He's no idiot. He knew what a douche the god was, so he rebelled. He said, "Fuck you! I rather be doomed for eternity than serve you!" Then the god made him look like the bad guy. He even tried to educate Adam and Eve by telling them that the god was being selfish by not allowing them to gain wisdom by eating the forbidden fruit. He was just being helpful! Poor dude deserves some street cred. Hail Satan!
