Personally, I believe hell was designed to make good God-fearing Christians be good and go to Church. But that's my humble opinion. I think Bart Simpson made a good point when his Sunday school teacher was describing hell to her class:
Miss Allbright: Hell is a terrible place. Maggots are your sheet, worms your blanket, there's a lake of fire burning with sulfur. You'll be tormented day and night for ever and ever. As a matter of fact, if you actually saw hell, you'd be so frightened, you would die.
Bart: [raises his hand] Oh, Miss Allbright.
M.A.: Yes, Bart.
Bart: Wouldn't you eventually get used to it, like in a hot tub?
