You want a real answer? The only meaningful choice to be made is whether or not to believe in God. Most people believe in God. Believing in God does not guarantee you're going to Heaven, but at least you'll be in the drawing, so to speak. And Hell will be much worse for someone who doesn't believe in God, than someone who does believe in God.

In other words, don't ask any questions. Just believe what you have been told, and everything will be OK. If you ask too many awkward questions, then we will have to give you increasingly nonsensical answers which we can't adequately explain, and we will ultimately have to make up a bunch of evasive not even answers at all non-answerish shit and then we are all going to feel pretty foolish going round and round in circles until you walk away very unsatisfied and we walk away frustrated. So be a good boy, cut it out, do as you're told, and all will be well.
