17. I think the resurrected bodies will be

similar to the resurrected body of Christ when He appeared to His Mother Mary, Mary Magdalen and the apostles after His Resurrection., i.e., He was able to go through doors and appear and disappear. The bodies will be perfect - without imperfections.

Heaven is a matter of faith as is hell. I believe it will be very different from what we imagine, we humans being limited in our imaginations.

Heaven will include the Beatific Vision; hell will be the absence of the Beatific Vision.
Many believe that at the moment of death all are given a last choice.
For that reason, I personally believe that few choose hell, but perhaps throughout all of humanity, some have made that choice.

I too look forward to seeing others in Heaven, especially my spouse, but also my ancestors, as I have some unanswered questions to ask them
