I just wanted to clarify something that cropped up in the Bible. If there is a God and a potential Heaven for dead humans can we be sure that God wants us there?
First, when there was a risk of Man becoming immortal, God banished him from the garden of Eden.
Second, when there was a chance that humans might ascend into Heaven and become omnipotent by building a tower, God demolished that idea by introducing language.
So, what makes the Christian(or maybe even anyone of Abrahamic faith) sure that God is happily waiting for human souls to join him in Heaven? Even the Bible seems to present a couple instances where he fears man will rise above his place and make himself a god.
BTW, this is is first post on any forum so please forgive any mistakes I might initially make.
