I would argue the purpose of prison is not to punish but to remove that person from society so they can't repeat the crime or commit future crimes of the same nature.
Those who can't control themselves enough to function within the boundaries of the law may find themselves locked away from society.
Hell was created as a fear to be used against those who didn't believe in a particular religion. It's an empty threat that threatens to send non existent souls to a non existent place in which their non existent soul will be tortured for the crime of not believing in that religion.
Seems kinda silly.
It would be like someone threatening to kill a ghost if I didn't give them all my money. And that was the only threat they made each and every week on the same Sunny Day.

Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result
