Yes Yes and Yes... here's why I think that.
If you define God as the most intelligent, caring and loving being in the universe, then there must be a God, no matter what form you think he takes... somebody, or some entity must have the qualities of Supreme (above all else) the only way that is not possible is if all are equal, which they are not.
If you define Hell as absence from God's presence, then there must be a hell. God as a being does have a presence, and you do have a proximity to that presence, no matter where you are. If you choose to be outside that presence, then you can be in Hell.
Heaven is being in God's presence. and again, for you to be in God's presence depends on where you and God are in relation to each other.

It is true that everyone who is not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior will go to Hell. This is a rather bleak outlook, and I also did not want to believe that was true. Could I really believe that people who are in remote places of the Earth and who honestly have never heard of Jesus or God or Christianity be held accountable? The truth is that they will go to Hell. Again, that's rather harsh. However, the Bible teaches that all people will be without excuse when they die, if they choose not to believe in God. We have to trust that God will reveal himself to those people who honestly could not have otherwise heard of him besides some divine miracle.
Your questions are very important. The finding if Jesus' tomb is one that is being regarded by unbiased archaeologists as invalid. They are calling the finding inaccurate with past findings and simply too hard to prove. We must remember that people have agendas against Christianity and would rather have people believe this to be true so that they can fulfill they own desires. For example, I am hearing of James Cameron making a documentary on this; likely to sell millions. Money is simply a selfish thing, and doesn’t care about what religion he has to try to bring down for it.
I am in firm belief God is real. And if one can believe in God, one must believe in the possibility of a life after death with him. This presents heaven as being real, and hell as also being real. Again, it is a Christian’s job to bring people to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. We find great power in the Bible. I would encourage you to read the Bible. The NIV is a popular version, though I personally have found ESV to be the best. Continue going to a community church, as you’ll find that they can also answer questions for you. Don’t let one minor “discovery” shake your faith. It is false. God is real and he loves you.

If you will study the History of Civilization at a University (not a religious one), you will learn that for thousands of years God was the Sun or a Woman. Eventually men created God as a man, Heaven, Hell and the Religion Business.

God is real. Hell is where we are right now. Hell is what we create for ourselves with our negative thinking and the darkness and misery that we choose to allow in our lives. Heaven in the place we go after we finish this life. There, we review the choices we could have made throughout our lives and the consequences each of our choices brought to us. It is a review of our learning experience here on earth. We have many lives. What we failed to learn from in this life will be brought to us in another. Reincarnation is necessary for us to achieve the perfection necessary to stay in heaven.

When we say that we are a Christian, and say that we are in doubt, then we have not yet become a Christian, otherwise we would not be in doubt. Either we do believe, or we do not; but it is never both, for it is written: A double minded person is unstable in all their ways. But having said that, "to know" these things are real, we who do believe know it, because they are things which are not seen, and those things are the things which are eternal; whereas, the things which are seen are temporary, and it is evident that they are temporary. In common and practical terms, we see daily things that are seen do spoil, become rusted, break down, and we throw them away; because of that very reason that they are temporary, and this can never occur to the things which are not seen! The Lord Jesus Christ tells us that, "Blessed are those that have not seen, and yet believe", because He Himself knows this Truth about the difference between things seen, and things not seen. We need to have faith in God, and trust that He is, and that His heaven and His justice is also "real". The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you, and strengthen you.

Who is God and what is God? Understand that and you will understand heaven and hell. A mind is delevope from another mind, therefore it is subject to error! The church is a place where truth and falsehood to accumulated and disburse to society. Find God and understand the theory of his existing and your find your answer!

They are both imaginary.
The jury is still out on that tomb, so I wouldn't worry about it yet.
