Hell\heaven

Ok Im watching this tv show and its talking about religon and it said the bodahist relgion they don't bealive in god but karma so my question is will they go to heaven or hell bc they bealive karma is god and not 1 single god but ones own karma will punish or reward them...

Buddhism? They do not believe in Heaven and Hell, they believe in living a good life, and eventually going to Nirvana.

A Christian would believe, that unless you accept Jesus (so, a Buddhist would not accept Jesus), you go to Hell no matter how great of a person you've been.

Everyone has their own god that they believe in. Just because someone doesn't believe in the Christian interpretation of God does not mean they will go to hell.

Don't Buddhists also believe in reincarnation? Or am I thinking of something else?

Neither. Heaven and hell don't exist.

A christian will say that they will go to hell

but Buddahist doesn't beleive in either, and will not go to either. They keep being reincarnated until they reach nirvana

Well, forgive me if I'm confusing Buddhism and Hinduism, I know Hinduism includes riencarnation, and I believe Buddhism does, too. Once your soul reaches all of it's karmic goals, then you go to Nirvana.

Yall aint getting what im asking... just for argument sakes everyone will go to either will they go to hell bc they bealive that one owns person is reponible for punishment and rewarding in the afterlife and not that god will... Im not trying to disrepect any belifs just wondering

Well, the fact that you must beleive in Heaven or Hell in order to answer that question kind of makes it a silly debate, IMO.

But. If you believe in Heaven and Hell, and Jesus... you believe that everyone who does not goes to hell. Up to and including Buddhists.

Hinduism is reincarnation.

You either go in the ground in a box, or on a mantle in a box. That's about it.

I like these religions. It seems a lot more peaceful than most and is based off of how good of a person you are. Not by predetermined sins that you must repent for. However, I know very little hard details of Buddhism and I could be wrong.

Hypothetically: if a Christian god ruled the universe and heaven and hell were real places, then anyone who rejects "God" goes to hell.

Im NOT saying u have to beleive in heaven or hell im just curious where different relgions play in this...

Absolutely. I have a better understanding of Hinduism than Buddhism...

But I believe they're similar in that how you act in this life determines your next life. So, if you start at the bottom of the Caste system in Hinduism, your soul begins in a poor station in life, because you must earn the "better" life. If you go through your life as a good person, the next time you're riencarnated, you have a better life. If you don't act well in that life, you go back down the Caste, and when you live well, you continue to move up.

I like it.

Though, Buddhism is more about simplicity.
