Omniscience: A thought experiment

The problem then becomes, which me is getting judged? I've done everything that is possible, good or bad. And which me goes to heaven or hell? I'm going to be totally different depending on what happens to me.

Does each "me" get judged separately and sent to alternate versions of heaven or hell?

I'm sure the bible covers this somewhere, I'll have a closer look Tongue

Whoops, God is now torturing an infinite number of me for an infinite time. He just got more evil to the power of infinity.


Omniscience may be an absurd concept, but it doesn't necessarily deserve to be associated with even more infantile concepts like Christian god, heaven and hell.
