For heaven's sake... understand the concept of Hell and Heaven(;-)\n\n\nUnderstanding the whole concept of Heaven? Heaven that is also called as Swarga in Hinduism is the stage when our Atman the soul within waits for a suitable body for it to manifest again. This Atman the soul within has a balance of positive merits due to which it remains in heaven (Swarga).\n\nAny Atman the soul within that has a negative balance of merits is awarded hell, also known as Naraka in Hinduism. Naraka (hell) is also the stage when our Atman the soul within is in waiting for the next manifestation to occur.\n\nBriefly, it can be stated, that if we have the balance of positive merits from zero to plus hundred we shall be awarded the stage of Heaven (Swarga) after our "Atman, The soul Within" has left the mortal frame. However if the balance of merits is between zero and minus hundred our Atman the soul within shall be given a place in hell (Naraka).\n\nHeaven (Swarga) and hell (Naraka) are interim stages in the cosmic Life cycle of our Atman the soul within. The moment this Atman the soul within gets matching parents on Mother Earth... it shall again manifest a body... the body can be that of a Human Being and also of an animal depending upon the balance of merits or demerits possessed by the Atman.\n\nAs stated clearly in the Bhagavad Gita... the foremost of all sacred scriptures (the doctrine dictated by Lord Krishna to King Arjuna in the battlefield of Mahabharata between the Pandavas and the Kauravas... no Atman the soul within can directly gain immortality from Heaven.\n\nLord Krishna is considered as an Avatar (a direct incarnation of God) in Hinduism. He descended on Mother Earth roughly 1000 years before Bhagwan Mahavira, 1077 years before Gautama Buddha, about 1500 years before Jesus Christ and about 1700 years before the advent of Prophet Mohammed.

Hell is the worst thing you can imagine.  Hell is so bad...it is unimaginable.  There is no way to describe how bad it is going to be.  Fortunately, we have a God who loves us and wants to save us from that fate.  To avoid hell, you have to apologize or (repent) for the bad things (sins) that you have done, and know and believe that God sent his Son, Jesus Christ to die for your sins.  If you believe that and LIVE AND TELL outloud, that you believe that.  Then you will live forever in Heaven.  Heaven is as good as Hell is bad.

We are in hell. I have no doubht about that. All the sufferings in the world today made me to come to this conclusion. i dont think there is another hell. This world itself is worser than hell. I think it was heaven once, now definitely it has become hell.

No where.\nThere is no heaven or hell. Hell was used as a way to control people into doing good.

The word hell is found in different Bible translations as "the grave", or "world of the dead". It is known in the Hebrew language as sheohl and the Greek equivalent is haides, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of mankind. Geenna is also used as a reference to "the pit", or "the grave", and "fiery Gehenna" is speaking of The Valley of Hinnom (Gehenna) which was outside the walls of Jerusalem. It was used as an incinerator for the filth of the city, including the bodies of dead animals, and of executed criminals who were considered unfit for burial. It was kept burning with the addition of sulpher...hence the fire and brimstone and sulpher you hear about.  \n As for the earth hanging upon nothing at all, that is at Job 26:7 "He is stretching out the north over the empty place., hanging the earth upon nothing"  and that the earth is a circle or sphere, that's at Isaiah 40:22 " There is One who is dwelling above the circle of the earth, the dwellers in which are as grasshoppers..."  The Bible was scientifically correct long before it's time!!

God is anywhere and everywhere. The same God that resides within me also resides within you. Heaven and Hell are both right here, you experience one or the other depending upon how  you live your life.

All people both good and bad go to the Bible hell. It is mankind's common grave. What Scriptures prove this? Here are a few:\nPsalm 139:8--"If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there." \nAmos 9:2--"Though they dig into hell, From there My hand shall take them; Though they climb up to heaven, From there I will bring them down." \nJonah 2:2--"And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice." \nRevelation 1:18--"I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death." \nPsalms 146:3,4--"Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish." [ The dead cannot feel anything, neither pain nor pleasure for they have no thoughts ] \nEcclesiastes 3:19-20--"For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again." [ So what happens to both people and animals when they die? They all go to the same place.]\nRevelation 20:13-14--"And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death." (Hell delivers up the dead, meaning a resurrection from the grave, and what happens to death & hell? They are thrown into the lake of fire, meaning total destruction.

