my heart beats so that i can hardly speak

The bit the other day about forensics got me thinking about heaven and the common interpretations. The categorical representation usually includes halos, white robes, and big, fluffy clouds.

But what if heaven looks more like, I dunno, a chill bar scene? Or a classroom? Or a forensics match? Maybe heaven is different for each person.

I think those images would be great to explore. Literally ask people their idea of heaven and make it for them (not heaven, of course....just the picture).

Heaven

Rough transcript of a conversation that happened earlier today, that Ann so nicely requested I post online so it's 'published.'

Mallory: I wish all of our conversations were transcribed so that then we could read them later and use them for forensics pieces.
Alyssa: Well, we'll get to read them all in the book of life.
M: And there's forensics in heaven?
A: Of course. It's heaven.
M: Although, I wouldn't want to go up against Gabriel, the messenger of God.
A: Right. "Oh no! Gabriel's in my next round! And Jesus is judging!!"

[time elapses]

A: Although, Paul's in my round after that, and we know he's not all that hot.
M: Right! I mean, his letters are so big they hardly fit in his book! And Peter's always speaking in tongues.
A: And that only works in program.
