Post enlightenment and lucifer?

Does anybody ever think about the relationship between the two? since they say Lucifer is an angel of light and means "enlightened one" or something like that... isnt the whole point of being enlightened is so that you can be like god? wouldn't that be bad? (like when Lucifer supposedly wanted to be like god, which got him kicked outa heaven) maybe God thinks its disrespectful to try and be at his level (well according to traditional Xian views)...

I've always thought about this... like in Genesis where it says the serpent deceived adam and eve... didn't he tell them the truth? God did know that their eyes would be open and they wouldn't die and they would gain knowledge of good and evil...he also told them they would be like God...so maybe he didn't lie, maybe he knew that humans would abuse this knowledge of good and evil and use it to try and become 'like God'? or was he simply trying to "enlighten us"... the only 2 answers I got when asking this question in the past explains that : A) prior to that, man wasn't intended to ever experience death and B) God was talking about a spiritual death.... but I feel there's more to it then that.

I myself was raised with regular Christian beliefs, but then I started questioning a lot and have became more"spiritual" and enlightened over the past years... if i could go a few years back, my old self would tell me that I'm being deceived by the devil and am lost and have strayed away from gods teachings...but then I would respond that my old self is so close minded and being controlled and manipulated like the rest of the stupid general population....but I just feel there's so much more to all this religion and life stuff....so my views have changed drastically and I have much more of an open mind now...I just don't wanna believe the wrong things just because my curiosity of life has led me here....

Sorry for such a long post...and I'm not really asking a specific question, I just want to get some insight on the issues that I struggle with in my mind....
