Well I don't believe in Jesus in any shape or form. If you or anyone else wants Jesus to be Adolf Hitler then you can. Satan is an Angel in my book and never can do anything but tempt!

I use Satan as a metaphor. I believe what the Jews call Satan. Which he is an Angel and cannot be evil. Because Angels have no freewill.
“Lucifer” (light-bearer)is a generic title referring to the morning star (Venus). As such, it has been used throughout history to refer to Satan, Christ, and others. With this in mind, Isaiah 14:12 starts out “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!”. Taken as a separate verse, this appears to refer to the battle of angels – however, the PASSAGE starts at Isaiah 12:4 “Thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon” and towards the end is Isaiah 14:22 “For I will rise up against them saith the Lord of hosts, and cut of from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, Saith the Lord.” Thus Lucifer in the Old Testament refers to some unnamed Babylonian king.

I don't want to derail this thread. The person named Lucifer is actually a named associated with a Babylon King.

I view Angels how a Jew will angels. Angels have no freewill and never will revolt against God.

But you do require proof for your argument to be logical. Without it's just an illogical assumption and therefore a waste of everyone's time. We already have a better more logical explanation. Your illogical what if assumes my logical what if is wrong when you haven't proven anything wrong with it.
So you don't need proof, but without it, you're just ranting illogically. What's the point?
