IF you believe in God than you should believe in heaven.  Heaven is where(ever) God is.  Heaven is Paradise, the other side of the gulf from where hell is.  Both are "holding places" until Judgment day.  There is life after the death of this flesh body.  (Absent from this flesh, present with The LORD)  It's those in hell that may face the second death, the death of the soul on Judgment Day , after the millieum, the 1000 years when God throws satan and all that are in hell (all of hell) into the lake of fire.

Yes.  I would only hope that after living this life with whatever each of us experiences (good, bad, ugly), that life after death would be there for all of us and it would be glorious as God had intended for it to be.  There will be no hurt, no pain, no suffering, (no intolerable rude people :) ). There would be peace throughout and within. We may have the choice to return (reincarnate) and try again, as some say.  We may see past loved ones again.  I for one miss my dogs and my  friends & family members who have passed.

I do believe in an afterlife, but assuming heaven did not exist, then, yes I believe humans would create a belief in one for comfort and expectation of a new life to come.  I could even go as far as to say the mind is a powerful thing, powerful enough to even create supposed proof of afterlife by communicating with departed souls.  But, if the mind is that powerful, enough to falsely prove life exists after this one, isn't that power enough to say something bigger is going on here.  It points to the path the soul does live on, in my opinion.

Heaven is where God exists and everything is in perfect peace. There is no such thing as time in heaven. Everything is perfect in every way and the ones that reside there will be in perfect harmony\nHell is a place of eternal torment,fire seven times hotter than any fire on earth, complete darkness, no hope of any out, home of the devil and all his demons, no relief,and everything else that produces torment.

Yes these places are real.\nYou will experience Hell for eternity if you commit suicide, because the Bible says that you shouldn't murder (and killing yourself is murder.)\nGod will not take your life; you will have to be saved first.\nI do not worry about death; God protects me. I also do not worry because when I die, it's my time. \nemail me: weir_weirdo@yahoo.com for q's about heaven and hell.

I don't think you have to believe in God to believe in some kind of afterlife, there are many relgions in the world each one with it's own beliefs and viewpoints.  I personally believe in a soul, but that does not automatically mean I believe in Heaven.  I do believe something wonderful will happen when I die, I am just not sure what that is yet, and I hope it is along time before I find out.  Maybe he was there, because evryone was thinking about him.  It's hard to say.

Heaven was created by God, it is a very real place and exist at this very moment.\n we are told that there will be no more sorrow, no more tears no more pain in heaven, to me then, if a loved one of ours didn't get to heaven, then we would remember them no more,because if they aren't in heaven then they are in hell, that would cause us great grief, and sorrow and pain.

Soem people do. Heaven is a place where we are around others, friends and relatives, who love us and help us. It is that simple.\n\nSome people come right back to earth in another body without experiencing heaven first. That can be considered hell by comparison. Sounds wierd but as a former channeler it is true.

Yes, there is life after death. Where you will spend eternity depends on the life you have lived here on earth. The bible clearly states that we must \n1.) REPENT\n2.) Be Baptized in the name of Jesus!\n3.) Receive the Gift of the Holy Ghost! (speak in other tongues) It's a heavenly language between you and god that no one else understands, unless they speak that language. \n\nYou will walk on streets of gold, see walls of Jasper, and gates of pearl. \n\nThe bible says, when the trumpet sounds, the dead in Christ shall rise. I don't know about you, but I sure hope I am on that train!

There is no way to tell until u are there. Heaven is gonna be a new world, with mansions and streets of gold. It's way better than what the mind can think of.

In some sense, society and culture can be viewed as a non-material aspect of our beings, so you have to be very careful about what you mean in this question. No, I don't believe in an after-life. When we die, we're dead and we have no consciousness left. It's like a candle that has been blown out. The flame no longer exists. I don't believe in spirits in the sense of some disembodied energy with consciousness. \n\nOn the other hand, I regard myself as a spiritual atheist. I believe that life is to be lived fully and happily. I believe that we should look around us and enjoy the beauty of the universe. I believe that we should love, and learn, and teach, and help others to achieve their goals. But I need no after-life to induce me to do these things. It is simply part of having a good life.

Heaven is that moment when you realize that your life will turn out okay.  Heaven is being able to learn from your mistakes and not regret how you might have been able to do things differently.  Heaven is knowing that no matter who is right and who is wrong, the truth of faith cannot be changed.  And if you believe in one thing and find out you were wrong, there is little you can do about it.  Heaven is a state of mind, a dream, a hope that keeps us going when we feel like giving up.  Heaven is what we want it to be, solice and peace.\nHell is not loving who you are inside.  Hell is doubting your faith.  Hell is having to defend your ideals to society.  Hell is heartache.  Hell is inner fear and uncertainty.  Hell is not believing in yourself.  Hell is also a state of mind, a nightmare, a darkness that creeps into our minds and can consume us.  Hell is mental torment.  Hell is spending a life worrying about something you cannot change or dreading something that is already done.\nIn order to ever have peace in any sort of "afterlife" you must first be able to find peace within yourself.  When you find that, Heaven is not far away.

Heaven isn't a place. It's a state of mind. It's what you imagine it to be and I guess you could speak whatever language you want.

Ask someone who has been there and back. Jesus, Paul, John. They all said heaven is real. So when I die, I will be in eternity. I do not know what that is like, but I know its going to be awesome. I'm just thrilled that my ticket to go there was bought and paid for in advance!!

The afterlife (or life after death) is a generic term referring to a continuation of existence, typically spiritual and experiential, beyond this world, or after death.  Most religions have theories about the afterlife.
