That is an unknown question, however, it is also considered to be a possibility by many theoretical physicists. There are many theories on the universe yet none can be proven beyond doubt. It has been concluded there is one universe (uni–meaning one) containing everything in existence. There may be a parallel universe. Or several, or even more. There are a few theories. And there are so many more questions and things we don’t know.
Is there really more than our one Universe and why?
We do not know. It could just be our universe or it could be groups of universes called multiverses and groups of multi verses and groups of those. We have no way of knowing but it is probable that there is extra terrestrial life who know the answer.
Sending spacecraft to Mars is all about precision. It’s about blasting off from Earth with a controlled explosion, launching a robot into space in the direction of the Red Planet, navigating the intervening distance between our two planets, and landing with incredible precision. This intricate and complicated maneuver means knowing the exact distance from Earth to Mars. Since Mars and Earth both orbit the Sun – but at different distance, with different eccentricities, and with different orbital velocities – the distance between then is constantly changing.
However, astronomers now calculate the distance to objects in the Solar System using the speed of light. They measure the time it takes for signals to reach spacecraft orbiting other planets. They can bounce powerful radar off planets and measure the time it takes for signals to return. This allows them to measure the distance to planets, like Mars, with incredible accuracy.
Distance Between Earth and Mars:
So, how far away is Mars? The answer to that question changes from moment to moment because Earth and Mars are orbiting the Sun. It also requires a little explanation about the orbital mechanics of each. Both Earth, and Mars are following elliptical orbits around the Sun, like two cars travelling at different speeds on two different racetracks….as it just took 6 months for The United States to guide itself there to check out mars surface.
Is there really a more than our one Universe and why?
We do not know. It could just be our universe or it could be groups of universes called multiverses and groups of multi verses and groups of those. We have no way of knowing but it is probable that there is extra terrestrial life but who really knows for sure.
As I age I find more and more people who have set themselves above others, some of which wouldn’t be where they are if I hadn’t been there for others. and it hurts. So I do think this. In the end we all turn to dust.
Is there any evidence supporting the idea of heaven and hell?
Well there may not be physical evidence, but many people that have been very close to dying have pretty similar memories. most say that they saw themselves below as they had this out-of-body experience. most people say they saw some flowers and other beautiful things and a tunnel with a bright light at the end. these people usually say that they didn’t want to leave their family, so they fought hard to get back in to their body.
There is much scientific evidence to back up the existence of Heaven and Hell.
Quantum mechanics reveals a phenomenon called quantum non-locality which is a situation at the sub atomic level where the laws of physics as we know them, do not apply. This, by definition, is what we call the SUPERNATURAL. The Bible tells us that, all around us, unseen to us, angels are battling demons on our behalf.
This sounds an awful lot like alternate dimensions to me. Lazarus and the rich man were able to see each other but were unable to touch. This sounds like the partial opening of a gateway between dimensions. Quantum non-locality states, particles can communicate without using time and space. God sees everything past, present, and future.
In non-linear time, all things are actually happening at the same time. Time travel is possible by using doorways between dimensions to cover vast amounts of space.
The problem is that travel between dimensions requires vast amounts of energy which thus far, are only conceivable by supernatural means. The only way to cross over to the other side is by dying. Our soul is able to travel but leaves our body behind. Basically, we all will live forever, but also, we have our present lifetime in which to learn about our options and to choose where we want to spend eternity. Good luck in your choices.
How can we know? When the notion of heaven and hell was being developed, they were assumed to be physical places, with hell down below and heaven just above the sky. Science has shown that heaven and hell can not be located in any physical location in the universe. Religion has therefore adapted by saying that heaven and hell are not actually physical places, but spiritual states of being. Even if they exist, they are nowhere.
If they exist they would most likely be in another dimension of some kind or in another universe or galaxy trillions of light-years away. Neither exists where they are supposed to, so assuming they exist I think my hypothesis makes about as much sense as any.
It is understood from the Bible that hell is a real place which is most likely inside the earth where the fire burns continuously. Heaven is a little harder to pinpoint.
Heaven and hell are more states of being, then actual places, although, of course, they are places too; but not as we understand them here on earth. Primarily heaven is union with God, it is enjoying the Beatific Vision; to some extent, we are in heaven here on earth to the extent that we conform ourselves to God’s Will.
