Would you choose the Christian heaven and hell system, if you knew you would get into heaven or would you say choose the:
Buddhist reincarnation
The Asatru Halls
Or any other system you would like to describe to me. So hypothetically if the choice was yours what would it be?

Hmmm...I think, of all the options out there, I'd have to go with reincarnation. One life, even one life spent at a full lifespan, is just too short to learn anything truly meaningful.
I definitely would not choose the Christian system of heaven and hell. For me it just seems like choosing between the lesser of two evils. On one hand, heaven is a place of perfect bliss, but boring. On the other, hell is a place of eternal suffering. So it's either have my mind tortured or my body. Not much of a choice.

I would much prefer reincarnation to eternity in heaven. Reincarnation would at least be interesting. I would enjoy coming back as different things and seeing things through different eyes. The thought of sitting on some cloud for all eternity sounds really dull.

Well, I'm not an Athiest and I'm not a Christian, but I believe when I die, I have accomplished my mission during this lifetime. I will soon be reborn, carrying the gifts of knowledge and/or the misfortunes that I have attained during this lifetime, to accomplished another mission that I have set for myself. If I have done more good in this lifetime, then my new life will be easier. If I've done more bad in this lifetime, then my new life will be harder.

Elysian Fields of the Greek/Roman afterlife.
Valhalla of the Norse religion.

A reincarnation set up, when it's possible to remember previous Lives.
