I'm somewhere in the middle, but let's say you go through life and preach and do good deeds etc only to find, perhaps, there is no God or afterlife....if you were somehow given "another chance" would you do it anyhow? Why?

Belief in Christ gives me peace from within, no matter what life throws at me. Why would I want to change that?

If I hypothetically found out that there was no God (had concrete proof) etc...and I could do my life over, then I obviously would not preach about God (not that I do that much anyways, unless someone asks me about my faith and then I just answer it)
I would want to still live the way that I do now. I would feel more empty though, since God fills a void in me that was empty before. I never knew joy and peace and hope like I have since giving my life to God, so I would think I would be more lonely.

Another chance at life? What if I ended up worst? You know, there are more people suffering than enjoying in this world. So the odds of me having a good life are not too high. I would not try again, thank you very much.

Religion or no, I think I would still try to be a good person and love everyone. But remember there is more to salvation than doing good deeds. Peace.

I do the right thing because it's the right thing. Simple.
So, Heaven, God or no, I'd live the exact same way that I do now.
Someone who does good solely to get into Heaven is a hypocrite of the first order.

I would still be a good person and tell people to do otherwise...even if there are no consequences after death ( like going to hell for evil deeds) I would still want to be a good person.

Another chance to do what? If you've done nothing but virtuous deeds and caused NO harm or suffering... it doesn't matter... your karmic benefit will be pleasant.

I wouldn't have to because there is a God.

to go through hell twice is not my idea of a good decision.
