To make it quick, basically, since the people chose to obey God on Earth, they get rewarded in Heaven, where they can continue to do it. He isn't forcing it on them because they want to obey him.

Your missing my point: There are a lot of good people on this planet, my mother is among those.  However,  my point stands.  God doesn't force anything upon us in our earthly lives.  Why should heaven be any different?  No one is the perfect believer in God.  Even my mother has sinned in her life. 

Hell, I obey God's commandments as good as anybody I know.  When I screw up, I go to confession, like every other good Christian.  However, the fact remains that I want to have fun in Heaven, like everybody else, and without free will, I cannot enjoy life anywhere, whether on this planet or in the afterlife.

But, the people in Heaven don't want to do most of the things you listed, which is freedom for them. That's my point.


Then, in your opinion, what do they want to do in heaven for the rest of eternity?  Bottom line, do they have free will?  Can they think for themselves and act out of the box.. i.e. can they go crazy for at least a few milliseconds here or there?
