I'm a christian but am curious when it comes to how are things in heaven. I just wonder about the fallen angels being cast out of heaven. Isn't heaven suppose to be a perfect place? I think that it's so hard to get along with some people here on earth and how are we going to get along with these same people in heaven? Will there be different levels to heaven according to how we behave on earth? Do other people have such thoughts and wonder?

Satan was cast out of heaven because he chose to try and over throw God. He was filled with pride, and wanted to be God.
The reason he was able to act this way is because angels, just like humans have a free will. Santan rebelled and took 1/4 of the angels with him.
There are different ranks in heaven, based on the crowns you have stored up.
Heaven will be perfect for us, because we are god children, and not angels who were created to serve us.

That is a church teaching and not a Biblical teaching. In Isaiah 14 it is talking about the King of Babylon who was King Nebuchadnezzar at that time. It is the king, that God sent a prophet to tell, that was about to fall. the battle in heaven where God throws Satan and the angels out is not found until the book of revelation which is yet to come. read the book of Job and see that Satan still has a place in Heaven and is welcome there, he bounces back and forth between the Earth and Heaven. The apostles referred to Satan as the accuser of the brethren still showing that Satan goes to Heaven and discusses us with God himself. Satan was created evil, Is 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."

I think everyone wonders about heaven and how it will be,satan was cast out because he was jealous of God,he wanted control and we know that God is in total control,satan took his angels to fight with God and His angels for control and satan and his angels were cast out the devil is still jealous of God and that is why he trys to cause Gods elect to sin,heaven is a perfect place we will no longer have to deal with the devil,there will be no contention in heaven,we will never know for sure here but His ways are higher than our ways and we know that even here on earth we are the head and not the tail and God knows we wonder about these things that builds our faith to believe without seeing

Heaven is a perfect and a beautiful place for the righteous.God cast out Lucifer (satan) because of pride.He wants to over pass God.Believing and accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour,God will give you the right to be His children(family of God).There are so many tribulations and trials here on earth but take courage and stand firm in your faith.

OK you see in the story book called the Bible, the character God is a self righteous, spoil brat, the character Satan challenged God, of course God threw a temper tantrum and kicked Satan out of his play pen, Satan was just glad to be rid of the spoiled child....it gets annoying being around some one who has to be constantly praised and if you dont he throws a baby fit.....
When your physical body dies you can create a self imposed 'heaven' to live in, but why would you do that when there is so much more out there?

The lords prayer. "The kingdom come on earth also in heaven."
The first thing Jesus did when he took over as king in heaven is to through Satan and his angels out of heaven.
Rev. 12:7-12
War broke out in heaven..the dragon and its angels battled but it did not prevail neither was a place found for them any longer in heaven. So down the great dragon was hurled the original serpent the one called Devil and Satan who is misleading the entire inhabited earth he was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down with him....On this account be glad you heavens and you who reside in them..Woe for the earth and for the sea because the devil has come down to you having great anger knowing he has a short period of time
One day we will also get to live on earth with true peace with out Satan and his demons roaming around.
Ps. 37:9,11 Those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth...The meek ones themselves will possess the earth and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace...

I don't know but I suspect the Christian heaven must be some kind of dystopia where everyone is required to be joyful and praise the lord for eternity. Dissent will not be tolerated.

Silly, delusional Christians. :)
Don't you know there is no such thing as a heaven (closest thing would be an orgasm), a hell (bumping into your ex on the street), a Satan (my ex), or a God (a rapist).
