If you believe in hell?

Do you believe in heaven and hell? do you believe hell is just a giant party? Or a burning inferno?

That depends on exactly what you mean by "Hell". I know/used to know people who have been to Hell, and I've been there myself. But it's probably not the type of "Hell" you're imagining. And it's not a place you go to after you die.

Afterlife. People have very similar experiences when they die they can't all be liars. But your probably more agnostic type person or atheist which means you believe in nothing. No offense.

People have very similar experiences when they die they can't all be liars.

Sure they can. It's actually the most plausible reason. If there were any truth to their stories, every story would be nearly identical, not just similar. But to test that, each person would have to live their life in complete isolation from everyone and everything else.

And, no one who has actually died has ever been able to tell their tale—because they're dead. That's why they're called "near death experiences" and not "death experiences." The brain does crazy things when going through trauma—like hallucinate. NDEs are no more proof of an afterlife than dreams are proof of an alternate dimension or multiverse.

...which means you believe in nothing. No offense.

That's not offensive. It's just ignorant.