There is only one hell. The bible tells us that God wishes that none of us would perish.

That depends on the definition of sin and if it really exists.  It also depends on the definition of hell and if hell really exists.\n\nIf you wish to go to a place called Hell, there is a little town called Hell, Michigan.  You may go there in the winter one day when it has frozen over as a joke as I have done.  It was a bit more convenient for me, however, as I was taking a cousin to the Detroit airport and we had some spare time that winter to goof off.

Hell\n\nDefinition: The word “hell” is found in many Bible translations. In the same verses other translations read “the grave,” “the world of the dead,” and so forth. Other Bibles simply transliterate the original-language words that are sometimes rendered “hell”; that is, they express them with the letters of our alphabet but leave the words untranslated. What are those words? The Hebrew she’ohl´ and its Greek equivalent hai´des, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of dead mankind; also the Greek ge´en·na, which is used as a symbol of eternal destruction. However, both in Christendom and in many non-Christian religions it is taught that hell is a place inhabited by demons and where the wicked, after death, are punished (and some believe that this is with torment).\n\nDoes the Bible indicate whether the dead experience pain?\n\nEccl. 9:5, 10: “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all . . . All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol,* the place to which you are going.” (If they are conscious of nothing, they obviously feel no pain.) (*“Sheol,” AS, RS, NE, JB; “the grave,” KJ, Kx; “hell,” Dy; “the world of the dead,” TEV.)\n\nPs. 146:4: “His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts* do perish.” (*“Thoughts,” KJ, 145:4 in Dy; “schemes,” JB; “plans,” RS, TEV.)\n\nDoes the Bible indicate that the soul survives the death of the body?\n\nEzek. 18:4: “The soul* that is sinning—it itself will die.” (*“Soul,” KJ, Dy, RS, NE, Kx; “the man,” JB; “the person,” TEV.)\n\n“The concept of ‘soul,’ meaning a purely spiritual, immaterial reality, separate from the ‘body,’ . . . does not exist in the Bible.”—La Parole de Dieu (Paris, 1960), Georges Auzou, professor of Sacred Scripture, Rouen Seminary, France, p. 128.\n\n“Although the Hebrew word nefesh [in the Hebrew Scriptures] is frequently translated as ‘soul,’ it would be inaccurate to read into it a Greek meaning. Nefesh . . . is never conceived of as operating separately from the body. In the New Testament the Greek word psyche is often translated as ‘soul’ but again should not be readily understood to have the meaning the word had for the Greek philosophers. It usually means ‘life,’ or ‘vitality,’ or, at times, ‘the self.’”—The Encyclopedia Americana (1977), Vol. 25, p. 236.\n\nWhat sort of people go to the Bible hell?\n\nDoes the Bible say that the wicked go to hell?\n\nPs. 9:17, KJ: “The wicked shall be turned into hell,* and all the nations that forget God.” (*“Hell,” 9:18 in Dy; “death,” TEV; “the place of death,” Kx; “Sheol,” AS, RS, NE, JB, NW.)\n\nDoes the Bible also say that upright people go to hell?\n\nJob 14:13, Dy: “[Job prayed:] Who will grant me this, that thou mayst protect me in hell,* and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a time when thou wilt remember me?” (God himself said that Job was “a man blameless and upright, fearing God and turning aside from bad.”—Job 1:8.) (*“The grave,” KJ; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Sheol,” AS, RS, NE, JB, NW.)\n\nActs 2:25-27, KJ: “David speaketh concerning him [Jesus Christ], . . . Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell,* neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” (The fact that God did not “leave” Jesus in hell implies that Jesus was in hell, or Hades, at least for a time, does it not?) (*“Hell,” Dy; “death,” NE; “the place of death,” Kx; “the world of the dead,” TEV; “Hades,” AS, RS, JB, NW.)\n\nDoes anyone ever get out of the Bible hell?\n\nRev. 20:13, 14, KJ: “The sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell* delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their

"hell" does not exist, the idea for "hell" was made up from christianity and copied from the pagan greek/roman religions of the time.\nBuddhists will not go to hell.\nLook in the torah and the tanakh and you will not find a single reference to "hell"... perhaps in the re-written christian "old testiment" you will but that is changed and meaningless
