I accept that in eternity the glorified bodies of men and women are going to be different and look different but what are these differences in their heads and hearts that are going to survive beyond those useful on earth for the propagation and survival of the race? What is this difference which will no longer be seen as a source of discord and yet survive as a difference into eternity?
