Suppose you are a devout Christian, and you die, and you go to heaven, and it's not what was advertised? It's more like hell. What would you think of your prior beliefs?

This is the flip side of a question link that was asked yesterday.

You’re a devout and believing Christian, and you get up to heaven – and it sucks. It isn’t what you were led to believe; it isn’t paradise, it’s a nasty place and a whole lot more like hell than it is heaven. You weren’t a bad person; maybe you were a great person.

But the wonderful place that was promised to you… isn’t. (Sort of like booking a 5 star hotel and getting a Motel 6).

What would that do to your belief? How would you feel about being misled all your life?
