Stephen Hawking recently made comments regarding heaven (again!), as reported in the Sydney Morning Herald.
As usual, there would be the follow up 'discussion' (slanging match) between those who share his understanding of the world, and those who differ. Often it is hard to find a reasoned voice amongst the noise, but NT Wright has written a helpful response in the Washington Post.
Did you note the points that Wright makes about heaven? Do they line up with your understanding? Or more importantly do they line up with a biblical picture of heaven?
Did you see his mention of you? Opening line: "It’s depressing to see Stephen Hawking, one of the most brilliant minds in his field, trying to speak as an expert on things he sadly seems to know rather less about than many averagely intelligent Christians."
Are you an averagely intelligent Christian? Then your an expert on heaven! Make sure you share your knowledge, so people aren't left groping in the dark.
