Invention of the Human Soul and Heaven, Limbo and Hell

Tom Ball

    Mark O. was a man who had invented the human soul. He used new technology to convert humans into holograms before death and kept the holograms up to date until the person died. Then when they died, if they’d lived a good, productive life, they’d go to Heaven. Heaven was located on Luna inside a giant Supercomputer. Only 2% of those who died went to Heaven. And many in life thought they were good but were not allowed into Heaven. I told him, “Living a long life was enough. No need of Heaven which in any case had no sex or drugs.” He said, “But they get cerebral pleasures out of philosophical thoughts and Heaven is really for the elite who are kind and good.” I asked, “But what happens when one tires of Heaven?” He replied, “One option is to return to normal life in a new body with a new face or one can disappear altogether. But most in Heaven had a number of clones and children in real Worlds, and so their genes lived on, in the real World.”
    People who were really good became angels and ruled Heaven. And God was here, but he kept a low profile. He was mainly interested in those tormented souls who tried to fight against evil whilst still alive.
    With the creation of Heaven, Nancy W. created Hell and Limbo for those who didn’t qualify for Heaven. Many people went to Limbo when they died these days. And Hell and Limbo were both located in Supercomputers on Earth. And everyone seemed satisfied. But about 63% just died altogether and their soul was lost. And Limbo many souls agreed was boring. But they got in one another’s heads, and this provided some amusement for them.
    But Hell was uncomfortably hot (the souls could feel heat and cold) when one descended into Hell. And one would be greeted into Hell by a demon who assigned one to a plane of Hell. And in Hell, people were at each other’s throats and mind tortured everyone by mind reading and playing mind games. About 5% of all people went to Hell. It was a small, but significant minority. And the Devil was here, but he was mainly interested in souls that were truly evil. The evilest of them all.
    And Limbo was where most dead souls went. It was just like regular life only you spent it in other peoples’ heads. And those with the best thoughts were listened in on by far the most. Souls figured they wanted to know what made people tick. Of course, one’s thoughts in Limbo and Hell were quite different than normal life. People here, mostly thought about the people that were all around them. And also recollected their life with old friends. There was no leader here in Limbo...
    Of course, Heaven, Hell and Limbo were all agreed upon by people while they were still alive. It was part of one’s last will and testament.
