I found a "dead end" about heaven.

When you go to heaven, how will you look? Will you look how you did when you died?
What about your age? Say, if your grandmother died when she was 40, and you died when you was 80, then you would be much older than her.

I think we will look like a perfect form of ourselves, all the same age. That makes a lot more sense than a bunch of dead wrinkly beings for the most part.

If your Buddhist it doesn't matter because you'll realize age and time was all a deception when you become one with the universe and all knowledge.

Well, supposedly it's only the souls that go to Heaven, while the physical body remains behind and decomposes back into the earth (made from dust, go back to dust sort of thing), so regardless of when we die or how, our souls could probably look like anything we like now that it's no longer bound by a physical shell.

That's my hypothasis, anyway. I could be right, could be wrong, that's just my take on the subject.

You can probably look like whatever you want yourself to look like. Hell, gender and race probably no longer applies.

Heaven is wet-dream wish fulfillment, so obviously one would look like an idealised version of oneself.

im no expert for im not dead; but personal opinion on the matter, heaven is a concept that allows you to ease into death easier... No gold streets no singing. As a side note, heaven and hell are right here on earth! by whatever route you may wish to take. In the end life is only what you make of it and heaven is your most cherished of places

In the Christian heaven, you get a new body, so maybe you might look the same or even better then your current body.

Man I want to actually fly, and maybe thats one of our powers as having new body. Our bodies would be simular to christ in his glory and honor or something that seems pretty glorious in heaven.

ITs probable you also get a new name written in stone.

Age does not matter in heaven because you live forever in heaven.

What happens to someone who was a miscarriage?

They become cherubs, the bloody placenta becomes their wings.

Hm probably be in heaven the same age as when you were happiest in your life. The happiest/fittest/healthiest time you can think of. That would make sense to me. Trying to applying that kind of logic to the idea of heaven seems kind of misplaced though.
