Heaven is a better place than hell. In heaven the streets are painted with gold, most of the challenges hat faced us during out earthly lives are no longer there.
No heaven is better.
We have no evidence that heaven and hell even exist, so we can not say that one is better than the other, apart from the belief that heaven is a place of blissful reward and hell is a place of eternal damnation. In the absence of this evidence, I would call it a draw. Two non-existent places are equally good or bad.
Satan chooses to reign in Hell rather than serve in Heaven because he believes that it is better to rule in a place of his own making than to serve under the authority of God in Heaven. He values his own freedom and autonomy above all else, even if it means being separated from God.
Satan says "To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell: Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven".
Satan was once an angle. He though he was better than God, and wanted to take Gods place on the throne of heaven. God instantly kick him out of heaven and into hell. The Bible tells a better story than I did.
No hell is a million times worse just check out this website..http://www.freecdtracts.com/testimony/revelation_of_hell_by_7_youths.htm Hell is by definition the ulitimate horrible place to be, whereas heaven is by definition the ultimate utopia. Whatever words you choose to call these places, the first can never be better than the second. It defies logic.
The quote "It is better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heaven" is from John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost," where it is spoken by the character Lucifer. Lucifer makes this statement after being banished from Heaven following his rebellion against God.
