 It would get boring. By 1000 years, everyone would develop severe mental illness. Bored of everything. And that's nothing compared to eternity.

 I understand that. I wouldn't want to live forever on earth (or however long humans make it). But for a Christian afterlife like heaven, it's supposed to be unfathomably perfect. Eternity there doesn't sound too bad
