There is no hell.
There is, actually: life itself. But it all depends on one's perspective. A cynical man will, in the end, assume life is a pointless exercise in gluttony, stupidity and abject failure. An optimist will probably adopt Fatalism, holding that everything happens for a reason and that a better "life" awaits in the thereafter.
Then you have someone like me. If you ask me, "Is the glass half empty, or half full?", I say, "Herp derp! BOTH." Half empty and half full aren't mutually exclusive.
That is the great thing about Eastern philosophies and religions, particularly Buddhism. Those trains of thought recognize the cyclical and duality inherent to reality, and/or anything potentially beyond.
But purely speaking as a man raised as a Christian -- and I don't think that should be the
dirty word with which it is so often regarded these days, when areligiosity is the "in thing" -- it is important to remember that my beliefs are something I hold dear
in spite of all evidence to the contrary.
Put another way, I know it's completely illogical to believe in a Supreme Being when I've no evidence of His existence. I'm also a firm believer in the idea that said Being initiated the Big Bang, then let the chips fall where they may. Did "He" intervene at times in human history?
I would say the Creator lead us toward certain figures; e.g., Moses, Jesus and Mohammed. But that is a whole other ball of wax
