That is not a scientific question, because hell, paradise or whatever are not places that can be observed, described or experimented with.
And everybody will have different opinion about it. Myself, I don't believe in hell and paradise. But that is just an opinion, it cannot be proven either way (that it exists or that id doesn't)

This is a religious/metaphysical question, and does not belong in the "Astronomy and Space" section.
All the evidence we have indicates that when the electrochemical activity of the brain ceases, that is the end of a person. It takes a while for your body to rot, but it will, unless it is otherwise disposed of.
It will be nice if there is a wonderful place where we go after we die and all the people we love are waiting there for us. There is no evidence to indicate that it is so.

It is an important question. Living through eternity is more critical than an existence on earth for 80 - 100 years. It is the spirit of mankind that animates the body, and it is that part of us that exists forever.
There has been only one person who solved the problem of forever. Jesus said that "He came not into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him, might be saved." I know of no other way to exist at peace through eternity, than to accept Him as being the One to save you from the evil of this world and of your own self.
You might look for yourself if it is true or not. Read the book of St. John, New Testament. It will help you make a decision one way or the other.

Death is final, so we don't go to any places invented by priests to control people's actions and thoughts. The most mature men need no "carrot and stick" to motivate them, but lesser humans are motivated only by reward and punishment. The Christian Heaven is a bleak place with no pleasure allowed. Moslems may have 72 houris, and that is much better. Dad once told me I couldn't go to Heaven if I did this and that. I retorted that I wouldn't want to go to such a place if it existed and that he saw only two types of Hell. Tom Sawyer told his Aunt Polly he didn't want to sit on a cloud playing a harp forever. I don't either, so I am glad death is final. Some people have difficulty accepting that emotionally, but it beats the alternatives.

It depends on How you have been on this earth. If you have involved in lots of sins and violence etc. Hell would be the proper place for you. If you have not done any harm to anybody and led a peaceful life with nonviolence and been perfect and right, then Heaven welcomes you. I hope you are a nice innocent person. Be good and Do good.

I'm going to give the logical, yet depressing answer. Heaven was created as a way to cope with the loss of loved ones. Hell was created as a form of worldly justice for self satisfaction. And to answer your question, we are going to rot in the ground unconsciously when we die.

I'll answer this question scientifically.
Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed.
so i believe that there is no existence of soul or any such things.
b'coz how do they get energy?
and when we die our relatives r going to bury us.
and the body will decay, and all the energy stored in our body will go into the soil. and then the plants take them . and them animals eat them ,and we eat the animals.
so i strongly believe that there is no existence of soul. and i think that only the soul will go to heaven or hell.

It depends on your religous beliefs, some believe in reincarnation, when you die you posess another body. Some believe in heaven and hell, (like me, but I don't follow all the misrepresentations of the Bible, I'm kind of a christain on my own beliefs.) some even believe in 10,000 virgins when they die. Who am I to intrude on your beliefs? You believe what you want.

By question it seems you are a believer in God. I think if you do your share of work you will definitely go to heaven and if are a wicked piece of $@%$ then you go to hell............
But if don't believe in God you go to back to the mineral cycle of living matter!!!
