Questions
So Hi,
My roomate and I were talking about Lucifer and God.
I thought that because Lucifer was banished for insighting change, conciousness, and moral responsibility in humans he may not be the evil force that he is depicted to be.
This thought crossed my mind was because of season 4 of Angel. In Angel season 4 Jasmine does not perform evil acts and does not allow anyone else to perform evil acts. All Jasmine allows anyone to do is love her and each other while contributing to the greater cause of fighting demons. Angel defeats Jasmine because he believes that free will and responsibility were more important than world peace.
Just as God wished us not to be plagued with such unpleasent things as hate, free will, conciousness, or evil. Lucifer trusted the human race to deal with the choice to think evil thoughts and do evil deeds and along with that the responsibility for those deeds. Lucifer was banished to hell for this wish where he stays in eternal torment.
So if you were a soul in some metaphysical place which would you choose, God's world with only goodness and love and therefore no free will, or our world now with Lucifer's wish fulfilled?
Would you prefer to live here, as you are, whether or not you care about being redeemed in the eyes of God?
I would rather be here and have control over my own destiny, I don't need redemption.
