Do you believe in Heaven and Hell?

I believe that Heaven is in some parallel dimension where everything is right with the world. Meanwhile here we are, in Hell.

🤔In fact, I do! What or where it exactly is no one can truly know until they're there! If I were to keep a simple perspective on this topic, I will say this: If one knows the difference between good and bad or love(real love, not lust) and hate, joy and anger and so on, and one is given a choice between these options of say, good or bad (and I mean bad like kill an animal for thrills with no remorse kind of bad and one KNOWS it is bad)then it would be the choice made which defines one's character! With this said, I'll ask this question, would you enjoy living with those who wish to cause you harm in every way and if not, where would you expect their spirits to go when their carnal shell has expired? I certainly hope they're no where to be around when I leave this body! Hence, if there is a Hell, (and I believe in karma so I will believe in such a place as well as a place to be set free of our earthly pain called a Heaven space,universe,whatever)then I would suspect all true evil shall belong there to acquire their just desserts! But,that's just my opinion on this topic!

Heaven would be where the entire universe is bent on pleasing and serving the individual consciousness. And I think it does exist. It is the natural state of existence for all things which come into existence. Whereas Hell is where you are not significant, and instead, attention is diffused away to people outside of your body who hardly have an existence since they do not really affect you at all. Yes, I believe this is hell. Heaven is natural, whereas hell is an abomination.

The universe has only two options. It can either only serve you, or serve all the others. The more it serves others and convinces you they are the focus of your reality, the more it is a hell. At the bottom you become a slave to them. The more it serves you and convinces you that you are all that matters, the more it is heaven. At the top you become a master over all existence. There is no in between. The universe is either serving your benefit more, or others' benefit. On Earth, it is serving others' benefit most likely. I deserve heaven.
@blackwhitejester: I believe I am all that matters, to me, anyway. Nobody else's feelings or opinions matter, they're all useless in my eyes.

That is good. It is the only sane way to think. Being on Earth though, where everyone supposedly thinks that way leading to conflict is an illusory hell. I don't think it is the way existence is meant to be. I think it is natural for each and every soul to be in its own personal heaven and that it is every person's destiny eventually since it would be the only natural way of existence which makes sense.
Just a personification of definitions in the form of imagery. It's arguably a state of mind, but no we don't go to a place with it's features are based on earth, one planet in an entire universe of many universes..
I doubt they'd have a human hierarchy as well which in itself is telling of it's human construction. Originally incentives to be a certain way, taught in a very human way being that those will be punished if they do not comply with the words of what seems to be a very neurotic and insecure fellow..
I'm not sure. They say God forgives and loves EVERYONE, so it makes no sense to me as to why he would condemn someone to spend all of eternity in hell.

No, I don't. Mainly because to accept the notion you need a level of faith I'm not capable of.

Nope. They are just fictional places. A bit like Hogwarts but less fun.

There is no Heaven. This Hell is all that we have.
