Heaven is real But the biblical Hell you speak of just means grave. As for heaven I want to live for ever right here on earth. If every one is going to heaven, what happens to the earth. God clearly tells us, that the meek shall inherit the earth. God's plans have not changed since Adam's day. He was suppose to live on earth in a paradise for ever, but he messed up. God never told him or any one, that they would go to heaven when they died. God is the same God as he was 6,000 years ago. His plans HAVE NOT changed.

God created the Earth to be inhabited. I'm not ever going to Heaven. I'm going to live on a paradise Earth (Revelation 21:1). This scripture speaks of a new heaven and a new earth. If everyone dies and leaves the Earth, why would the earth be restored?
If everyone who dies goes to Heaven or Hell, why did none of the people who Jesus brought back to life speak of what Heaven is like?

I can not believe you are truthful on the heaven and hell bit. It's possible, but also living your eternity after life in nothingness is probable. I sure guess I'm going to hell. I have good works. Been baptised. but im not a memeber of a church, except my church in my head. and i dont have the grace of god. i have the grace of everything.

It depends if you will go to heaven when you die and the only way you can go to heaven is if God the Father accepts you into heaven. No one knows if you will go to heaven or not, only God.
Both are real.
If you do go to heaven, it is because the Father has accepted you into His kingdom and so that you will live forever in heaven at God's side. You go to heaven because God loves you, God loves everyone and He loves everyone so much that He would want them to be with Him after they die.
There is no certain way to go to heaven. You just have to do the basics: follow the Ten Commandments.

I'd rather go to hell then spend eternity with some of the Christians I've seen on this site.

Heaven is just a fantasy place created by the mentally ill. I'm sure you can understand that part at least. The Bible is just a man-made play script, with several actors God, Devil, Jesus, Satan, Adam, Eve etc, and of course some intriguing imaginary places like Heaven, Hell, Purgatory and Limbo.
I certainly don’t believe in the Bible and I doubt any reasonably intelligent person would either. However, if you view the Bible as a man-made play script, with several actors God, Devil, Jesus, Satan, Adam, Eve, Noah, and so on, then you can certainly start to see a clever interwoven plot, that the audience is unaware of. It’s really just a drama thriller with clever twists.
You see, if you seriously think about it in an unbiased manner, then clearly the actor God in the Bible could really be the Devil, and the audience (religious believers) are being sucked into being the bad guys, who then use religion to get everyone fighting each other.
On the other hand, the more intelligent audience (Atheists) spot the plot and try their best to teach believers that this is just nonsense, stop getting sucked in. Some people have over time decided that the play is real. That's very sad.

That's your opinion and you're welcome to it. And I can guarantee you that Jesus Christ DID NOT advocate JOINING a church via membership. Remember, he said "where two are three are gathered together, there I am also." He doesn't say diddly about joining some money-grubbing church. Of course, he also states emphatically that HE is NOT to be worshipped, so if you're worshipping Jesus Christ, you're doing exactly what he said NOT to do!! He said to worship "God the Father." NOT HIM. So, according to your criteria listed above - if there is a hell (there isn't - its here on earth), you're doomed to spend eternity there because you're breaking the rules set down by Jesus Christ. Shame on you!

Why am I going to heaven, you ask? Why, to have a hell of a good time, I say!
