Heaven and Hell are the adult versions of Santa's naughty and nice list. Parents know that Santa Clause does not actually exist, but they use the naughty and nice list to motivate naive and gullible children into doing what they want them to. In this way, parents are very much like the keepers of the faith, or the highest ranking religious leaders.
