Interesting that you mention Lucifer. When Smith put in the Book of Mormon the passage supposedly quoted from Isaiah of 600BC, Smith included the Latin name, Lucifer, though Latin had not even been invented in 600BC. Proving of course that Smith was a liar and conman, lifting passages from the King James Bible and claiming they were from 600BC texts. The name Lucifer didn't show up in Isaiah until the 2nd Century, in Jerome's translation, possibly from the Hebrew, but more likely from the Septuagint.

Yep, but Lucifer is the name everyone understands at this point.

How anyone would want to be in the same league as Lucifer by thinking they can be god and even the same as god at some point is beyond me. Just that point alone should scare anyone from ever thinking that being a Mormon is good. It’s just plain horrifying if you ask me.
