A Muse About Heaven

I watched a program where a scientist had a small bit of information travel faster than light. A wee bit of music imprinted on an electron. I don’t recall the tune; it arrived before it left, real time travel. This achievement leads to the real possibility of other dimensions, more than our standard length, width and depth all glued together by time. It means time can be part of other unknown dimensions, planes or places. The electron had to be somewhere during the mega mini second it was gone; we know it’s the same electron because the music was there.

Maybe it went to heaven, a spirit world, a place that we cannot see, feel, hear or smell. A place out of our know existence. Perhaps it’s the place where God hangs out, heaven. This brings another interesting possibility to light; heaven could be an exceedingly large place, just as proclaimed in the Bible and other main line doctrines. Also we now have a pretty real idea of the size and shape of our universe, the one made up of our three known dimensions. This concept allows for our entire three dimensional plane of existence, the universe, to be able to fit into heavens space, whatever kind of space it has.

This is a rather staggering idea to consider. The immensity of this thought is denoted by this statistic; if all the suns in our universe where the size of a grain of sand on a beach there would be enough sand to fill all the beaches on earth. So we have a rather large number of suns with an equally large amount of planets that could have had, do now, and probably will support intelligent life; like Huts, Wookies, Vulcans, Klingons and Orindians, and billions of other ‘space’ creatures all with some type of spiritual life that can be separate from their physical bodies. Same as most of us believe in our having a ‘soul.’ (I had a near death out of body experience on the operating table when I was 17; it was a very convincing incident. Blogged as ‘Evidence for Heaven’ March ’09).

I now have an interesting collection of facts and ideas to rope together. We will start with the bible and other holy scripts saying there is ample room for all in Heaven. Second, this is proved true because of the time experiment indicating an unknown ‘plane’ or dimension that can easily absorb our entire universe. Third, it is ultra narcissistic to think we are the only creatures with souls in our space time continuum. Fourth, this means we will meet unknown intelligent life in heaven due to God’s love and desire to have many saints in His Heaven. Finally, it is most likely that Jesus suffered a cruel death billions of times on different planets to save all the souls available.

Personally I find the experience of meeting other ‘weird’ life forms in Heaven to be one of the most exciting features to look forward to concerning going to Heaven; other then meeting God Himself that is.
