After talking to Sister about how Sir LaVey, the author of the Satanic bible, was indeed a good man, I had a revelation.
Lucifer means bringer of light, yet he is dubbed prince of darkness. Lucifer was his title AFTER the fall, before he was Samael, so Lucifer does not relate to his once angelic status.
God wanted Adam and Eve to 'keep in the dark' so to speak, about a lot of things. Lucifer (or another demon) 'enlightened them' and then they could see the truth.
So Lucifer brings truth and sometimes unhappiness (the wisest are the most depressed) while God brings ingnorance but often bliss. So... Lucifer would be the giver of truth... so would Hell then be like living just as we are now? In a world of facts and such? And Heaven then would be full of ignorant, happy people.
Hmm, then one friend of mine mentioned that if Lucifer is the prince of darkness then who is the king? there must have been someone who would have caused Samael to defect in the first place, for all angels were made to serve God. Unless, God himself instructed Samael and gave Lucifer because of his wisdom, not in an act of condemning him.
I will look more into this I think.
