Where Does The Modern Christian Concept Of The Afterlife Come From?

The image of heaven, a society in the clouds with angels and harps and the like is a common motif in pop culture, great works of art, and Christian culture in general. Parents tell their children that Grandma is up in heaven, watching over them and will be there when they die.
Hell, too, has been portrayed as a firey, subterrainian realm filled with tortured souls subjected to any number of punishments. Satan is depicted as a red skinned demon with horns and a goatee. People talk about how child molesters and serial killers will burn in hell as soon as they die.
Yet, the Scriptures are not consistant with these images. I suspect much of this imagery comes from pre-Christian traditions, but when did they become authorized by the Church (if indeed they ever were)? If not, how did the perception of the afterlife in such terms come to be so widespread?

Which Utility Vehicles Are Most Likely To Contain Expensive Tools, And How Can I Spot Them ?

I own a security company, and I would like to offer my services (night watch of their vehicle) to people who are forced to leave their vehicle outside during the night. I know that they are often the target of robbers.
Which professionals are more likely to keep tools that are expensive, not too cumbersome, and easy to resell (no serial numbers or niche application), as I assume that they could be good customers for my security company ?

Why Do So Many People Play League Of Legends?

I mean, come on. Lets face it. It has a terrible community, and the game itself isn’t THAT hard. I understand that there is a lot of strategy to it, and a LOT of right-clicking, but then again, isn’t Dota 2 the same thing, but with more champions and strategy? League of Legends isn’t that good of a game either. What draws so many people to it? Oh, and don’t say that Dota 2 is “expensive” or “hard to get”, I have 10 copies of it in my steam account right now. And you can get it for 2 cents on the steam community market. If you play 600 hours of League of Legends, you now have 1600 ELO, which is considered decent. Which is stupid. I know Team Fortress 2 isn’t the same genre, but I have 1000 hours in Team Fortress 2. And I am still terrible at this game. Plus, League of Legends is also just a huge plan to take all your money. I love the way Riot does this to people. They keep rotating the champs so that if you get a champ that you really like, you either buy it with ip at the end of the rotation or if you’re lazy, spend your IRL money. And don’t even get me started on skins. I know this question is a bit long-winded, but I can’t be bothered to correct it all. Please don’t start a Sheet-storm in the answers. I would like some actual responses please. Come on, Riot. What is your secret to getting all these players?

Are Avocados A Good Substitute For Butter In Vegan Dishes?

They aren’t affiliated with animal testing or anything, are they?
Are avocados healthy as well? I’ve heard that they have a lot of fat, but probably not as much as butter, right?
