Guess that's just part of playing in to peoples fear of the unknown though.For most people throughout history life itself has been hell.
I imagine in the midieval ages hell must have not been much a threat, as they probably couldn't imagine being worse off than they were at that point in time.
Now we have the luxuory of being able to fear whatever our imagination can conjure up that's worse than eating pizza, watching the football game, and taking a nap.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.
