first and most important I'm no theologian.
What little I've read in the bible if it is true and not stepped on and homogenized by kings and rulers of the world ( king james version)
ie women the vessel in which life is brought to this world was/has been all but not mentioned at all. Every prophet,disciple, martyr. and chosen had women and mothers still so little is mentioned.
lets assume that the devil did indeed use to be one of gods favorites, and this god is/claimed to be a most forgiving God.
Imagine the responsibility given to one who is assigned to rule in hell, no family contact, strict rules, no praise or acknowledgment for a job well done.
Probably the most impressive thing is he only gets the worst of gods creations... yet he performs and maintains this spiritual jail /limbo to such high standards, even though no one has ever seen this place its reputation is known the world over second only to heaven. He has been assign/sent to manage/control place knowing the responsibility nad sacrifices required of him still he takes the thankless job and excels at it.
consider this... its a thankless shitty job, but someone has to do it and do it correctly no room for error here.
If you was in charge and needed a job such as this performed, who would you assign it to...
I offer this thought, the devil is one of gods most trusted deities. Sure a little power hungry, on the wild side and arrogant but with the kind of job he was assigned these character trait /are/was not only needed but required to perform the tasks ask of him.
