EXACTLY like Willy Wonka's Chocolate factory, right down to the Oompa Loompas! only difference is there's more than just candy growing on the trees and there's a better soundtrack

What is your age in heaven?
Which of your ex-spouses will be there with you.
What if the one you want is with somebody else?
Will you be rejoined with your grandmother?
How old will she be?
Will you also be rejoined with your ancestor from 10,000 BC?
That ancestor has 3 trillion descendants, some of whom are in Hell. How does that work?
If you had a leg amputated, is it already there waiting for you?
Who gets to decide if your pets are there with you---you, or God?
If your son goes to Hell, do you get him in Heaven with you on his good days?
What if you had a heart transplant---who gets the heart?
Do you have to play the harp, of if you want an accordion, will they send one up from Hell for you?
Do other people in Heaven have to listen to you play it?
If in Heaven you're the best golfer ever, how can you be sure, if Tiger Woods is not there to play you?
Can you borrow a virgin from a Muslim?
Does he get a full replacement when you return her as damaged goods?
Or doesn't Heaven let you damage the goods?
Then how can it be Heaven?
How can there be a Heaven without baseball, and therefore without Manny Ramirez?

I don't think there is any way for us to know what the afterlife is - if there is one at all. It's fun to speculate, but I have a feeling that it's something that we are incapable of comprehending.
We can pretend in fairy tales that tell us that when we die we go somewhere fantastic, but if that's the case then why don't people start killing themselves to go live in paradise? Oh right, there are apparently rules to get there. But who can say for sure that these rules are correct?
I think that it shows an outstanding amount of ignorance for a person to believe that s/he knows what happens after we die. There are limitless posibilities and there's simply no way to know for sure until we get there.
When I was younger I thought that the afterlife was either being asleep forever or there was some form of reincarnation that takes place when the soul leaves the body. But again, it's impossible to say.

Can the oompa loompas not be as creepy looking as they are in the newest version of the movie? I'm not on board with this if I have to be surrounded by those guys for eternity
Well, there are accounts of numerous NDE's that have been reported around the world that I've read about in the past. The tunnel of light and all that jazz. But there have been stories of people going to some rather, um, negative places. And there are cultural differences as well, with many Asians reporting back from a heaven filled with gleaming skyscrapers and shiny automobiles, while Americans' idea of heaven often resemble that famous meadow scene in "The Sound of Music." Interesting, to say the least.
As for me, I'm partial to the idea of reincarnation - and that we get to choose how and when to come back in future lives. Sure beats playing the harp in a so-called "heaven" anyways...LOL. And I somehow feel that the rewards of this life does manifest in the afterlife somehow - just in ways we can't conceive right now.
As curious as I am about the afterlife (and who isn't), it's something I hope that doesn't get answered for a very long time to come.
