Very well said. The problem is, Mormon doctrine teaches that angels are just resurrected human beings, not different creatures; so they are just like us in many ways.

Therefore, Lucifer’s ‘sin’ was not that he wanted to become God (or have God’s power) because he could have earned that by becoming mortal and living the LDS gospel, but to the Mormons, Lucifer’s sin was that when Lucifer and Jesus both presented theirs ‘gospels’ to God the father and He had to decide which one was going to be the Savior (Jesus or Lucifer), Jesus wanted to give us ‘free agency’ but Lucifer’s ‘gospel’ wanted to force everyone to live it.

And no I’m not kidding (see tagline).

I’ve never met a Mormon I didn’t like. They are a very sweet and kind people. Just terribly misled. Thanks for your insight. God bless.
