It could be a peaceful way of life here, but why does not it lead one to heaven?

Because Heaven is the domain of a sadistic, killer God who drowned, sickened, and slaughtered millions (more than Hitler), repeatedly commanded his followers to hurt and kill people, and created a place of eternal torture for the purpose of barbecuing his own alleged children. Buddhism, as a peaceful way of life, would NEVER condone or support that kind of evil being, nor sentence good, moral people to an eternity there. Non-Christians don't need Heaven, and most would never want to be there anyway, considering the company.

Buddhism can be the way to heaven.
Yes, if it 's exist. but the last goal of Buddhism is not trying to go to the heaven because in Buddhism opinion, the heaven is not the true one.

It shows you know nothing of Buddhism or life in general outside of your bible (aka Goat Herders' Guide to the Galaxy).
Buddhists and atheists know that there are no 'gods' so your heaven place doesn't exist and therefore we don't aspire to go to that non-existent place.
Your threats won't work; they only work on children and frightened people.

This question is a matter of opinion. your idea of heaven is not the same as others...You just struggle to realize that.

Because heaven doesn't exist.

Nina, Buddhists don't believe in the heaven you believe in! We believe in reincarnation...

how do you know this? see, this is why I hate christians...they are so arrogant in their child-like beliefs. the fact is is that when you die, you rot in the ground...that's it.
