More interesting than heaven.  :)
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

I don't know, I can imagine a pretty hopping Heaven, with a Hell right next door, both enjoying a fairly healthy Inmate Exchange Program, working out for all the inmates, who are looking for a little action.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Hey, I could go for that. It's the monotony that would get to me in heaven.

There would be a number of adventurous souls who would choose to receive our heavenly rewards in the form of peaceful slumber, after driving ourselves to exhaustion from a full day of "surfing Hell". I might even apply for some part time work on the support staff in Hell.

Got a touch of sadism in you, do you?

You ought to confer with Callaway. I believe she's applied to represent the angels.

I thinkt there are lot of people who would disagree that LDS is Traditional Christianity.

True, but it's a large Christian-based orginization. I lumped the 3 together simply to represent larger orginized monotheism.

It was supposed to be an obscure joke about the presence of an eagle scout on a site like Intensity.

Just nod, smile, and call the loony bin on me - that's the usual reaction when I try to be funny.

How can agnosticism and atheism be of the same category? Agnosticism should only be applied to atheism IF they house some uncertainty towards their view. This goes for theism, too. In short, agnosticism can describe both theists and atheists who feel that they haven't got the means to prove their claims that the metaphysical can or can not exist. (Just did some quick research.)

I'm an agnostic theist, btw.

agnosticisim considers the question of god unanswerable.

Agnostic theist is a bit of a contradiction. It sounds more like you're a Dieist

Deists are certain that God does not exert influence on natural phenomenon or give no supernatural revelation. Deism is based on the principles of logic and reason. I, however, have no basis to support my faith in the metaphysical, which is where I differ from a deist.

So your concept of god is one that exists in the natural world ??
