Celestial marriage has them running their own worlds as gods.

This would imply that some soul is running our planet, would it not?

I’m content to let God be the only God

You covered that. (Regardless what we as sons of Gods will be rewarded with, we will never, ever be on a level with the One True God, His Son and the Holy Spirit.)

and dwell in Heaven as a servant-peasant in the New Jerusalem where the streets are made of gold (IOW, used like concrete, only much more beautiful).

As you said, we will never be on the level with GOD, so even if you are the 'seed of creation and life' (that which dictates the pattern and form of life and the will to survive), you are still a servant-peasant, and the Universe is the New Jerusalem and you can pave the streets of your planet with anything you want.

What I am trying to say is that material existence will be gone, and spiritual existence is a totally different thing. How the 'spirit' or 'soul' would 'view' it's 'surroundings' is really a matter of endless speculation. The only objection I have to the Mormon concept is that it would tie one to the material plane (one planet).

One thing I know for sure... I don't know what will happen .

I’m ready to snooze.

Thank you for the enlightening conversation.
Perhaps we can continue tomorrow.
