Natural gas heaters not only put out a better quality of heat, but when you REALLY need heat when the freak ice storm takes the electricity out and it's going to be in the 20s for days, natural gas is going to be there to keep your balls warm. That heat pump won't


So when your electricity goes out, what powers your thermostat, provides the power for your blower motor, etc? Gas or no gas, no electricity means your heat source isn’t going to keep you warm.

True, but the blower of a gas furnace can be powered with a very small generator, I run mine off a Honda EU2000, you cant do that with a heat pump or other type of electric heat.
