∙ 11y agoThe Medieval Church played a far bigger part in Medieval England than the Church does today. All Medieval people believed that God, Heaven and Hell all existed. From the very earliest of ages, the people were taught that the only way they could get to Heaven was if the Roman Catholic Church let them. Everybody would have been terrified of Hell and the people would have been told of the sheer horrors awaiting for them in Hell in the weekly services they attended.
Actually not all medieval people believed in Heaven and Hell, but it was dangerous to say so. Some ancient Greeks and Romans thought that Earth was not the centre of the Universe, but they lacked the scientific knowledge and tools to support alternate beliefs.