Hell is the state of being permanently alienated from God, it is a state that we build ourselves while alive on earth, to which we are permanently exiled when we die. It is more important to understand that state then worry about the place; mostly because we cannot completely access either place while we are alive in our body, and that most importantly, when we find out, we don’t want to be in the state alienated from God for all eternity: as union with God is what we were created for.
Is heaven or hell real?
Opinion The postulation there is a Heaven and/or Hell is a common motif in religious belief. These locations vary in nature from the ancient Greek afterlife of a rather dreary wandering around in gloom to the rollicking beer fest that Viking heroes enjoyed in preparation for Ragnarok.
The existence of a spiritual place or places in which the souls of the dead are treated in accordance with their behavior when alive (reward or punishment), is a tradition of mankind, which finds expression (in differing details) in various religions. It cannot be conclusively proven as long as we’re alive; and that’s the whole point: God tests us as to whether we will live in a way that demonstrates that we’re aware of His presence, even though His presence is not readily visible.
We hold it to be evident that an infinitely wise Creator, whose wisdom is vastly manifest (for example) in the wonders of our bodies, would not be so unwise as to neglect any and all unfinished business. If a tyrant “escapes judgment” by swallowing a painless poison, to our mind it is axiomatic that his tribulations have just begun. God is just (Deuteronomy 32:4).
In the metaphorical sense, indeed I also believe so. this questions is a warzone waiting to happen. i believe there is something greater but not heaven or hell. simply put we believed heaven was in the clouds until we could fly above them. then perhaps it was space until we traveled its expanse. so where is heaven? then we drilled to the deepest regions of earth to find more rock, where’s hell?….on that note check out “sounds of hell”
Google and interpret it as you like, its really cool or spooky. In either event science cant provide answers to existence but god can’t provide answers to his devout disciple who kill to purify the land.
Be a good person in heart and you don’t need a road map to heaven,

Are you going to heaven or hell?
Neither. I am realistic enough to know that heaven and hell simply do not exist. You arrive at a place in your spiritual sense after you die?
Heaven is a useful concept for those who fear their mortality, and perhaps for some hell is a useful substitute for conscience. But these concepts exist in the imagination only.
Answer For the Christian heaven and hell are not so much places as states of being.
Heaven is when you are united to God, which is the purpose for which every single one of us was created; and hell is existence where we have rejected God.
We are actually beginning to live in one or the other right here on earth, death really doesn’t hold that many surprises, it just removes the possibility of changing anymore. If we have been living for our fellow men, seeing God in them, denying ourselves, etc.,
then we are living in heaven before we die and death removes us from this “vale of tears” and we are happy and joyful for ever. We may have a firm hope or a pretty good idea which one we are going to end up in, but even though we begin to live in them here, we can never be sure, especially as everything depends on our last moments as we die. All we can do is live the best life that we can – with God’s help – and pray constantly for His Grace.
Do people go to hell or heaven?
It is a matter of belief and faith who goes to any heaven or hell, not a fact. Many people believe there is no kind of afterlife. People who are good in life. example: They do not steal , do not lie , do not hit , do not kill go to heaven.
People who are bad in life. example: They kill other… people, curse use bad words , are disrespectful to their parents, the steal, lie, hit people, are unfair in treating people, in a simple meaning they do bad things these people go to hell!! Most of the major religions have versions of heaven and hell.
Christians should also live their lives according to God’s laws which are the Ten Commandments. But the bible also says one does not get to heaven by good works. Jesus Christ is the only door that leads to paradise after we leave this world.
Will you go to heaven or hell?
It depends on whether you except Jesus Christ as your savior and repent your sins.
Do babies go to heaven or hell when they die?
They go to heaven because they are not at the age of accountably.
Answer The information contained in some scriptures implies that all nonbelievers are going to hell. If you are to believe the prejudice of some scriptures then you must believe that if a baby was born in a home where the false reli…gion is observed then it is obvious that he/she will go to hell. The scriptures that proclaimed this authority did not qualify age or gender. If death does not respect age or gender then hell will not.
This means that this God willfully places people in the homes of these false religions as some kind of sadistic game that only a vicious psychopathic murderer would play.
Answer No, they go to Limbo. The idea of Limbo stems from a strict understanding of Scripture, described above, that only baptized Christians can achieve Heaven. Because the idea of a loving God consigning innocent infants to eternal damnation is so repulsive, the Roman Catholic Church devised the doctrine of Limbo as a sort of compromise.
