If your purpose for this life is to get to heaven, then what will be your purpose in heaven? To persist? You can persist in hell. What purpose does persisting have?
That has nothing to do with my purpose in this life.
My purpose in this life is to get the most out of it that I possibly can. Heaven on earth, as stated in the lords prayer.

That's not my belief, and your jetteson of it seems reasonable.
