many of you might say ive never commited murder but if you hate someone then you have commited murder because in your mind you dont like them and if you look at a man/woman in the way that you want her then you've already committed adultery

to Heaven, because my heart belongs to Jesus Christ.
You are right----and if you gossip--you murder with your tongue.
We're ALL sinners--falling short of the glory of God.

I must preface my answer by saying that I am agnostic. For that reason then I'll respond to your question as follows:
God's judgment of me would depend upon who God is! The God of any of the recognized religions which support a belief in Hell would surely condemn me to that fate since I am a nonbeliever and irreverent. Conversely, the Deity whom I can imagine would not engage in damnation, being a truly benign entity, omnipotent and omniscient. Having conceived and incited a Cosmos, my version of "God" (or Original Consciousness) would be of an Intelligence beyond our comprehension, thus capable of understanding human beings in their frailties and imperfections and able to forgive them their ignorance or skeptical natures, even their perpetrating of evil since he is responsible for the makeup of the Universe and its occupants!

We're in the 21st century and people are talking openly about Bronze Age superstitions and going to an imaginary place in the sky promised in a bunch of books put together by the votes of a committee of people with their own agenda in the late 300s.
Their agenda was to keep the population under control and to get money from them so they didn't have to get a real job.
The greatest sting of all time was born in the fears of the people about death and the desire for eternal life.
Yep; that sounds real sane.

I would go to Heaven not because I deserve to....I deserve to go to Hell. But because God gave of the gift of Jesus Christ who paid for all of our sins I won't get what I really deserve but will go to Heaven when my time in this world is over.

How is being judged by an imaginary being going to send me anywhere? Now, if I was judged favorable by Simon Cowl I would be going on American Idol.

Everyone sins. I have sought forgiveness for my sins from Christ Jesus, the Son of God, so I will go to heaven. All have sinned, all are unclean. You cannot wear your good deeds like a trophy, they are like filthy rags to the Lord. Seek forgiveness from God for your inherent sinfulness, and you will achieve everlasting glory.

I believe I would go to heaven because I have repented of my sins...the latest one I committed today...but I will go to sleep in peace tonight because I have talked to God about what happened and asked His forgiveness. And He forgives us our sin and makes us white as snow. I trust that.

I would be in heaven. Not because I am a good person, because nothing in me is good. But I would be in heaven because Jesus paid the price for me and I have accepted that gift.

Most everyone would probably go to hell, because I think that's what you want us to say. Humankind's nature is sinful, and I personally don't believe we can help that. But what's the point? If we resist into one thing, it's basically like, 'bye-bye, you can't be here.'. Unless you repent, of course, but that'll only lead you back into temptation. =/
