IT DEPENDS IF YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT

No-one knows one way or another. Some people have faith that there is, others believe there isn't because no evidence for it has even been found.
Saying it exists because the bible says so is no evidence at all... the bible is wrong on a lot of things (flat Earth, creation, etc etc) - none of which make any material difference to the spiritual messages it carries but which do demonstrate that the bible cannot be totally relied upon in the physical context of the existence or otherwise of heaven, hell or anything else.
Personally I believe that when you're dead then that's the end - therefore you make your own heaven or hell right here on earth.

Well, see, it's called having faith. However, I've heard that the only hell is here on earth. It's strange that there is very little in the Bible about hell, but lots of scriptures about heaven and tons about earth. Matt. 24:35 is interesting in that Jesus says "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away." No mention of hell at all.

Greetings!!!
This is an age old question, stood upon by the layman and debated amongst the scholars. There is no mention of a Heaven or Hell created FOR man as far as "I" can find in the Bible. I could be mistaken...

You're using false logic in your question. In an arguement, you cannot prove a negative and evidence for an assertion must be made for the one making the claim. If heaven does indeed exist, you would have to provide evidence that it does. There is no independent, dispassionate evidence that either heaven or hell exists.
How could you reconcile that an all-loving god would send his own creation to be banished in eternal suffering?

No heaven and hell [and religion] are make belief things. Try to be a good person in this life, that is all that matters

I don't have any reason to believe there is a heaven or hell however there is an Earth and it's a wonderful place, we should take more care of it.

YES! there is a heaven and a hell. i know for a fact. if u read the bible it will tell u, and answer all ur questions in the bible. read the last chapter in the whole bible, it talks about the end of the world, the anit-christ, and a lot of other things about heaven and hell. the chapter is called Revaltions. its one of my favorite chapters. Hope u like it too

Yeah it's here on earth if you live a good life and provide for yourself and keep yourself healthy then you're in heaven, but if you sit around and wait on someone else to make your life good then you're in a hell of a state of being.

Because you live them daily. Life is what you do of it. If you live happy, that's heaven. but if you do harm to someone, conscience is there to haunt you for a lifetime. THAT's hell.
