To my final resting, which is a far better outcome than eternal sevitude and constant ass kissing.

I don't know that it sounds great, but it certainly doesn't sound bad. The idea of a supreme being enslaving me for an eternity sounds every bit as bad as hell.
In fact, the concept of hell being merely an asbence from this overbearing, egotistical, slave driver who's idea of bliss is having everyone and everything kiss his ass every second of the day, doesn't sound nearly as bad.
Both places, however, are the product of human imagination and invention. There's absolutely zero evidence of either place. None.
But from your response, I can see that you don't base your view on evidence, but rather what makes you feel good.
I'm just still a little surprised that the heaven being proposed makes people feel good. Perhaps some of you hard core Christians should conduct an experiment:
Pretend one of the congregants is god, and then a few of you should make up a room that has his name and praises of him plastered everywhere in that room. Then have one of your fellow congregants lock the few of you, and your god, in that room for just 2 days. During that 2 days, the few of you are to sing and praise this god all day and all night, non stop.
If, after you are all released from this room, you find yourself wanting back in, then I'd say you are onto something with this hope of yours.
If, however, you find yourselfs, and this god, all terribly sick and tired of the entire experiment, you might want to reconsider your position.
Just saying.
