The supernatural -- including God, heaven, hell, Satan and tooth fairies -- is an invention of the human imagination.
Faith and logic are antithetical. If religious adherents would admit that they believe for PERSONAL, rather than logical, reasons, THEN they would be honest about their "faith". But claiming faith on a logical, rational, basis is dishonest -- faith is a personal position . . . not a logical conclusion or rational choice.
Faith and doubt always go hand in hand. Faith without doubt is BLIND faith. It takes a closed mind to sublimate doubt to the point of blind faith. Normal people leaven their faith with a little common sense. Doubt always nibbles at the edges of faith. After all, without doubt, faith would have no context, no purpose, no meaning, no point. Would it?
Because there is no evidence for anything supernatural (including God), NOBODY can claim ANY knowledge of it. Anybody who does is lying or delusional. It takes suspension of disbelief to believe in the supernatural: one must convince oneself that the impossible is possible. This is the opposite of curiosity. You have one life, one quest . . . and you choose to surrender it to something you can’t know anything about.
When people talk about faith, they're usually talking about the supernatural: God, angels, miracles, etc. There is, of course, lots of doubt involved because the supernatural is entirely outside the human (natural) realm. It's not so much that God, or angels can't exist . . . the real point is that NOBODY has access to the supernatural and thus NOBODY knows ANYTHING about it. Anybody who claims to have faith in something he knows absolutely nothing about is actually confessing to placing his imagination before, and above, his intellect.
Imagination has its place . . . but not where life decisions are involved. Placing imagination above intellect is surrendering your quest for meaning. You are surrendering the meaning of your life to your religion . . . to your version of God.
And that's fine. Just be honest about it. You gave up and made a leap of faith. Your faith is a personal position . . . not a valid logical conclusion.

Not sure why you're asking this if you're an adult. Do you even know what hell is? It is the common grave for mankind. When you are dead, six feet under, you cannot do anything at all except just lie there. The dead are conscious of nothing at all. Ecclesiastes 9:5
Secondly, there is a small flock that is of the heavenly class. I doubt that you are since you pose this question. There is a large earthly class after Armageddon that will receive everlasting life on a paradise earth.
There is no sex or marriage in heaven as it is a spiritual place, not earthly as in the way things are now in the earth.
If you have to ask if you are of the heavenly class, guess what? You are not. This is a seal that God has put on the foreheads of those that are of that heavenly class. I have an earthly hope though God will be the final judge.

there will be no sex in hell. hell is a torture place therefore there would be no pleasure of sex. sex was designed by God for both pleasure and procreation. i do not know if we will have the same desires in heaven ... but I am willing to bet that we will not be shortchanged of any pleasure. you will know no saddness in heaven , so whatever the answer is , you will be satisfied / happy .

Heaven and Hell don't exist. We ALL know that.
Oh BTW to the person that said we'll be with God so we wont need to, Is God going to pay attention to just you? Or everyone? Wooh how many gods are there to go around.

This question is absurd. Perhaps I could counter that with my own question. Does the easter bunny have sex? No one can possibly claim to know how heaven is run let alone prove it exists.

There's no sex in Heaven. Being with God will be BETTER than sex.

All human desires are gone. There is no pain in heaven, no jealousy, not grief, and no need for anything. I don't think there is sex in heaven. Sorry.

In hell you might have to be on fire forever.I do not think you would want sex while the devil is cutting of your parts and super gluing them back on with molten lead
