Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, used God's name in vain? These are just a few of God's moral laws. If you stand guilty before God on judgment day, you will end up in Hell. God cares for us. so much that He sent Jesus to die on a cross to pay the debt for your sins. The only way for anyone to get into Heaven is to ask God to forgive you for all of your sins, turn away from your sins, and put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Only then will you be Forgiven and enter Heaven. It doesn't matter who you are or what you believe, this is what must take place. You must choose, and Eternity of Joy in Heaven, or an Eternity of punishment, pain, and Torture in Hell. I don't want you to go to Hell

You know, I believe you when you say you don't want me to go to hell, and I thank you. But even though I don't expect you to understand, I know with as great or greater certainty that hell does not exist, heaven does not exist, and that the bible is not the infallible word of God but the very fallible word of Man; and believing in those things will stunt my mind and prevent me from thinking critically.
I cannot allow that.
So thank you, but rationality must prevail.

That relies upon. Christians declare that Heaven is eternal bliss, yet my thought of bliss is distinctive some others, and its definately not worshipping God all day and night with out end. and then if I knew somebody I enjoyed lower back on earth became into burning in Hell, such as a son or daughter, i could be dealing with my very own very own Hell in Heaven. And if I wasn't i does not be me, that's contradictory to what Heaven is meant to be like. With Hell, i assume the soreness could at last bypass numb after a collectively as. I recommend you'll be there for eternity, and soreness can merely are available in many distinctive varieties. After a pair of few millenia or roasting you may probable be use to it. yet that's all certainly hypothetical. - ModernSocrates

Since Heaven and Hell are both figments of someone's imagination and have been passed along to you as sacred truths, it seems there would be little I could say to you.
There is no evil and there is no good! Some things cause terrible pain and injustice. Some awaken people to the beauty of life. All that the belief in Heaven and Hell does is to make human beings into slaves to desire and fear.
So to answer your question, I do not choose to be deluded into believing in the afterlife that has been the source of income for your religion for much too long. I pray that you will wake up and discover truth.

If there is a heaven and a hell, I'd definitely like to go to hell. To begin with, I won't have to spend eternity next to this vindictive god, that wants to punish me for not loving him. And besides, the way over there (a.k.a.: life on earth) is a lot more fun.

sin dose not send anyone to hell or keep anyone out of Heaven. Rejecting God is the only reason for being eternaly seperated from God( in Hell).
All who come to God in The Way He proscribes will receive His free gift of Salvation and enter Heaven. The sin debt of all has been paid by Christ with His Blood. God will see no sin in any who come to him in The Way He proscribes.

Sorry, but I choose none... simply because we don't go anywhere after we die.. There's no hell.. nor people go to heaven... I used to believe in it, but man was I fooled...
First of all, nothing happens after we die.:
* Psalm 146:4 says: "His spirit goes out, he goes back to his
ground; in that day his thoughts do perish."
* When pronouncing sentence upon Adam, Jehovah stated: "Dust you are and to dust you will return." (Genesis 3:19) Where was Adam before God formed him from the dust of the ground and gave him life? Why, he simply did not exist! When he died, Adam returned to that state of complete absence of life.
* Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10, says: "The dead know nothing . . . In the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom."
so.. if we have NO THOUGHTS, there's NO working, planning, knowledge nor wisdom... basically you don't exist! how is it possible that you are aware that you are suffering in so called hell?
Also the Scriptures also state: "The wages sin pays is death." (Romans 6:23) So..Since the punishment for sin is death.. why should we remain being punished after death if he clearly states that after we die we basically will be free of sin??
Hell's actual meaning is grave not a place of torture or fire:
*Consider Job.. a righteous man Wishing to escape his plight, he pleaded: "Who will grant me this, that thou mayest protect me in hell [Sheol], and hide me till thy wrath pass?" (Job 14:13) How unreasonable to think that Job desired to go to a fiery-hot place for protection! To Job, "hell" was simply the grave, where his suffering would end.
Finally, the bible states that only 144,000 people will enter heaven.. that's quite alarming as that's a very very low amount!
World Population today is 6,499,697,060..and that's just today! What about all the years back and those that died??
Well, these 144,000 that go to heaven are ONLY for chosen ones that will rule with Christ (Revelation 14:1, 3; 20:4-6; Luke 12:32)... and not just for all the people that were good.
For the rest of us.. Bible does promise us to live forever on earth.. so that would be our real final destination after death.
(Ecclesiastes 9:5; John 11:11-13, 25; Acts 24:15; Revelation 21:1-4)
"The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it."—Psalm 37:29
Plus it was His main purpose from the start.. for us to live on earth.. why change it?
For those that actually read all of this,sorry for this huge explanation..lol.. I just have the need to show people the truth of this.. too many worry about it! :-)

Fire and Brimstone Crap yet again.
Certainly do not fancy heaven the bloody place is going to be deserted.
I have been assured by every different Church canvasser at my door that only members of THEIR church is goin to get in and when you see and listen to the pratts and the afore mentioned crap would you want to be spending the rest of your life there.
Oh pets are not allowed in and they don't play Texas Holdem.
NO WAY.
