In one sense you are correct two people can look at the same things and come to different conclusions. That does not mean that both conclusions have equal justification. If you find a term used consistently in various places you can reasonably believe they confer the same symbolic meaning. As it so happens "heaven" generally signifies the Divine Order as it is reflected in the inner human mind and "earth" is typically used to signify the spiritual community that receives it. But I know you, Mr. Rythym, do not care to seriously consider the spiritual significance of the text. You only want to see the surface, then you can justify your self-proclaimed hostility.
