Are you Rapture Ready?

I figured that out after my rushed post. lolNope. The Doldrums are what you just described. The doldrums that you mentioned earlier wasn't capitalised and doldrums uncapitalised simply means a state of inactivity which is pretty much what I view your heaven to be; a boring place with not much fun and little activity except for morons sitting around playing minigolf, singing in choirs, and basketweaving.
Besides, I was joking.
Well, here's one persepective. I think it's hilariousbecause it seems to describe one really boring place. No food, no water, no gravity (that would really disappoint basketball players among others) etc.
What Will Heaven be Like?
Where in heavens name did you get that description of heaven???
Heaven is completely built, the things that will keep us busy is creating new gardens.
The garden in Genesis would seem to be a not too bad of a place, after Judgment Day the Earth is still in ruins from that final battle. When the gates of New Jerusalem open it is a barren world. We get to rebuild it (via verbal commands rather than each one being given a plow). After that we can take on bigger projects that include multiple worlds.
Ge:2:5:
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth,
and every herb of the field before it grew:
for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth,
and there was not a man to till the ground.
Heb:1:2:
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,
whom he hath appointed heir of all things,
by whom also he made the worlds;
First God is a tyrant because He is too involved with mankind, then He is negligent because He leaves us alone for awhile. Now you have His home as being a boring place and I'm sure you will find some fault in us being gardeners for eternity, no matter how much laughter there is.
You should also be aware that the ones who put up the most resistance to God also turn out to be the most faithful.
PS Basketball would become a 3D sport rather that the 2 dimensions it is today.

Let's see. Heaven is sexless and hell is full of sex and debauchery. Which would you choose?
Only the ones who live inside New Jerusalem remain childless in the New Earth, the ones who live outside the city walls marry and have children and their flocks (pets) have newborns.
Cliffy as soon as you desire sex with somebody in the lake you get raped, by many.

I understand your confusion, you would have to be crazy to turn down an opportunity that comes around once in an eternity.
lmao I think I typed "description" and "heaven" into google. It's funny, isn't it?
Great. So much for keeping construction workers interested.
OK. So we'd be lolling about making gardens besides basketweaving, playing minigolf, and singing in choirs.
So we wander about gardens ooooing and aaaahhing for eternity? I'll pass.
Like I said, boring.
Hey! You're scaring me. I think we've made a bit of a mess with this planet with the help from religions and politics.
So why would the ground NEED tilling if "man" wasn't around anyway? Weeds grow fine without help.
You bet. Variety is the spice of life. Even gardeners take a break to do other stuff. Trust me oin that; gardening is one of my hobbies.
Really? Have you any stats about this?
I think you are missing a dimension or two.

Nice try, that isn't an option or you would already be doing it. You may think the place sucks but your parents and your kids would like to see you there
The way God wipes tears away is to bring forward what is missing that causes those tears. Whether or not you believe it, if you were there and the same ones you mentioned were not there you would be in tears. Tears are a product of this world, not the next one.
Sloth
Main article: Sloth (deadly sin)
Gradually, the focus came to be on the consequences of acedia, rather than the cause, and so, by the 17th century, the exact deadly sin referred to was believed to be the failure to utilize one's talents and gifts.[citation needed] In practice, it came to be closer to sloth (Latin, Socordia) than acedia. Even in Dante's time there were signs of this change; in his Purgatorio he had portrayed the penance for acedia as running continuously at top speed.
The modern view goes further, regarding laziness and indifference as the sin at the heart of the matter. Since this contrasts with a more willful failure to, for example, love God and his works, sloth is often seen as being considerably less serious than the other sins, more a sin of omission than of commission.
Sinning in heaven?. tsk tsk
So this god will bring back Parker to get rid of Aubrey's tears?

No food, no sex, no emotional ups and downs, no gravity, etc. Only gardening? Yeah, so much to look forward to ...
