    How about if hell is actually heaven? It's where the party, music, sexy people and drugs are. Heaven is controlled by the right-wing and it's much like earth except it never ends and it's bigger. It's an infinity of concrete, SUVs, McMansions, and golf courses.

      I remember a short story about heaven and hell where hell was a luxurious looking gated community filled with mansions while heaven was a free pasture.

        If there's an afterlife - I really want to go to hell. Thousands of years of human garbage endlessly proclaiming how wonderful and perfect heaven is - gives me serious doubts.

          Fixed my error. Hell was gated community, heaven was pasture with the idea that the popular idea of heaven is the illusion of wealth and decadence when that's really empty, especially in the afterlife.

          I was never a fan of the popular idea heaven because it seemed so spiteful. The people you don't like suffer forever and you get to gloat with god. I had existential dread about someone I care about not making it to heaven and being unable to tell if god replaced them with a clone to keep me content and ignorant of their suffering.

      Heaven is were those who wished to see happiness for their fellow human beings, put in the effort, and made sure what they were doing was actually good will go after they die, in my opinion.
