Heaven, from what we can speculate, seems to be a system that some would call a tyranny as no one was allowed to question anything or ask for change in leadership or policies.
Was Satan and the third of angels who rejected tyranny wrong to demand equal rights, and if so, are all people who demand equal rights on earth also doing something satanic?
Is this why most religions are reluctant to give women and gays equality? Do Christians and Muslims think equality to be evil and satanic?
Do religious people think that their Gods frown on the notions of equality of all people and is that why believers deny women and gays equality?

No argument on reality.
This O.P. is not speaking to reality but to the myth as
understood by Christians.
What you are expressing, Gnostics have always believed.
Jesus said, "If those who attract you say, 'See, the Kingdom is
in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they
say to you, 'It is under the earth,' then the fish of the sea will
precede you. Rather, the Kingdom of God is inside of you, and it is
outside of you. [Those who] become acquainted with [themselves]
will find it; [and when you] become acquainted with yourselves, [you
will understand that] it is you who are the sons of the living
Father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty
and it is you who are that poverty."

Yes!
"Nevertheless, even though you chant and believe in Myoho-renge-kyo, if you think the Law is outside yourself, you are embracing not the Mystic Law but an inferior teaching."

Come to think of it that may be the first death.
As far as what the Father was talking about in the second Death I think we'll all find out soon enough.
I don't even remember what reason was given for Satan's beef from God. Wasn't it something like..God told the angels to love humans more then God, and Satan didn't like that? Or was it Satan was jealous of the attention God showed humanity?
Also this somewhat ties into my recent thread, if God truly knows everything, doesn't that mean when he created the angels he knew one of them would turn into Satan?
