Do Christians believe that heaven is in the clouds or outside outer space?
A:In ancient times, Christians certainly thought that heaven, or in some cases the heavens (there being seven heavens), were just above the earth. As late as the early second century, Acts of the Apostles has Stephen see heaven open and he saw Jesus on the right hand of God (Acts 7:55-56). Since the invention of the telescope, this belief can no longer be sustained. Most Christians prefer to avoid the question altogether, while others see heaven as far away in outermost space. The theological position is now usually that heaven is not a place, but a spiritual state.

Why did so many ordinary people believe in heaven and hell in Medieval Times?
First of all, their very lives depended on not only being Christians but on accepting exactly what the Catholic Church taught. The fate of the Cathars, Christians who believed in heaven and hell but who held somewhat different beliefs than the Catholic Church taught, is evidence of what happens to those who reject any of the Church's teachings, as is the fate of those accused of witchcraft. Even without Church discipline, most ordinary people in medieval times would have believed in heaven and hell, because it was an age of great superstition.
