Poll Without the fear of eternal damnation, would there be much less religious people today? (32 votes)
I think a lot of followers of religions do so out of fear of damnation. Most people would prefer to drink alcohol, have their prematital sex, play games on Sundays instead of going to church or mosque, read comics instead of the Bible or the Quran if they knew they won't be penalised for it. They would not take "sin" seriously and would not spend a majority of their lives worshipping a God and just do anything lawful that they enjoy if no God was going to poop the party by threatening to send them to hell.
