Heaven
From Atheism
Heaven is a place where good people go when they die according to Christianity. Traditionally Christians imagined the blessed souls in heaven sitting on clouds, playing harps and worshiping God eternally. Today Christians tend to call Heaven a place or a state of mind where good people are perpetually happy and worship God perpetually.
For those Christians who do believe in Hell the majority of mankind will end up there. Heaven is where the tyrant and torturer is perpetually worshipped. That looks like another form of Hell.
Islam refers to paradise rather than heaven but the belief is similar.
In the Simpsons episode, "Thank God it's Doomsday" Heaven is a place where everybody's wish comes true. Homer wishes that an angel's head blows up, and got a room by the kiddie pool. This is different, and is why many poeple hope heaven is like. (After, if you've spent your life worshipping god, would you want to spend the rest of eternity doing that?)
