No evidence that there isn't a heaven or hell? How about the fact that nobody has ever been there? There's no compelling evidence that if you put all the cell phones in the world by eachother they'd turn into a monster, so do you believe in that? It's no different than believing heaven or hell other than the fact that there aren't millions of people brainwashed to believe it.
And how does believing that an all powerful being, (or "creature" or whatever you want to call god) who nobody can see, created people make more sense than... Well anything? Have you ever seen something that could create people using his magical powers? Maybe on a fairy tale, which is exactly what religions are.
And it's not about believing what you want to believe, it's what you actually think. Sure, I'd love to believe that when I die I can go to some huge place where all the other dead people are and meet Owen Hart, but it's about 100 times more believable that when I die, that's it, I'm dead.
