Years ago Henry Ward Beecher wrote a sermon called The Heavenly State. According to what I read, he thinks Heaven and Hell are not literal places.
As a matter of fact, he says, "We are at liberty to make our own heaven. The maiden has a right to make a heaven that will represent to her purity, power, heroism, goodness and grandeur, in their most ideal forms."
I, of course, don't believe any of this. But I wanted to hear anyone else's thoughts on this matter. You can find the sermon here:
