Heaven = earth X perfection. Right. This is thoughtful? Perhaps it is if he claims it as narcissistic claptrap. But not if he is trying to pass it off as real and truthful, or even as realistically hypothetical, for which there is no evidence. Why does no one with credentials in reality-based disciplines talk about this in their professional capacity? Because it has nothing to do with reality.
