But, heaven was pretty close to earth in those days. I think God needed to move heaven out of the range of the brick builders and carpenters so he moved heaven during the confusion.

I think heaven is now a zillion, zillion, zzzzzzzzz......... light years away now that we have translators and God made people "talk in tongues".

Now, no-one can get there or get here. Heaven is too, too far away.

It's true. Jesus has not come back yet. He is still on his way to heaven.

Of course now that we have discovered the stargate things have changed somewhat. We are close to decoding the dial in codes for hell and heaven - should be cracked any day now.
Last I heard from god, he was madly trying to create another dimension that cannot be reached via the stargate.

"Still on his way to heaven."
lol. Loved it!
Imagine the time to return.
Pathetic to keep waiting for that Jewish christ.

It was not Jehovah who got upset with the tower. It was the Sumerian god, Enki.

From a Sumerian tablet circa 3,000 BCE:

Once upon a time there was no snake, there was no scorpion,
There was no hyena, there was no lion,
There was no wild dog, no wolf,
There was no fear, no terror,
Man had no rival.

In those days, the lands of Subur and Hamazi,
Harmony-tongued Sumer, the great land of the decrees of princeship,
Uri, the land having all that is appropriate,
The land Martu, resting in security,
The whole universe, the people in unison
To Enlil in one tongue spoke.

Then Enki, the lord of abundance whose commands are trustworthy,
The lord of wisdom, who understands the land,
The leader of the gods,
Endowed with wisdom, the lord of Eridu
Changed the speech in their mouths, brought contention into it,
Into the speech of man that until then had been one.