Unlike Purgatory, souls confined to Limbo will never achieve heavenly bliss but neither will they be punished in Hell. Thus the common use of “limbo” to refer to being caught or suspended in between two extremes.
When you die why do you go to hell or heaven?
Because God wants us to feel we have the power of eternal life. He doesn’t want us to just die and leave life forever, He wants us to live a second eternal life judged by your first life. Other contributors have said… You don’t, that is nothing more than a way of controlling people. If people thi…nk they are going to burn in a lake of fire for doing bad things.
Then they probably won’t do them and if they think they are going to heaven for doing good things (and following a religion’s rules) then they will follow them.
The idea that a God. . . .that supposedly loves you would send you to burn
FOR ALL ETERNITY for something like being lazy or not believing in him, etc… is just ridiculous.
Can you imagine being burned for even one whole minute…you would probably pass out from the pain, needless to say all eternity is just ridiculous. Well, you have to consider the possibility that going to heaven or hell is not based on your actions. Plus it depends on the religion you are thinking about. If you’re talking about Christianity, God DOES NOT want you to go to hell. He loves you. The problem is that when you live a sinful life and have not asked for forgiveness, it is impossible for you to enter the gates of heaven. Heaven is also a sinless territory. It’s not God’s decision whether you go to Heaven or Hell, it’s yours. Also I must inform you that this is a religion biased answer and I am a Christian. Thank you.
When you die do you go to heaven or hell?
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man can come to the Father but by me.” In other words confess your state of sinfulness – that we all share – and accept the atoning forgiveness, grace, and salvation offered by the only purely righteous man who has ever walked this earth (as bot…h a man as as God incarnate). Then, and only then, will you inherit eternal life and can share the presence of God in his heaven.
(Also, see or Google ‘Bible Gateway’) Answer It depends on who or what is the “YOU”. If the “YOU” is the body, then when we die the body will revert back to its mineral and chemical components and become foods & fertilizer for others and rise up no more.
This agrees with the Bible; Job 7:9 As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away: so he that goes down to the grave shall come up no more . Job 14:12 So man lies down, and rises not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep. Job.20:7 Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: But if the “YOU” is a Spirit, then it cannot die and may be reborn as other person. This is taught in the Bible:
If you are not a Christian do you go to heaven or hell?
Opinion The world’s religions offer differing answers to these questions. Some teach, not only, if you live a good life, you will go to heaven, but also, if you live a bad life, you will burn in a place of torment. Other religions teach that at death, people will pass on to the spirit realm to be with their ancestors. Still other religions teach that the dead go to an underworld to be judged and are then reincarnated, or reborn in another body.
Such religious teachings all share one basic idea-that some part of us survives the death of the physical body. According to almost every religion, past and present, we somehow live on forever with the ability to see, hear, and think. Yet, how can that be? Our senses, along with our thoughts, are all linked to the workings of our brain. At death, the brain stops working. Our memories, feelings, and senses do not continue to function independently in some mysterious way. They do not survive the destruction of our brain. Opinion Simply, when you die, you return to dust and you have the hope of living in a paradise earth if you obey God.
Opinion: The only religion that will take you to heaven is Islam.
After death will you go to heaven or hell?
It depends on how many sins you make. check the bible for more info John 3:18 “Whoever believes in Him (Jesus) is not condemned but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” All you need is Faith to go to heaven after… death, how many sins you have has NOTHING to do with it for ALL have sinned and fallen short of God’s Glory. That is why the Father sent His Son to die & make us Holy so that we can stand before God in Heaven and be just as righteous as Jesus Himself. Glory to God!
We can never be as righteous as Christ, but we are saved by Him. During His earthly ministry Jesus forgave and then said ‘You are forgiven, go and sin no more.’ We can not live sinful lives and expect a heavenly reward. Yes, only belief in Jesus Christ can one attain eternal life with Him, but you do have to strive to be a true follower by living by God’s law, which happens to be the 10 commandments.
When you are dead do you go to heaven or hell?
It all depends on whether you believe in God as your Savior or not. If you believe God sent his One and only Son, Jesus Christ to die for all of our sins on the cross and proclaim He is the Son of God then you will go to Heaven.
If you are one of these and you want to become a Christian a…nd ask God for forgiveness of your sins and ask Him to be your Savior and ask Him to come into your heart then you will go to Heaven. If you need more help you should try visiting a local Christian church or just pray to God. He will hear you wherever you are.
