Yes perhaps. This is what the book of Enoch tells us. However, evil is not about following someone. It is about being the leader. It doesn't hurt for someone telling you that you can be above God but disobediance is our choice and not Satan's.I never said Satan gave them new information, I said that it is possible he had influenced them in a way to look at their knowledge the same way he did his.

Well, take yourself as example. For the purpose of an analogy, the law will do as "God", and you could be "creation". If you were created by a perfect law, what would stop you from breaking it? And if all your actions were measured against the law, what would make you "good" or "bad"?It still gets my that someone (like a god of some type) would create evil, then expect his creations (us) to live in an evil world and worship Gad and do good. It doesn't efully make sense.

I don't believe God would have created Satan if he knew he would fall. I don't believe that God would have made Saul King if he had known that Saul wouldn't obey him.
