Firts off let me ask you this, what is humanity to you? And what does heaven consist of in your own philosophy? If you go back to the beginning of philosophy our body is only the form of our souls. The soul is said to have existed before the body itself exists. Once the soul finds its body (form) it becomes existant. Or so we say what is existant. Now back to your question, some philosophers say that once the body (form) dies, the soul still lives for all eternity in non existent form. Now is that non existant form heaven? And depending on your definition of humanity does our souls still have humanity or do we lose it?
Sorry for my explanation being really long and sorry for not giving a definite answer but in philosophy there is no definite answer and no right or wrong way of answering a philosophical question.
The only thing we require to be good philosophers is the faculty of wonder.

What does it mean to be human? We have the right to choose good or evil...we must face death...we do not know everything...we make mistakes...we sometimes hurt people we love...we use the toilet.
I have read in the Bible that in Heaven there will be no more tears. But I don't believe in the Bible. I think it is made up by people who even deceived themselves and created this story out of fear and superstition. And it grew from there...that's part of humanity. Sorry, I didn't do a great job of answering your question lol. I'm tired.

You can never lose your humanity.
To go to heaven, you simply have to accept your human.

It's been said the devil is the greatest humanist, and it might be very true that one would have to shed their humanity in order to enter heaven. However personally I think you just have to be happy and then you already are in heaven.

I don't think so because your soul goes to heaven and your soul is what makes you human so more than likely not

we are spiritual beings having a human experience. If there be such a thing, heaven, we might be wiser and closer to the Universal Creator

No. Why? Because when you are dead, you are dead. Therefore no heaven, no Valhalla, no Elysium Fields, and in consequence no humanity. If you are buried, you get eaten by the worms and if you are cremated you are reduced to a pile of ashes. That's it! End of story!

Billions have died and not one has returned to confirm religion's promises. Not a very good track record is it?
