When our youth pastor was going over that in our studies, Max, he claimed it was because Lucifer was "the great deceiver" and had fooled these angels into following them.
Lucifer was an arch-angel if memory serves, so perhaps it boiled down to him being their commanding officer if you will.
So let me understand this properly. These are angels that saw and knew God - the all powerful, all knowing etc. etc.
Yet, they could be sweet talked out of supporting him by Lucifer? Way to go Lucy!
Doesn't sound massively credible does it?
Or is God just one of those guys that doesn't really impress up close?
Of course you get the typical answer of "Well god allowed it to happen, he could have stopped him if he wanted to."
To which my response is then your god is a lazy douche.
