Summary

This quote suggests that while humans prioritize sexual pleasure in their earthly lives, they do not envision it as a part of their concept of heaven. It reflects the idea that the earthly desires and pleasures are not seen as compatible with the idealized, spiritual realm of heaven. The contrast between what humans value the most and what is perceived as divine highlights the distinction between earthly and spiritual realms, suggesting that heaven is often imagined as a state that transcends physical desires and focuses on more abstract or moral aspects of life.
