No. The first people to believe in Hell as a place of punishment were the Zoroastrians.

The existence of hell is a matter of belief and interpretation. Some people believe in the concept of hell as a place of punishment in the afterlife, while others do not believe in its existence.
The concept of hell first appeared in the Bible in the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel, which was written around the 2nd century BCE.
Southern Baptists believe in the concept of heaven and hell. They believe that those who accept Jesus Christ as their savior will go to heaven after death, while those who do not will go to hell. They also believe in the resurrection of the dead and the final judgment by God.
They do, but not in the same concept as other Christian churches. Christian Scientists believe that heaven and hell are just a state of mind and not actual places such as the bible teaches.
Most of the religion like Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam and even the Egyptians all believed in life after death and with the concept of Heaven and Hell
The Bible describes hell as a place of eternal separation from God and suffering for those who reject Him. It warns of the consequences of going to hell, which include torment and punishment for those who do not believe in Jesus Christ as their savior.
A:The concept of hell as a place of punishment first appears in the Zoroastrian religion of the ancient Persians. This appears to have been passed on to the Jews during the Babylonian Exile, then from the Jews to the Christians and then Islam. In the meantime, Judaism moved on and abandoned the concept, so that most Jews no longer believe in a hell where the unrighteous are punished for their sins.
Of course. Many people do good deeds and help their fellow man even if they don't believe in the Heaven/Hell concept. Helping others benefits the giver as well as the receiver.
An agnostic is unlikely to believe in hell. An atheist will definitely not believe in hell because belief in hell is as irrational as belief in deities and supernatural beings.
Hell is not mentioned in the Old Testament; the concept first arises in the New Testament and contemporary Rabbinical writings. The Old Testament generally refers to "Sheol" which appears to be much more similar to the Greek Underworld than the current concept of Hell.
Hell is a concept in the Christian and Islamic religions, but not in Judaism. For Christians and Muslims, the unsaved do burn in hell forever. Jews believe that they merely lose out from going to heaven. Another point of view is that neither heaven nor hell is real. Hell is therefore not an eternal place and there is no punishment in the afterlife.
