Actually, I'm not looking anywhere, I think to do so is a waste of my time. The point I'm trying to make is that in the not so distant historical past Christians actually believed in the "Celestial Spheres" and a literal Heaven. They slowly changed their tune when it became obvious that that was untrue. I think the real task for us as a civilization is to find a new basis for the moral framework that gave us the political institutions of The Enlightenment. I know it must come as a shock to you that other conservatives don't share your world view, but don't you think that there is enough disparity between Christian cosmology and what we have discerned from empirical observation of the universe to question the relevance of religion in the modern world.

Good luck in THAT rabbit hole.

You want to look at only what's here and now. Fine. Go right ahead. Plenty of others are in your camp.

You may want to consider your soul, however. And to believe that God is some kind of mythical grandfather in the sky is denying what's really going to happen.
