Favorite Quotes in the book FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN  

I haven't read this book but went and first checked the net on some of the reviews and excerpts to know first what this book is all about and found it not as interesting for the following reasons.

1. I believe according to the Bible that people do not go to heaven but to Hades when they die where they wait for the Lord's judgment at His return.

2. Basically it speaks of finding meaning to life without God.

Note: Sorry for answering here out of topic but I was looking at some of the "no response discussions" my friends started here who includes you and help them get their discussions moving.

Advice to a newbie: avoid starting a discussion which have a limited scope like this discussion (I started that way too), people would not know how to respond except maybe say, "Sorry, I haven't read this book."

Keep it up, with all your good responses, it would not surprise me to see you have a 9 or even 10 star rating which myLot rates you when you get to 100 posts.

I have read the book, and yes we share the same sentiments. I also like the line "No life is a waste. The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking were alone." That's why, I never ever think again that I'm alone.
This book is one of my favorites. I just borrowed the book from a friend but after reading it, I bought a copy for myself. This book really inspires me.
Have you read Mitch Albom's "Tuesday's with Morrie"?

"In heaven all the interesting people are missing."
