I believe that a person creates their own heaven and hell and they don't have to be dead to be there. Also, one person's hell or heaven is not anothers so it's not necessary that when you die, your loved ones are really there with you. In my opinion, when you die, you are in a dreamlike state and that is part of your heaven/hell...

'Course not. If "creating their own", you're misusing the terms.
When you die, you rot and help fertilize flowers. That's all.

I believe in Heaven and Hell. Do you believe for every positive there is a negative? The same is true of heaven and hell. I don't believe in your version of heaven/hell but I do believe! About the dreamlike state... I must be dead every night when i dream?

I like your take on it. I don't believe in hell. I believe that there is probably an afterlife and that it would be similar to life. Perhaps there could be a heaven-like place, that would be great, of course. But no hell. I don't believe in it at all. Eternal damnation and punishment is just complete fiction. Quite honestly, using that theory to scare people is just morally wrong.

I believe that the Divine conforms to our expectations. Heaven and Hell do exist, but only apply to those who has faith in them. Since they are both Christian and Muslim afterlives, it makes most sense that only Christians and Muslims would spend thier Afterlife in either one. Hindus have their own afterlives, so do Buddhists, Wiccans, the various pagan faiths, and every other religion. Heaven and Hell do exist but are not universal for all people. If you expect to go to either, you probably will.

You are your body and that is all, so when you die you cease to exist. Of course you can refer to anything as 'heaven' or 'hell' but in that event it's just a figure of speech rather than any kind of religious or supernatural belief.

I agree that Heaven and Hell is within the mind and exist right here on earth.

I'm living in Hell right now. But mine's not as horrible as other people's.
Emo sounding, I know. But hey, I think my life could be pass off as Hell.

i think that heaven is made up so when a close family member dies you can comfort yourself by saying that they are now in a better place. and hell was made up to scare people into being better people.

I believe that this here is hell. If you don't cross over to the other side when your body dies, you go right back in-utero for another life here. YUCK!
