By all means and purposes once you remove blind faith hell is a man made invention, there is absolutely zero proof for it, and it seems to have done religion no harm in spreading via indoctrination and an agenda of fear the world over, for centuries.
If you talk a bit with people, you'll find that most of them can't handle well with the fact that people that do wrong doings(depends on the perspective), sometimes get away from justice. The idea that an ultimate judgement will come for those people alliviates the installed anxiety that some crimes may go unpunished. This of course sells well amongst the more ignorant persons.
