Heaven or Hell - where will you end up?

Let's pretend they both exist.

I have done some not so good things in my life but overall, I think I'd be heaven-bound.

I’m a gay man, definitely hell 😂

happyhillock · 15/04/2019 17:13

Probably hell for all my sins

ThereWillBeAdequateFood · 15/04/2019 17:15

Probably hell. I’m not interesting enough to have done anything bad but I think the entry criteria for heaven is pretty strict.

YourSarcasmIsDripping · 15/04/2019 17:33

Some kind of fucked up limbo.Grin

Babyfoal · 15/04/2019 17:39

Heaven. Because I'm wonderful

Lwmommy · 15/04/2019 17:41

As a determined agnostic i think it'll be 'The Void' for me.

GiantPretzel · 15/04/2019 17:43

Which religion's criteria are we using for admission to either, though?

Craftycorvid · 15/04/2019 17:44

As a Pagan, much jollies in ‘Summerland’ before being re-processed and coming back for another go at life! It is a slightly better bet than being Christian where I’d absolutely be destined for hell based on commandments broken (not the deathy ones, I hasten to add). Mind you, reckon most of the fun people I know would be in the queue for hell too....

Girlundercover · 15/04/2019 17:45

Purgatory probably, indefinitely ☹️

mimibunz · 15/04/2019 17:46

Depends on the criteria. Grin

InsertFunnyUsername · 15/04/2019 17:47

Heaven probably, even the devil would think "Sod that" Grin

Good question really i have done good deeds but ultimately, im a bit of a bitch 🤷🏼‍♀️

MaudebeGonne · 15/04/2019 17:49

I believe I have tried hard to live a good life, and although I have made some mistakes, I have done more good than harm. So I will be at peace at my death and that is as close to heaven as I think you can get.

apleasantdayout · 15/04/2019 17:54

Yeah, which religion? Most versions of Islam and Christianity would require you to be an adherent of that faith to have any chance of getting into heaven.

Even if not religious - what are the criteria? I have done things I am racked with guilt over. When young I was confident I was a very decent person, but I have be tested many times and failed.

So on actions, probably hell. But if feeling shitty about it counts as a mitigating factor I might just make it into heaven. Not sure I want to go there though. I quite like the fact that (assuming there is no after life) that life has a full stop when you die.

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 15/04/2019 17:59

I'm not done with the cycle of birth, death and rebirth yet. I've still got so much to learn.

So heaven and hell can both wait.

IncrediblySadToo · 15/04/2019 18:01

They both sound like a nightmare to me!

I’m going with my very own version of an afterlife 😊

Obviouslynotallthere · 15/04/2019 18:29

Probably hell . I'm a parent of teens and that's what they think of me atm.

golddustwomen · 15/04/2019 18:30

I'll be going straight to hell. But so will the majority of people I know Grin

Aimily · 15/04/2019 18:32

Forever in purgatory, neither really good or really bad 😂

Minecraftfan · 15/04/2019 18:35

Hell most likely because I am an Atheist and done bad things in my not really bad just bad. But I don't .ind because if Hell is real most of my friends and family will be there.

Vitalogy · 15/04/2019 18:35

I think a more important question is where are you now, and what are you going to do about it if it's hell?! That's if you'd prefer heaven of course.

shitpark · 15/04/2019 18:35

Hell. But it wasn't my fault, can I do that? Ex does it all the time. Take no responsibility, refuse to understand the nature of things, so will go to heaven

shitpark · 15/04/2019 18:37

Actually, morals are a human construct, I, pretty sure a higher being would be beyond all that, so I'll go to heaven

GiveMeFiveMinutes · 15/04/2019 18:41

Probably hell. At least it will be warm and I'll know people there.

MitziK · 15/04/2019 18:43

The music's certainly better, for a start.

frenchonion · 15/04/2019 18:47

I'd be joining the party in hell I think.
