Human beings have virtually no value if they are just machines

For those arguing that an eternal life will be eternally blissful, I don't think you understand just how long eternity is or some very basic elements of human nature. Let's tackle the human nature part first. We get bored with shit. Doesn't matter what it is, doesn't matter how much we love it, we get bored with it. A favorite food, favorite experience, favorite what the fuck ever. We get bored of it. One of the things that keeps us going is new experiences. Then there's eternity. That's for-fucking-ever. It's so much time you can't possibly imagine it, though you probably think you can. So, you've got people who get bored of everything and an eternity to spend. That leads to this.

Besides, I've met people who long for everlasting life who can't figure what to do with themselves over a long weekend.

There are very few people, like yourself who have actually tried to grasp the consequences of eternal life, and I would have to agree with you 100%.

The way that life is now, it cannot endure eternal life. It would be torture after some time, and after some more time, it would kill you.

But, there's always a but, some of the details are missing, and when they are understood, it is so mind blowing that it cannot be expressed in words.

One thing is for certain, it takes tremendous change and power to be able to live in heaven. But if kids can handle it, become like a kid.
Jesus said unless you become as a child in attitude towards life and everyday, you cannot enter heaven.

You know how much children hate going to bed, or leaving a holiday resort. They could play forever. And that's how adults will learn to live in heaven, by a day to day adventure.
You've lived for many years, and yet you never want to die. That's how you tackle eternal life - one day at a time. And there is plenty of interest - it never ends.
