When we die we will alll go to heaven. Roman Catholics who unite themselves with Jesus through His body and Blood will meet Jesus and receive what Saint Paul promised. ''eyes have mot seen not ears heart not has it entered into the hearts of men what Jesus has prepared for those who loved Him.
At the last day, Jesus will divide the people into two groups, the sheep and the goats.
To the sheep he will say enter heaven because you clother, feed, visited the lonely and captive, etc…
To the goats He will say go to everlasting hell, you didn’t do these things for me or the least of your brothers.
What I’m tryingh to say is that we make our own heaven and hell right here on earth,
how we live mow we will live in heaven. The joys of heaven, the honor and glory to God, our service to the Blessed Trinity in heaven may be hell to those who don’t want to understand or love God. (all those out of the catholic faith)
Just my opinion, my meditations

Buddhism: the purpose of life is to “wake up” from the nightmare of lust, hatred, and ‘fuzzy thinking’, into the reality of compassion, wisdom, and insight. It’s best to wake up as soon as possible, because you can’t predict where you will take birth after the death of your current body-and-mind.

Hinduism: the purpose of life is to realize one’s relationship, communion, or union, with the One Ultimate Truth (called Vishnu, or Brahman, or Siva, or many other Holy Names). It’s best to realize this relationship, communion, or union as soon as possible, because there’s no telling when you’ll have it as easy as you have it now, in your current life.
