Are you looking for an answer you can believe?

i do kinda like the whole idea that god is forever and there has never been a time when there has not been god, i like this idea because the physical mind cannot accept it and must be given another answer.... whereas the spiritual mind understands it completely

And be thankful that you do not have the terrible burden of understanding everything in the universe.

You're free. You don't have to bear the weight of understanding everything in eternity. That's the business of our heavenly Father.

Originally posted by ZahlanziA bit of a contradiction that. How can being happy be boring? If you are bored, then you aren't happy. If struggle is necessary to relieve boredom and thus induce happiness then there must be struggle in heaven - or people aren't happy there.

However, I don't buy the argument that life on earth is the best possible.
