Through trust in God and meditation and prayer we acheive peace. At times without God we go through turmoil and feel alone, fear, dispair, etc.

Biblically, it is a PHYSICAL place, and is commonly a tenet of faith for all Christianity.
It is probably BOTH physical and mental, in other words eternity is all encompassing touching upon body and soul, your reality and imagination totally amalgamated (you see as you are seen), truly fascinating, and at the very least mind provoking from this side of the great spectrum!!

that is actually a good concept.
maybe heaven and hell really are states of mind. and once we die, our souls are left to either wander the earth in peace or in despair, depending on the things we have done through our lives.

When we are in the middle of a problem, the solutions often evade us. Fears and tension can create a negative obsession, when you think about the problem continually. - Most definitely

exactly right. Heaven is meditating on positive principles, and hell is meditating on negative principles. The choice is ours.

YES. States of consciousness. Neither are "physical places"

They must be states of consciousness. Nothing else makes a bit of sense.

I think hell is listening to the inane nattering of Christians. It's like listening to my three year old talk about the Fairy Princess Forest....

Yes! I do believe they are states of mind!

You're getting very close to Buddhist thought.
Buddha said “All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”