I think this is partly right and partly wrong. God says that the person who sins will die. Satan says that the person who sins will not die. All have sinned therefore all will die. No man has ascended into heaven, only Christ. A ‘soul’ is a combination of body and spirit Minus the spirit, which goes back to God at death, the body dies Humans are not immortal. The ‘soul’ that sinneth shall die.
The soul is the person. At the resurrection, those who believe what Christ has said, i.e., believe in Him, will be resurrected to eternal life. After 1000 years, the remainder will be resurrected to judgement No one is judged immediately at death. But will be judged at resurrection ‘Hell’ is a combination of words in Hebrew and Greek. Sheol, and hades, and lastly Gehenna, which is a real place in Israel, is a place where they used to burn rubbish and throw the bodies of criminals. Eternal worms….NO But a fire that consumes…Yes O, and I forgot to say, Sheol and Hades, both mean the same thing…’the grave’.
What are the requirements to go to heaven and not hell?
Okay, so I have a feeling that you probably don’t attend church very much, so I am going to give them to you straight from the Bible. I don’t like to think of them as requirements, because when I do it feels like more of a religion than a relationship with Jesus Christ.
We in the holiness church wor…ld believe that a person can be saved (the term is used to define a person redeemed or cleansed from all sin or unrighteousness) by three simple steps. If you are serious about this.
1. Admit that you are a sinner.
2. Believe on Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour and he can cleanse you from all sin.
3 Confess your sins to Him. John:16 “For God so loved the world He gave His one & only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not die but have eternal life.”
You need to have faith that God sent His Son to die so that we can stand before God in Heaven & Him NOT SEE any sin in us at all, only seeing us as fully Holy & Righteous as His Son! Thank You Father.
What will determine if you go to heaven or hell?
by the acts you do. A lot of people misunderstand the word of God, I believe it is best not to believe what others say unless they can show you where they got their info. So you need to read for yourself.
I learned that hadies is just the judgement plate where you go to be judged for your acts on ea…rth. That after you die you are in limbo on earth until God calls for his people. Read the book of Revelation’s. But be careful, it is symbolic in allot of ways. Research it not just in the bible but on-line and at the library and NEVER listen to someone who wants to tell you only one verse and give you what they think it means. The bible explains it self if you read it and allot of it’s history has even been proven.
For example, research on line about Noah’s ark. Did you know that it has been found?
The tribe that lives at the base of the mountain forbid it to be removed because it goes against their own religion. I myself do believe there is a higher power and there are many scriptures in the bible saying one day all our tears will be wiped away and there will be no more suffering. Please, just a little each day, just read for yourself. The book of genesis is the most boring but it even speaks of dinosaurs in it.
You just have to get past all of the this man was the father of who was the father of who was the father stuff. Good luck…God bless READ King James version of the bible, it is the closest to the original you can get.
Can you go to heaven from hell?
No you can’t go to heaven from hell. Once you are in hell you are stuck there.
Bernard Nathanson, the former abortionist turned top pro-life activist who is perhaps best known for his role in creating the pro-life video The Silent Scream, died at the age of 84 after a lengthy cancer battle on 02/21/2011, at 10:00 PM, as Posted by Catholic Citizens of Illinois. At one time Nathanson was deeply entrenched in the American pro-abortion movement, having co-founded the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) and overseen 75,000 abortions as director of an abortion clinic.
Nathanson’s high-profile conversion to the pro-life movement was sparked by the advent of the ultrasound machine in the early 1970s. He has related how he was moved to acknowledge the humanity of the unborn child after he watched an unborn baby recoil from a vacuum abortion device before being sucked from its mother’s womb. Nathanson titled the video of this incident The Silent Scream and began using it to spread the pro-life message.
The Lazarus Phenomenon – The Movie has a running time of 100 minutes, and includes some amazing computer generated graphics of Heaven and Hell. The movie is Cinema quality, and has already been screened in many public cinemas in many countries. The narrative is documentary in style, filmed on the actual locations of the events portrayed, with fantastic special effects, and amazing music.
The Lazarus Phenomenon – The Movie is riveting viewing for both non-Christians & Christians! The movie is an ideal tool to use to bring the unsaved to investigate eternity. The movie deals with Man’s continual search for life after death. Non-believers are also fascinated to have their question answered, “Is there life after death?”
The whole subject of life after death is looked at from both a Biblical and a truly scientific approach, with interviews with four medical doctors.
