I saw once a definitive analysis proving that heaven must be hotter than
hell (streets flowing with gold vs brimstone lakes, which would boil into
vapor at temperatures high enough to melt gold).
Perhaps this:
The temperature of Heaven can be rather accurately computed. Our
authority is Isaiah 30:26, "Moreover, the light of the Moon shall be
as the light of the Sun and the light of the Sun shall be sevenfold,
as the light of seven days." Thus Heaven receives from the Moon as
much radiation as we do from the Sun, and in addition 7*7 (49) times
as much as the Earth does from the Sun, or 50 times in all. The
light we receive from the Moon is one 1/10,000 of the light we
receive from the Sun, so we can ignore that ... The radiation falling
on Heaven will heat it to the point where the heat lost by radiation
is just equal to the heat received by radiation, i.e., Heaven loses
50 times as much heat as the Earth by radiation. Using the
Stefan-Boltzmann law for radiation, (H/E)^4 = 50, where E is the
absolute temperature of the earth (-300K), gives H as 798K (525C).
The exact temperature of Hell cannot be computed ... [However]
Revelations 21:8 says "But the fearful, and unbelieving ... shall
have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone.."
A lake of molten brimstone means that its temperature must be at or
below the boiling point, 444.6C. We have, then, that Heaven, at 525C
is hotter than Hell at 445C.

I wouldn't mind going through some history with my typo
file and a calculator, if theres any interesting paradoxes
I'll post.
There were also the 7 gates of Thebes?, each named after
the daughters of Amphion, (with names like Thera, Electra
& Chloris)
Isiah was written, (according to my browses) 750-680 c.BC.
The Babylonians began their 70 year rule around 605/5BC
(and lets face it they really did know a thing or two about
maths, I briefly read they moved the angle of the sun back
by 10 degrees!)
and still off topic, the lovely drifting order of the cosmological
components over the many milleniums.
Marvin Minsky's book's only just arrived so I'll go,
