What kind of bodies do you see humans having? |

I see us having bodies the same as the ones we have, only immortal and any disorders or disfigurements erased. |

I have an odd answer; which is a question. What does your heart look like? It will probably look something like that! |

Are you talking about when Jesus comes back? If so, I personally haven't thought on it much. I think I'd almost rather stay in heaven then come back to earth. ^^;; If we're talking about going to heaven I don't believe we will have "physical" bodies when we go to heaven because we leave our earthy body we will become spirits. When I imagine myself in heaven I have a physical body, but that's because my mind can't comprehend what a spiritual body will look like.  ~Calen |

I've always thought like the bodies we have now but without sickness, pain or any problems. Generally like angel bodies, I can't get over the idea of it being slightly luminescent. To describe in words would be holy, perfect and without sin. |

Well, it's all confusing and we end up getting new, flawless bodies, going to heaven in the Rapture, staying for a thousand years, and then coming back to a new and perfect Earth. It may not be in that order, but those are the key events. I see us having physical bodies that are flawless, but still look like us. |

A lot of your idea about spiritual bodies and resurrection bodies and who-what-not is very intertwined with doctrinal views about the apocalypse, which is very muddled and very few people agree over it. The glory of fantasy writing is that you can choose how you wish to write this sort of stuff in your world. In mine, spiritual bodies pretty much don't exist. So as far as writing is concerned, you should design the metaphysics of your mortals however best helps drive your themes about the nature of humankind. |
