I am pretty sure yes.

Being not alive = Peacefulness = Heaven

Being alive is hell even for the most luckiest person on earth , everybody has problem even the rich and famous have problems and some commit suicide.

Survival of the fittest, crime , war, rape , murder, torture. Wow we are in hell but for a short sentence, that's the only good news.

No.

Earth is a horrible place but if it was hell, everyone on it would suffer.

Many people have never suffered once in their life though.

Many people live and have lived happy lives.

Many Abusers, Killers, and Rapists get away with the things that they do with a slap on the wrist, compared to what they would actually deserve for their crimes.

So if hell is=everyone suffers, then no, earth isn't hell. "Just" a really, really, horrible place.

I feel at time Earth could feel like hell but if it were I feel everyone would suffer as magician said. Some people like a lot of us here suffer and it's truly unfair to see people live so carelessly and free almost like they take it for granted.

There are good people and I know people are happy but I myself don't see a reason to live a full life of just pain.

The world is a natural hell. No god made it. You don't deserve it. It is a torture all the same.

Earth is hell. You dont have no free will all its about is school, college, university and work for the rest of your life, shakle yourself to a mortgage. Go and destroy the world as escapism through travel and holidaying. You have to pay pay pay for everything.

It's a place where suffering is unavoidable and people are always struggling with psychological, physical and/or financial problems.

It's a place where people are suffering from: poverty, wars, diseases, lack of basic needs, infrastructure, health and education, human rights abuses and exploration.

It's a place where greed, crime, corruption, abuse of power and other problems are widespread in many parts of the world.

It's a place where we constantly have to deal with bad people and bad actions that impact us negatively.

It's a place where things are unstable and unpredictable, which means that they can change drastically in a short period of time. A loved one may die, you may lose your job and your life may turn much worse in a matter of just a few months.

It's a place where we have to work for decades and constantly have to worry about money and bills.

It's a place where we have to deal with problems such as racism, sexism, LGBTphobia, social inequality.

It's a place where good people may have bad lives whereas bad people may have good lives, which would further the notion of injustice.

Born and your countdown to non existence starts ticking.
To me this is a solid reason earth is hell.

Everyone does suffer, just to a different degree. And all the achieved hopes and dreams don't seem to bring happiness, just different problems.

A place where a mass of beings can be ended by the elements and is otherwise sustained by life forms consuming each other, how can it not be hell? And disgusting one at that.

Hell does not exist, it is part of the demagoguery invented by religions to manipulate the masses. The fact that the planet is the way it is is solely the fault of humans and their corruption, not the fault of nature.

Some say that nature is not evil because it has no ability to comprehend morality. On the other hand nature brings death and destruction to humans in many forms like natural disasters. Because of that one could consider nature as evil. I personally don't believe that there's a need for intent to be evil. So yes I guess I agree with you. Natural law dictates that we are born to die and be eaten and that is something I consider evil.

When toddlers saw something they wanted, they immediately stole it from another toddler. They were selfish, although no one taught them to be that way. Often, when a toddler was stolen from, they hit the other toddler who stole from them. I guarantee you, no one taught that toddler to hit and hurt someone.

Humans, I believe, are born selfish, unkind, and uncaring.

Kindness is learned. And, to be kind, you must fight against human nature.

And humans are not part of Nature? What about suffering that is not human caused, like food webs?

Existence is "hell" regardless of location, or the individual organism experiencing it.

This existence undeniably is so hellish and I find it tragic how there isn't just nothingness instead, only nothingness is acceptable, the existence of life in the first place was the most cruel, horrific mistake, it's truly repulsive how existence has caused sentient beings to be tormented so unnecessarily all throughout history, this world filled with endless potential for suffering could never be desirable to exist in to me.

And it's even worse how despite this hellish reality humans continue to create more harm by forcing life here and banning peaceful suicide method options. The reality is that existence is nothing more than an unnecessary harm and it's a terrible crime forcing life into this dangeous world filled with endless risks where all that's inevitable for humans is even more suffering, loss and decay.

I love the quote, "Earth is hell, and humans are it's imps." I don't believe in heaven or hell, but this must be some kind of "off" plane of existence. I've always held a theory that the human is a "knockoff" of some other species. A species more intelligent, more humane, and superior in every way to the human. As if the creator of the human race is jealous of the other creator for making such a beautiful being and putting them into a beautiful existence that it went and created a total bastardization of that creation. Think about it. Things that are genuinely beautiful and good are mocked by the human. The human innately chooses bad and detrimental things in its existence.

I don't know. It's just a theory.

I think when people talk about heaven and hell, is how you choose ur life. Life can be hell, in my experience it is and the idea of not existing is heaven. Just like people say the ends justify the means. So if you live a life of hell then death will be heaven.

if you think about it, yes. You are never guaranteed to be happy but you are absolutely guaranteed to suffer. From birth you were suffering and till death you will too, happiness is just a state more than anything else.

In one of his poems, Jim Morrison wrote, "Could any hell be worse than what is real and now?" And he was a huge hedonist.

Damn I mean if you think about it that way, you're right, death is the only escape and Earth is well, quite literally hell, makes you think doesn't it.
