If you're one of the downtrodden, the belief in heaven and hell exists can be a great comfort. You're a good person (even though you suffer now) and will go to heaven while your oppressors (who now lead the good life) will go to hell.

Yes, but most people know they aren't good, so they carry the burden of guilt plus terror of the afterlife.
