The story of Lucifer and his rebellion destroys the reason for humans to have free will. Lucifer lived in heaven and yet still rebelled. Because Lucifer was able to rebel, he and the other angels must have free will. According to the mythology, angels can reside in heaven, in god's presence and decide whether to love him or not.

The entire reason that humans are given free will is so that they can make a decision to love god without any influence from his presence. Yet, if god is so great and wonderful that humans would automatically love him if they were in his presence, why were the fallen angels able to decide to not love god?
