hell doesnt exist.. yet anyway.. i take it you ask this from a Christian point of view and i will answer from a Christian point of view.. if you read in the Bible it doesnt say that there is such place as hell or heaven or anythign as such.. there is no waiting room and no saint Peter deciding whether you go to heaven or hell. once you die you are dead. to understand this better you need to know the "formula" to life.
first God created man from earth/soil/mud he formed the entire body which is like a dead body.. then he gave it the kiss of life and gave him breath..
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Genesis 2:7
notice he didnt give man a living soul he became a living soul as a result.. so:
body+breath of life=living sould (you)
in some languages the words "souls" and "people" are the same word
when you die you just reverse the formula:
living soul - breath of live=body (dead body)
the breath of life in the Bible is said to go back to God and then its just the body which is left which as we all know decomposes and becomes soil again.
so when you die your "soul" doesnt go to hell or heaven or limbo.. meaning there is no such thing as hell (yet) and when this is finally created it would NOT last forever just for a tiny spec of time. do you really think God, a loving father would allow his children to watch their brothers and sisters burning in hell forever and ever?

I think that there can be many versions of a "real life" hell depending on each person's individual life and situations. As for there being a "heaven and hell" type afterlife... I honestly don't have a clue. I want to say there is because then Heaven would have to be real too... but I don't know what I believe.

I don't like to think about it, I think there is something but not the hell full of fire people imagine, I saw something the other day where they thought it would be something like groundhog day where you have the same bad day over and over for all eternity, I am not a bad enough person to see that and hopefully no one I love will be

Hell may exist as may Heaven, there is certainly good and evil. There are possibly many layers of afterlife depending on the sort of life you have had. I would think you would have to keep reincarnating until you learned all the lessons and finally reached Heaven.

perhaps......how will we ever know until we die???Could we be living in it already? it is more plausable that this is all that there is but because we are deeper creatures than that we have to believe there is something more and because we are naturally endowed with morals we want to believe that there are punishments for our wrong doings especially when it seems that yes evil does triumph most of the time, we like to believe that there is some form of consequence.

Yes It does! I don't want to be in torment for eternity! If You give your heart to the Lord Jesus Christ you will spend eternal life in Heaven which is a lot better!

Depends on what you believe, honestly.
You may just be starting the next world war, between christians and athiests. Hmm, let's watch.
Haha, Im only kidding. To be honest, I dont even know, actually, no one knows, but I'm still trying to figure it out..

if hell doesnt exist then that means heaven cant exist...
so what happens to us when we die??
its a matter of faith and ones own views...
i believe in hell... not necessarily the fire pits or dantes levels... but of the feeling of pain and solitude for the rest of eternity...
best not to dwell too much

Yes. There is evil beyond comprehension. Those souls belong there no doubt whatsoever.
Everyone has free will.

that would depend on the definition of hell , im sure soldiers caught up in bloody battles in Basra believed they were in hell .. and that's a place on earth ....
