In heaven, you spend your whole entire afterlife worshipping god with your other Christian members, heaven has no sins, which means you will lose most of your personality. You do anything wrong just to piss your god off, you get kicked out and right down to hell. Everyone is a drone in heaven. You are to worship Jesus and God, no one else but them, not your wife, parents or children.
Sure, In hell it's eternal suffering, but hey, at least you get to keep your personality and you don't have to worry about breaking the simplest rule, because you're already in Hell.
And plus, in an atheist point of view, why would the devil punish us when we are the one who deny god, and the devil tried to overthrow god, so you never know what he might think about us,
Anyway, doesn't heaven sound like a prison?
The Heaven a lot of people are familiar with is according to the bible a temporary place, which will be replaced by the New Earth when Jesus Christ returns. The New Earth is supposed to be a re-creation of the Garden of Eden, where those who will be judged favourably by god might possibly spend forever as his willing slaves.
