		Swedenborg's afterworld is a kind of reflection and amplification of our own, and his vision of moving and active collective of heavens, occupied by the very real blessed dead, has been a tremendous influence on Goethe, Emerson, and Jorge Luis Borges, among many others.
		Swedenborg's sobriety, lack of pressure, consistency and intellectual integrity have put me against the wall and made me face the fact, for the first time in my life, that the Bible might be something more than merely the culture of a particular group of people form antiquity.
		Swedenborg has harsh criticism of the churches ("they know nothing about heaven and hell"), but at the same time his book is like an amplification of the Bible, explaining it, giving much more detail, making it more credible.

		Swedenborg's "heavenly" experiences negate the Words of the LORD Jesus and embarrass the propriety of the Body of Christ.
		Swedenborg argues that this "conjugial love" is not for the sake of offspring because marital sex is for the sake of gaining Wisdom.
