As Mickey says we can only speculate.

But assuming there is a Heaven and a God than I would have to say no. Free thinking/free choice do not lead one to Heaven or God. Therefore, one would have to presume that Heaven would be out for anyone who practices free thinking and free choice.

Now I can just see all the Christians going bonkers over this statement but seriously Christians, think deeply, go mystic, are you really practicing free thinking, free choice or are you just one of the sheeple?

Hence, one of the reasons I practice Zen Deism and follow a Goddess spiritual path. At this point in time I have no desire to see Heaven or God at least as Christians think it.
