One interesting idea I've heard bandied about when it comes to this story, which I might eventually take up in my own writing, is the idea that Lucifer was actually the hero all along for challenging a tyrannical God in the face of impossible odds, then making his final act of rebellion the emancipation of mankind from God's absolute domination by exploiting the most idiotic placement of a forbidden tree I have ever seen.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
