It Ain't Necessarily So

Things that you're liable
To read in that Bible
It ain't necessarily so

Did Lucifer get cast out of heaven?

The Old Testament of the Bible does not include any tale of Lucifer being cast out of heaven by God. Revelations 12 in the New Testament includes a mention of the story of the War in Heaven, but I would like to suggest that Lucifer cast himself out of heaven because he came to close to an absolute, i.e. God. There appears to be two portions of our universe: an orderly portion, e.g. heaven, and a chaotic portion, e.g. h- e- double hockey sticks. 

Our portion, which is NOT heaven, is governed by Entropy. The Second Law of Thermodynamics says that the Entropy of the Universe is increasing and that any action which reduces energy will be accompanied by an equal increase in entropy. The ultimate fate of our universe is when all energy is in its lowest state and every amount above that minimum has been converted to entropy. A trickle of water begins as orderly. If it exceeds the capacity of the stream bed, then it may become white water rapids, but eventually that stream flows into a large body of water (i.e. a lake) where it becomes still.

The size, variance of the chaotic portion of the universe appears to be 0.5²π²/3. It is suggested that this is not an accident. 0.5 is the odds of a binary choice. π is Pi, the mathematical symbol related to a circle, perfection, an absolute. 3 is the minimum size of a stable group,  ( E.g., a trinity). It is also suggested that the size of the chaotic portion of the universe is equal to the size of the orderly portion of the universe.

Order can arise from Chaos, but only as a means of increasing Entropy. That is, two atoms can undergo fusion to become a single atom with lower energy, increasing Entropy, and while this appears to be more orderly, but this is only a temporary waypoint until its eventual further decay, release of energy, and an further increase in entropy.

I would suggest that in casting himself out of heaven, Lucifer, Satan, was trying to become a single member who approached the absolute, exhibited parabolic behavior, not hyperbolic behavior. If there is an example of hyperbolic behavior it is orderly, favors a group, is a System Optimal solution. If there is an example of parabolic behavior, it selfishly favors only the individual, is a User Optimal solution. Observations of hyperbolic behavior in a chaotic domain are examples of orderly behavior. Observations of parabolic behavior in a chaotic domain are exmples of chaotic behavior.

Whether it is “I am the Lord thy God. Thou shall have no God before me” or Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity where objects can not exceed the speed of light, an absolute, you can try to reduce error, but to err is human, to forgive is divine. Don’t try to be something that you are not.  By definition humans will always have error because they are not Divine. Have humility, not hubris, and accept that, or risk also casting  yourself into chaos..
