Re: Where's Heaven? (Was, If god exists, what created god?)

In the old days, when the Earth was still flat and 40 days of rain
could cover it with water, Heaven was straight up. You could point to
it. It's written in the Stones.
Then here comes Galileo, Kepler, Copernicus, and their ilk. Now, up is
a matter for argument (90 degrees off the Earth's axis, the galactic
plane of the ecliptic, etc.).
Which way is up?
What's God's address? Where is Heaven? Lots of people go there. How
long is the ride? Is it on a cloud, like in the pictures? Why don't
we send a KH-11 over to get pictures of the Pearly Gates? Or is it
further out?
Also, our loved ones, and God, watch us constantly. Is it in real
time, or is there lag for lightspeed delay?
Where is Hell? I understand that it's below us somewhere. Could we get
some Marines in asbestos suits to clear the place out? Anybody object
to using nukes on the Devil? Personally, I'd approve.
