The Feast of the Assumption is coming up, (not that I want this to devolve into a debate about the Assumption, or soul sleep which may come up.) and I have been thinking a lot about the Resurrection of the Body in the World to Come. Recently I've been coming across a lot of information on the bodily aspects of Aspergers, we seem to be very sensitive to bodily things, touch and feelings. (which we Catholics believe to be a bodily thing) When I think of and seek Heaven now, I tend to think more now of the World to Come, as oppose to, for lack of a better term, heaven-Heaven. Not that I don't think about and seek that heaven, but the idea of being in union with God and contemplating Him, while cut-off from my five senses via physical death, is very hard for me to wrap my mind around; and also I'm an idealist (which may be come among as Aspies) and human beings are meant to be united with our bodies; it's part of our nature and thus, the ideal.
Being re-united with my body in the World to Come really appeals to sensory temperament, what are your thoughts on the Resurrected Body in the World to Come, as a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, Jew &c.?
