Imagine meeting a time traveler from 2500, who takes pity on me and gives me a book from the future where all my questions have been answered, one after another. What’s consciousness?

I assume something like this is how everyone spends their first couple of days in Heaven, whatever it is they do for the rest of Eternity.
