy life.

I do, but I don't know how you interpret it.

Not really. It's like cheating in a video game to win. Becomes pointless.

I try and use the guidelines God gave us in Scripture rather than some feeling within.

The original nature and life of man was not like we see today. It is not cheating, therefore, but more natural!

This is just white noise. When there's no challenge, no struggle, nothing to sate curiosity, or discover, or learn. Just bliss. I can't see how anyone would want that world.

I do not.

You do yours, I'll do mine.

I do not call heart's desire white noise. I do not call love and happiness and fulfillment and challenge white noise.

Any more?

(I am genuinely asking; NASA has a tendency to put up computer generated or edited images for display purposes.)


In other words, are there any pictures of our backyard that does not have artifacts of editing, isn't a composite photo, and/or shows an oblate spheriod earth - as opposed to a unit ball of unit radius 1 (earth radius)?
The complete Apollo project original unedited photographs are on Flickr in the Apollo Project Archive. This isn't an official NASA album, but all their stuff is in the public domain, and an enterprising individual has assembled them there.

Didn't I just say I was not suspicious of NASA? It was a simple question:

Where are the higher quality raw photos without edit? It should be easy to provide if I can see it (and take a picture) from my telescope.

There shouldn't be a reason why we can't see raw, unedited photos from NASA - with absolutely no edit. That wild be profitable for people that understand the physics of what is going on - to draw educated conclusions.

Filtered, altered, smoothed, or CGI images raw from the source should be a public access.
They are public access - you just have to browse the NASA archives for them.

It's none of those things. It's permanent boredom.
Boredom...? Nothing new to discover or get excited about or over...? Wrong...

You can have any kind of existence you wish, see here:

There is not one you, or one world or universe, but there are many... Heaven... where we go...?

You can also have an earth existence, where you will have good company, be able to play with all animals peacefully and none and nothing will harm you... You can have beautiful gardens of all kinds, lot's of good things to eat and enjoy... Go for a swim, play games with friends...

Or you can reside in heaven, the city of light, which kind of existence is unimaginable and beyond compare, and is very enjoyable, and very exciting... When people were given just one taste of Heaven it says, they were filled with "ecstasy"... The euphoric feeling was that high and great, beyond what any drug can give you...

And this will be perpetual there...

How can you say that is "boring"...?

God Bless!

I see this description, and it almost comes across as childish.

Certainly intensely materialistic.

Unless you become as small children, you will not see the Kingdom of God...

Childish or materialistic in what way...? In the way of imagination, I would agree, but that's where children have an advantage over most adults...

It's literally being able to do anything, use anything, surrounding yourself with beautiful landscapes. You dress it up so well too.

Childish in that you depict it as sort of frolicking through the fields picking daisies. It really sounds unpleasant to me.

Which undoubtedly exists across the universe. What are the odds that this is the only such planet?

If you believe we all evolved that might be the case. But God created the Earth and the universe. Nothing happens by random chance.

Did you check my link..?

God is capable of giving and actually will give you, your deepest, truest, secret, sincerest, truest, even darkest (but that would be "hell") (and not heaven) "hearts desire", beyond your wildest dreams or imagination, what you may not even know you "really want" yet, but, it's "in there"... "in you", down deep, and he knows what it is, and you'll get it/that in the end...

Right now, you call the ability to commit sin, and committing sin(s), "freedom", that is what Satan thinks, and the way he want's the rest to think also... The fleeting, temporary and ultimately "empty" fleeting pleasures of sin, and sinning, are fleeting, temporary, and ultimately very very empty and will leave you cold, dead, and empty, in the end... Not to mention very "angry" if that's what you get in the afterlife, weeping and gnashing of teeth...

Right now, you think like him, calling "freedom slavery, and slavery freedom"... You've got it backwards, and this is one of Satan's greatest deceptions and tools he uses...

We cannot comprehend, nor imagine heaven or the real true lasting pleasures of and in it... It is way, way beyond "frolicking through a field picking daisies", a term that I've heard some use before... The reality of heaven cannot be beheld or imagined by us who are going to go there...

It is not just bliss, but extreme comfort, peace, and joy, extreme elating joy, beyond compare or your wildest dreams can imagine right now... Their will still be mystery and things to explore and learn, things that are very exciting, and very satisfying, and fulfilling...

Can the fleeting pleasures of sin, offer you that...? I don't think so...

God Bless!

Why do you exclude the possibility that he did the same thing on other planets? You already believe that the whole universe is part of his creation.
