No, I have absolutely no doubts in the doctrines of Christianity.
The threat of hell is a push to some immature Christians but most Christians are Christians out of love for God.
Modern science neither helps not hurts people's true faith in God and the doctrines of heaven and hell.
With love in Christ.

No. Modern science can't prove God doesn't exist. To do so would mean it has explored all of time and space, which is impossible. However, the Bible has been shown to be accurate many times, and simple logic will tell you that Christianity wouldn't have survived if it weren't true. Why would the disciples, who would have known the truth, died for believing a lie? Why would Paul become a Christian when he got paid to kill them if Jesus didn't appear to him? These things help convince me that Christianity is real.

Atheism wouldn't have a perception gadget, in simple terms the opinion that there isn't any God. No my possibilities of going to heaven or hell relies upon on me. If my deeds are 50/50 good or undesirable then perhaps your calculation will be excellent What do you advise in atheism. Atheism signifies that you do not imagine God exist. that's it. So what do you advise by using "In atheism"? Who the F'ok is we, so are atheist a collection or something, a club? so that you providing an decision? an decision in protecting with what....hmmmm......oh yeah atheism isn't in protecting with something except you do not imagine God exist. when you're Buddhist that must be one difficulty, yet you're literally not. you're an atheist devoid of philosophy or perception. Even Buddhist have that. Atheists do not, perhaps that's why they loiter round them like lost domestic dog dogs. they prefer that experience of belonging. No you're literally not making experience, now end putting with Mary Jane before posting questions.

No. I had a period of time when I was an atheist, but it certainly wasn't fear of hell that made me re-think my faith. It is simply this: if Christianity is not true - what have you lost? If you believe, then you gain the benefits of faith in the here and now, including civility and mental health.

The existence of heaven and hell is one of my doubts.

There are many Christians like myself who know there is no hell and have no fear of it. I have also studied evolution extensively and know there is no solid evidence for macro evolution.
