A theory on heaven and hell:
Heaven and hell exist in the mind and hearts of men. Submerged in the spiritual substance that our bodies host through its natural cycle until such a time as the body fails and our energy is released into the incorporeal. In that respect the minds thoughts and the existence of thought within our being is not limited to the confines of our mind, thus the ability to create unique things. We create hell in our mind through our inability to deal with our shortcomings and our natural imperfections as human beings. Heaven exist in enlighten thought and acceptance of positive and negative energy’s. If we are to believe the stereotype about heaven being peace and love and hell being hate and chaos then it is fair to say that one that achieves happiness through balance and right conduct, as the term right is understood by them, is in a heavenly state where as someone that is constantly unhappy and whose life is in a state of chaos may be considered to be going through hell. With the understanding that the energy that we perceive through the analysis of thoughts and feelings exist within us but is not limited to our mortal frame then perhaps heaven and hell are all around us and we simply experience it in its entirety when we don’t have a mortal chain to hold onto. At the point of death the way we lived dictates the way we think and feel and would determine the reality our concourse essence exists in after we lose our flesh.

Remember the old saying that there is a small grain of truth in stories or myths!
Many "religions" believe in heaven and hell in many forms.
Without going into a full college course on the Biblical basis for heaven and hell,

Jesus records the truth of both places when he taught his disciples:

"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory.
All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd
separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance,
the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world" "“Then he will say to those on his left,
‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."
"Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
Matthew 25:31-34, 41, 46 NIV


John through his visions about history future records humanity's end this way:

"Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence,
and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne,
and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life.
The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books.
The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them,
and each person was judged according to what he had done.
Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire.
The lake of fire is the second death.
If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life,
he was thrown into the lake of fire." Rev 20:11-15 NIV

The main question that is asked is which book would you like to be judged by?

The books of your errors, sin, and vanity

or

The book of life

for one to ask to be judged by the book of life one must know that his/her name is
written in it!

Romans 10:9 NIV
"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord,"
and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."

So your evidence of a heaven and hell comes from an assortment of tales finally recorded in the Bronze and Iron ages, compiled into a book the Middle ages, and then translated from Latin and Greek in the Early modern era, all to the exclusion of the otherwise documented 2900 known deities in all of human existence?

Heaven and hell is entirely what we make it out to be here on earth.

Right. Hell is coming here to the Earth to new reincarnations, the circle of sansara. Heaven means to leave this material world to the spiritual one of God after we acquire enough of Love here. So to say, to get a multipass to the World of God.

“Only the human who looks at the world through a prism of love can understand divine presence. And to understand what paradise is… Well, for you to have a slight notion of it… If you choose the happiest moment in your life when your true love comes, when your life storms with waves of happiness and all-embracing joy, all these sensations will be equivalent to a small divine droplet of love scattered on you. But when a human enters nirvana, paradise, that moment when the soul joins God, figuratively speaking, is the same as if a human swims like a dolphin in the ocean of this infinite divine love. It is impossible to describe with words the fullness of these sensations, just as it is impossible to imagine it in full scope. Unfortunately, the human mind is limited, but in this limitation lies its beauty. Here, in a limited mind, an endless love should be developed.”
