    Why are some people old in heaven? I’d want to have a 23yo body forever, thank you very much.

    And why are some people children in heaven? Does this mean they’ll never develop and get to know what it is like to be mature?

    It’s almost like this whole Heaven concept hasn’t been thought out very far.

      I think when first contact happens between loved ones, a common reality is unconsciously agreed upon where the family comes together under the bodies they inhabited at the time they were all together.

      Since the long deceased ones have likely watched the life of the newly deceased with interest, I think that initial reality is then slowly pushed away and the (grown) children take on their more mature forms and the grand parents take on their younger forms, and they all walk away from the meeting as equals

      That’s how I’d do it
