I'm not asking what religion you are, though you can certainly share. I just want to know if you believe in a set afterlife in either heaven or hell.

no, not heaven or hell, but an afterlife, yes.

I believe in heaven as the place where God and the angels live and where the throne of God is but not as the future home for all humans who have loved and obeyed God. I believe that, as the Bible says, man was made for the earth and the earth was made for man and the meek will inherit the earth and they will live forever upon it.
I believe that hell is the common grave of mankind, not some place of firey torment where souls are tortured forever. The Bible speaks of souls as people or animals or the lives that people have. It never says anything about some etherial spiritual essence that survives the death of the body. In fact, it says that when a person dies, his thoughts perish. How could a person be punished if he was not conscious of being punished???? Some churches teach the most misleading doctrines that really discredit God himself!!!

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Neither,,
In my heart I feel there is more to reality, existence, the universe than we could possibly know. What the truth is,, I may never know. I hope it is the honest quest for truth that counts.
Heaven, Hell, God, Jesus, The Bible, these are all superstitions written by primitive people over 2000 years ago in an effort to explain or answer the most fundamental questions about our very existence. They served humanity well for a time, but it is time to look to science and what we can really see touch and measure.

Yes. I believe in the life hereinafter. It will be in heaven or hell. This depends upon my actions in this world. In Quran Surah XLV, Lo, in the heaven and the earth are portents for believers. It means that heaven and hell are madefor good believers and for sinful.

Yes, I believe in a Heaven, a Purgatory, and a hell.
It makes sense to me.

I believe in Heaven. But in Hell there's no need to believe in it. It's already here(Earth). What are the elements in Hell that you won't find it here?

i don't believe in the existence of god, heaven or hell but i can surely say that some people on this earth make the lives of other people hell or heaven by their actions.
