it was held that manna produced no waste, resulting in no defecation among the Israelites until several decades later
That surprises me, because the one thing I know about manna is that it spoiled. If you gathered more than you could eat in a day and tried to save the leftovers, it would go bad, except on Friday when you could gather enough for Saturday and it would be fine because gathering manna is work and can't be done on Saturday. That's how you know your manna is a miracle and not just luck.
Although I guess that doesn't really argue against digestion producing no waste, but it goes against my intuition.
I have nothing to say. Wow.
Yeah. We really did talk about stuff like that. (I should maybe clarify: the "will we poop in heaven?" discussion wasn't really serious -- we were probably drinking when we had it -- but had a kernel of seriousness.)
(I totally want the endless crab leg buffet in heaven.)
I'm just saying, there BETTER be cake in heaven.
(I totally want the endless crab leg buffet in heaven.)
Endless sushi and taco buffet for me, thanks. Yes. Good.
Oooh, that too. Totally. And all the craft beer that I can't drink right now while my shoddy non-glorified body won't let me.
If heaven doesn't have endless cheese platters, cupcakes, and absinthe, I'm going to start a splinter heaven.

Oh, right! I can have as much sour cream, Brie, and cream cheese as I want with my new, non-glorified body! Mmmm, cheese. Mmmmm, cream cheese frosting.
The poop in heaven conversation sounds like a "What D&D alignment are comic book characters?" conversation you find in game stores.
Personally, to the degree that I still believe in such things(Which totally changes by the day sufficiently that I could give both Richard Dawkins and most pastors massive headaches.) I'm kind of rooting for food without, um, aftereffects. And maybe floating around like ghosts.
I imagine the Vikings in Valhalla enjoy a good poop. And fart contests.
