I ask that you Endure me and my rather unconventional ideas...but Have you ever considered that maybe God was the 'Evil' One, and Satan was a type of modern day Prometheus.
My logic is this, the bible--the main source of info for believers, is claimed as "God's word", hence this is "HIS" side of the story. But we all know that to truly evaluate and judge a story we must hear BOTH sides of the story.
God frames the situation and 'claims' that Satan was rebellious, disobeyed, and was therefore expelled from heaven...
Maybe we should consider Satan's side, in heaven he was basically a slave, forced into servitude by a Tyrant known as God. Satan had no 'free-will', he had to obey god or be destroyed, tired of that pointless existence he decided to lead a revolt --similar to the American Revolution when they were being oppressed by the monarchy of Britain.
Maybe history should rewrite Satan as a hero, and God as a Oppressive Tyrant that demanded absolute slaves.
