some people believe in heaven for there religion


but some people for other reasons.

like a friend of mine he aint religious but he believes in heaven

the reason why is he never got to meet his mom she died in childbirth so he believes in heaven so when he dies he can see her up in heaven

i think that is a great way to think


also my brothers friend sister died yesterday of cancer aged 7 and what my m8 sed wen i told him maybe god has another calling for her which i also think is a good way to think.

i never used to believe in heaven but i think i do now just over the last few days

anyway ur views on this?

Old fashion christians believed in Heaven and hell, But Modern chrisitians don't. They don't believe it as people have flew past the clouds into space & Haven't seen a cloud with dead people on it, And they have dug into the ground but haven't found any signs of the devil. But there is a theory about Purgatory. It is where you clean your soul of sins and can have a clear concence.

Learnt that in R.E today.

"Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment". Humorous, but true if you think about it. Im not telling you what to believe, but you shouldnt believe in something just because you hope it's true. Im not pessimistic, but realistic. And also, other than things from religion that disclude this, whether or not you believe in heaven, doesnt change that it is or isnt there.

In my opinion, I think people believe in God,Heaven etc for comfort reasons more than anything. Like an imaginary friend who you can talk to when upset.

I do think your friend believing in heaven is kinda a nice way to think really.

I'd like to believe in heaven because it's a nicer way to think about dead people, rather than their lives just ending.
but I can't make myself believe something because I like the sound of it :P

True. However ironic. My favorite quote ever:

"Religion is a source of comfort and strength in a world torn apart by religion"

I believe religion provides some individuals with reassurance of their actions. Without a set of rule for them, they'd be completely lost, however, religion changes that.

For people that believe in heaven and not religion, I believe they want freedom from following rules, but still have some assurance that they'll have a good afterlife. Kind of hypocritical, but to each their own.

I believe in heaven and God (: I'm a muslim.

They say that when a mother dies after giving birth or their baby dies, when the mother/the child goes to heaven their mum/child will be there waiting outside the gates.

Haveing a reason to want there to be a hevern, how ever good, will never make it so "/
As gommeinc put it, religion is simply a sorce of comfort, although admittedly its more a sorce of abuseing the want for that comfort than anything else "/
"A good person doesn't need religion to do good. But it takes religion to make a good person do bad things."

Personally id much rather simply end, than go to heaven given the choice "/

We use religion to numb and pleasure ourselves. It's things like these which we use to attempt to bring us closer to this state of perfection to make us happy, these things that we believe bring us closer to "god", that liberates us but in reality does nothing but make us numb, inebriate us and make us more and more mechanical. Where in order to survive and function a "fuel" is needed; have the assurance that there's a higher power that makes you better than everyone else or at least being perfect to just look like you are, all to make life seemingly worth living.

But this contentment instead makes us automatons in need of another "hit" in order to survive. So we use these methods and crutches to try to reach this perfect intangible state being but instead bring us further and further away from it because these things are a synthetic and induced happiness, as well as completely temporary, where the constant need for them makes us more like soulless machines.

What the hell. I never really believed in god or heaven..just that something is above us, not god just some sort of thing..(hard to explain) but because of some events that just happened in my life I think it's all bs. There's no god or heaven if you ask me. If there is one, he's unfair.

I like the concept of constantine, heaven and hell are actually on earth but are behind an invisible wall that we can't see (3 dimensions, earth, hell, and heaven) Makes it seem abit more easier to understand
