Where is this test that PROVED elephants know that one day they will die? I mean "know" in the sense that human beings know. Not in some instinctual level. I gave you my source for the Moon thing, now you give yours. As far as heaven goes ... no. I don't know what it is like. I am drawing conclusions from the Bible. Eden was supposed to be heaven on earth, a nirvana, a paradise. True, I don't know if everything is perfect in heaven. And it probably isn't, seeing as god couldn't even get earth right.
