Default If Jainism is correct and you go to hell based on your karma, ?

do you think you will go to hell or one of the heavens?

It is all just based on belief without evidence so we cannot honestly know which religion is right, but for this question lets assume Jainism is right.
Yes, reincarnation is also a belief in Jainism, but they also believe you can reincarnate into spiritual domains where they have about 5 or six levels.

IF Jainism were right, it's hell for all. Good thing Jesus came to rescue us.

The goal of Jainism is liberation of the soul from the negative effects of unenlightened thoughts, speech and action. Thus, ones karmic obstructions are cleared by right view, knowledge and actions. Jain teaching is based on the rejection of caste systems and the principle of reincarnation.

So I dint' think Heaven or Hell is in their belief system at all, let alone God.

My Karma?

I try to think good thoughts, I try to do the right things (even when no one is looking), I try to help others when I can.

I still don't know if that would be enough.

Every religion says the same thing..

You get hell or heaven depending on your deeds.

I believe its just a way of making people do the 'right thing' by giving the the hope of heaven which is supposed to be the ideal place to be.

I personally think you don't go anywhere, you die and that's it!

Well in this case then heaven will be kind of empty of souls

And hell will have a population problem
