So if Lucifer was the "real one" as you say, how did he get beat and thrown out of heaven? Who is more powerful?

The whole bible is manipulated by people also there are a lot of translation errors made, which is a well known fact. Also there are OLDER religions than Christianity and Judaism, Hinduism for example is way older but a lot of people forget this or don't even think about this simple fact.
It is just a simple fact that everything in every religion refers back in some kind of way to one godlike creature which is infact Lucifer...

Athiest here, but speaking as if there were a god: The god of the most popular religions is said to be all-powerful. If this is so, then he has the power to erase satan from existence...but, god doesn't do this. God has the power to prevent satan from tempting and/or torturing humans on earth...but, he doesn't do this either.

Now let's discuss whether the easter bunny hides real chicken eggs or just chocolate and candy.
That has to do with free-will, you have a choice....

Ahh . . . Lucifer, the light bearer. He was an archangel who fell after rebelling against God, according to Christian myth . . .
I believe that Lucifer is not God, but an agent of false enlightenment. After all, he and his servants...

Have you read the story of Job? According to it, satan and god converse with each other, and can even place wagers on our lives. If he kicked satan out of heaven, I wonder how he gets back in to converse with god?

Our sources are within? What the hell do you mean by that?

Don't believe in religion, know your sources which is within.

So the rest of your post wasn't also speculation? Can I have sources where you got your info that states that the Lord and the Creator aren't the same god? Or was it just as you stated, your own simple logic?

Samuel 22:14 — "Yahweh thundered from heaven, the Most High [Elyon] uttered His voice.
I'm not seeing the part where there are two different gods. It looks to me that the Most High, Yahweh, uttered his voice and it thundered from heaven.
