(and why do I continue asking about all the characteristics of a place I'm pretty-sure doesn't exist? )
The closest answer I can find to this question was actually given by a Muslim---from Islam's bible The Qur`an. The Muslim shows us (if we click "SKIP AD" after the 5-count at the adfly-link) that G*d created Heaven & Earth to test humans.
That sort of makes sense from a Christian viewpoint---if humans are good, the place becomes Heavenly. Sound right?

Why has my response been deleted?
Have we finally reached a point where a difference of opinion is offensive?

@CatGods That, or are too many people not using it right?

@CatGods Yes, commoners are known for that kind of sense; making believers even more-sure of their royal sense

according to the scripture god is everywhere, at every time.......but mankind, though created by him, does not have those same abilities. so in order for God spend eternity with man (man kind: whose life is only limited on this earth........) he had to create Heaven for those who believe, so they could live with and rejoice with him always.......

'According to the Scripture' is something you should only say when you have a verse in mind (which you should quote, or at least cite by giving the 'book chapter:verse').
Where does Scripture SAY G*d is omnipresent (in connection with His action on Earth)?

@Hopefull90 God doesn't control the weather. Oh, He COULD, and Christians use the powers He gives us to survive the storms. But the storms are based on rules that were all planned out before He even 'fashioned us out of the mud'!

@mythociate: Ps 139:7-12., Jer 23:24. God knew where Jonah was even if he tried to hide. We didn't get to sight see in Oklahoma City on the 20ty of May. My sister just missed the tornado in Moore so we tried to get as far away as we could. We missed the one in El Reno by a couple of days.

According to the bible, God created earth as a paradise, and that was Gods intended purpose for the earth to be paradise without suffering.
