Okay! Another question.

If all that remains is a spirit and our bodies are returned to the dust from whence they came (or in Eve's case back into a rib) how shall we recognize our departed loved ones without having seen their spirit? Is it round, or square, or tiny and bigger than a breadbox?

Gramps, go pay your tithes and quit making trouble!
 
Yeah! I figured there was an admission fee to heaven. I ain't got much money so I guess when it's my time to go I will walk in backwards to make the ticket taker think I am going out.

Boy, you got God scratching his head on that one.

Question for you: Why do you ask such esoteric questions about an entity you say is totally make believe? That is like asking how many homes can the tooth fairy visit in one 24 hour period.

I know about tooth fairies. I was one for years. The answer to your question is in the question: I have an esoteric curiosity. Curiosity killed the cat which was not a problem unless it was a ninth time. Actually I do lots of this because its fun to do. At age 86 life can be boring. I read the morning news, work the crossword puzzles and that's about it. PJ's is a source for keeping one's sanity rather than visit all of my friends at the cemetary. In the summertime I keep busy doing yard work, flower weeding, repair and maintence around the house and that sort of thing but when there is a couple feet of snow outside (which there is right now) I hunker down and get ready to start to begin to commence doing nothing much.

Spirits are required to carry PhotoId so that there is no Spirit Fraud

Gramps I never would have guessed you were 86. God bless you fella.

I think our spirits look like us. Although some of us will have new better bodies on the last day.

Even if our spirits don't look like us, our connections will still be felt. When someone dies, they don't forget you.
 
Apparently, our spirits already know or knew each other in the spirit world/afterlife. Such a mystery, that death.

That's why I'm convinced that this life we have now is merely our 'testing ground' to see if we deserve a better spiritual life (ie Heaven).

I know why some lefties ask questions like that one. So that they can then ridicule and mock the answers they get and the people that give them.

What? No seed-starting activities for spring? No planning for next spring's garden? I've got tons of things to do in the winter to get ready for springtime. And once those little suckers start peeking out of the soil, then they have to be spritzed every day and then fertilized! It's a never-ending cycle.

Even the apostles didn't recognize Jesus when he appeared to them after the ressurrection. That is because they were still in human form and therefore, their spirit and conscious mind did not recognize Jesus's spirit at first.

They can appear how they like, similar to the angles which the born again will have more ability

Ah so then human spirits aren't born, they already exist... and what makes them magically attach to human animals? When are they not attached?
 
I liked your honest answer, gramps. I come off mean spirited, but I always intend it only as a challenge. It is only those "who protesteth too much" that make me think I hit the mark. I mean, honestly. Do you think I would get upset because someone said I was a fool for wasting my time on a fantasy, or if they said I am a bully for shoving my religion down their throats? Insults are fun, to me.
So back to you for a moment: It is very difficult for me to comprehend an honest intelligent man unable to see the divine in the myriad of manifestations in history and in life itself. Humans could have evolved from some amoeba by chance, without a God? Really?

I mean really?
 
In the earlier days of the Abrahamic religions, it was believed that the Luz Bone survived as the seed for one's eventual resurrection. Some still believe this legend to be true.
