Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
Stop coloring outside the lines, missy!
Ah, but if Heaven is where you're happy and basking in the love the Creator has for you (which is my impression of the common definition), then why wouldn't the loving Creator put you in the place that would make you the happiest? Anya would be happiest in Valhalla.
If those are her only options Perkins, I say heaven, because she gave her life in the fight against evil.
well, it's interesting. The whole premise of the show "Brimstone" was that although this guy was a cop and gave his life in the line of duty, he was still punished for the sin of murder. That's always resonated with me.
I don't that Anya would have gone to heaven, because I don't know that she was really sorry for her "sins".
I think it goes beyond that, Wolfram, since she willingly chose to become a demon. Twice even.
Does her later choice to become human again negate that?

Stop using logic outside the lines, missy!
I think that Anya would rather go to your Hell than your Heaven, Perkins, and it's not very nice of you to limit her thusly.

Pffft. You're just trying to oppress my creativity. Oppressress! Fanwank or die!
If I go on a fanfic diet, do I have to go to Wank Watchers?

If your Christian stipulation about Heaven and Hell extends to the admission policies, then yes, her later choice to become human again negates that.

I've heard a theory on heaven and hell that it's the same place. And depending where on the good/evil scale you fall, you either love it, find it boring, or hate every everlasting minute of it.

Good point. It could be argued tha the first time she made the choice she didn't really know what it would mean. And the second time, there was no lasting fallout, was there?

Not really my heaven/hell, and calling me not very nice is not nice of you, now is it?
I kind of want to change my tag to Opressress.
