Malarky Mark:
:Sorry for asking a dumb question, but
:if Jesus rose from the dead phisically
:and then ascended to Heaven, wouldn't Heaven
:have to also be phisical for Jesus to enter it?

As I understand it (and I'm not Aquinas), being raised from the dead and being resurrected are not the same thing. Lazarus was reanimated, as was the widow's son, but these are not the resurrection. In Pauline terminology, "the corruptible takes on the incorruptible", so the resurrection is a transformation of the whole person, not just a renewal of the same body...
or at least that's the short answer.

: Sorry, but I'm just confused.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you want to discuss it more.
