I guess, Hell and Heaven is just something to instill fear among people, and because naturally, humans like to be
rewarded over something they've done.
Japan's Shintoism does not have Hell nor Heaven. Everyone will become god, complete with their personalities.
actually, even if there's no such 2 worlds, there will always hell and heaven on earth, that is, karmic
retribution. For example, a skilled robber will soon be killed or jailed. if you steal something, someone else will
steal from you eventually. that's the cycle XD
"don't treat others what you don't want to be treated" isn't that familiar? XD

Concept of heaven and hell exist in many beliefs and traditions...don't just talk about because you think Bible is
correct, it exist...if it's true, it might be other beliefs that's true...don't just assume
yours....
every religion speaks of theirs as purest true one, why is it so? because the use of "absolute" in their
belief, thus, enforcing automatically that other religions are either fake, or distorted.
in my personal opinion, scriptures are flawed by humans' chauvinistic thoughts. Religiously speaking, God makes no
mistake, only humans create the problems, misinterpreting God's words. Some people go as far playing God's
role- they say this is wrong that is wrong, yet focusing less on spreading love and peace. gays and transgenders are
discriminated because of people "playing the role of God"
in short, leave things to God to judge.
that's why i always ponder, "religion is to protect us from sins, yet many commit sins in the name of
religion."
i find religions funny sometimes too.
not to mean to incite conflict, if Bible is true, then why Islam says Bible is "distorted by Christians
themselves"? (that answers why God sent Prophet Muhammad to re-address God's words properly)
plus, has anyone ever realize that............Bible discriminates women?
Quote by Timothy
2:8-12
"But I do not permit a woman to teach or to assert authority over a man, but to be in
quietness
Again, if Bible is perfect, then it means humans' interpretations are at blame. So, I will stick to the fact that
Bible is really distorted as well.
Personally speaking, I prefer to absorb any words in scriptures that has value of humanity. I myself am free-thinker,
not siding on any religions, but that doesn't mean I deny God. It's just that I'm open to any
possibility. If I die and meet face to face with God, then I wholeheartedly bow to God. Otherwise, let my body be
distributed to nature while I go for eternal sleep.......zzzzzzz XD
In short, the only answer to end this unending question is God to come down and reveal to us, face to face. meanwhile,
while waiting, why not we be good, stay good, contribute to society and country? (because Santa will be giving us
presents too X-P XD )
