Will immortality in Paradise lead to boredom and a desire for annihilation, thus making Paradise seem like torment instead of bliss?
Boredom is a painful feeling, and such feelings do not exist in Paradise. Every delight in Paradise is free from any painful or disturbing aspect, unlike the delights of this world. The wine of Paradise does not cause headaches or loss of reason, and the spouses in Paradise are purified from everything that diminishes the marital relationship, and the food and drink of Paradise do not result in waste or belching. Boredom leads to a desire for change, while the people of Paradise will abide therein forever, never desiring to leave it, which confirms that Paradise is free from boredom. These thoughts are from the whisperings of Satan.
