Merge of information in Lucifer
The notion of Satan, or an evil force, is noted in many if not all of the major world religions.

== Lucifer ==
'''Lucifer''' literally "Son of the Morning" is mentioned in the [[Bible]] in the [[book of Isaiah]] (Isaiah 14:12). He is cast down from [[heaven]] to [[hell]] after making 5 pronouncements initiating a rebellion against [[God]] by believing that he was equal or superior to God and would take power for himself.
* I will ascend into heaven
* I will exalt my throne above the stars of God
* I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north
* I will ascend above the heights of the clouds
* I will be like the most High
Luficer is usually equated with [[satan]] in Christian tradition. And so, this gives more history of what caused satan's downfall. While satan would be more of the title, Lucifer would be the proper name.
