There are lower realms in the spirit world, for everything must find its mark.
But no 'eternal damnation'. That was an invention of Orthodoxy.
Ultimately all souls will be redeemed, by themselves. By the Love and Grace of God in giving us 'second chances'.
That is where free will comes into it. Free will under Law i.e. sowing and reaping. That is to say, not reward or punishment as such, but consequence.

All this talk of religion, but it's how you live your life that is the all-important thing.
If you set out each day to do all the goodness and kindness that you can, and to do no harm to man or beast, then you are walking the highest path.
And when your time is up, if you can leave the earth a better place than you found it, then yours will have been a life well lived.
