VERBATIM: A new poll from the Pew Research Center finds that 74% of Republicans believe there is both a heaven AND a hell and that people will go to one or the other when they die. By contrast, only 50% of Democrats believe these things. At the other end of the spectrum, 25% of Democrats do not believe in any kind of afterlife at all.
