Everybody wants to go to heaven

As I sit here coding (or attempting too) and listening to Pandora Radio on my Jimmy Buffett channel, Kenny Chesney's song "Everybody wants to go to Heaven". Here is an excerpt of the chorus:

Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to go now
It made me think of the holiday house and walk with my wife and mother this past Saturday. A young lady was passing out religious literature. Her "hook" was, "have you gotten one of these yet?" And as I took it, she says "It will tell you how to get into heaven someday".

Well, I threw it away... for the sole reason above. Everybody wants to go to heaven, but I don't want to go now - and I am not so sure I will know when I want to go.
