Heaven and hell are subjective. For instance Jewish text don't have a Definitive concept of heaven or hell...the whole fire and brim stone concept for Christian's was birthed in the new testament. The old testament on the other hand is actually composed of Jewish texts, therefore the closest thing to heaven and Hell in the old testament would be nearness to God..nearness as in proximity...the further away, the closer you are to Hell..example....In the old testaments Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden...this would be Hell. In biblical times Jew's often exiled people.....sent them away from their temple and God....again this could be interpreted as hell on earth for a Jew. Now, I just used Judaism and Christianity as an example. There are many religions that can be compared in the same fashion......We all have our own heaven and hell..... as a Christian I'm suppose to step out on faith, which is the belief in something above all doubt, because the bible says so. However, blind faith doesn't suit the scholar in me. I walk a fine line of questioning and maintaining my faith.

When Jesus died and went back to heaven, He said that He would go to heaven and prepare a place for us and someday He would come for us and take us to Heaven. It is in the Bible. If you have a Bible, please take and read it. It does talk about Heaven and hell. It uses Hades which is hell.
It isn't in the mind at all. They are both true places and Heaven is the place you want to go, not hell. Hell is a place of weeping and gnashing of teeth. It is where satan lives.

Yes, heaven and hell, both exist.
Heaven exists in holy books, hell in people's dark desires.
Heaven exists when loved, hell when hated.
Heaven exists in orgasm, hell in (violent) death.
We all experience both heaven and hell, and therefore, they exist.

Yes, they both exist. Those who say that those places do not exist cannot change the truth simply by believing otherwise.
The Bible is my standard for truth and is where I place my faith.
It tells us that heaven and hell do exist.

Both heaven and hell definitely exist.
I am 100% certain.
It says they exist in the Bible.
"God said it,
I believe it,
That settles it!"

read the bible, bit by bit , from the beginning, and go to church to get some understanding, a good real church where they dont sing Oprah, I cant help you understand why they do exist i am just a person like you, but you have to know in your heart that Jesus is real, and trust him because he says there is a heaven and hell, just like it is god and the devil and good and bad...

People who believe in heaven and hell believe because they've been told about it. NO ONE has ever experienced either and told about it, because they would have had to have DIED first. Therefore, they DONT 'know', they simply 'believe'. There is no proof, but they believe anyway. Thats why they call it 'faith'. Belief without proof.
