If Prometheus stole fire to give to humans. Why was he in trouble? Because could not Zeus lightning strikes on earth create fire? Kind of seems like punishing a person for doing what you do.

Oh, but when I say that Lucifer was a hero for getting humans to eat from the Tree of Knowledge I get called a Satanist!

God didn’t like that Lucifers actions detached humans from the “hunger games” style murder fest called “nature”. They were the main attraction. Nobody gives a shit about naked apes farming shit and singing to each other.

Well, there’s also a connection between Prometheus and Lucifer.

Prometheus brought fire. “Lucifer” means “light-bearer”.

Forethinkers are usually punished.

Isn’t Lucifer and Satan two different beings?

Depends on your canon - the Serpent might also have been a different guy.
