Catholic church admits that a telescope named LUCIFER (later shortened to LUCI) is at the Vatican outpost in Arizona and that they have access to it. They deny "owning" it.... but they funded it. They used a telescope named LUCIFER, which is the name of God's adversary!

'Lucifer' means 'bringer of light' ... literally ... and that's a great name for a telescope.

But no ... 'God's adversary', the enemy of a deity that, accordingly, must therefore be the ... 'bringer of darkness'?

Also, a deity with an equally magic and invisible adversary in a ... 'mono'-theism?

But of course! :/

So much damage has been done because the Romans were somehow fooled into conflating 'The One' (a Platonic philosophical concept for the original/universal consciousness) with the worship of 'Yahweh' (some primitive, barbarous and demonstrably evil Middle-Eastern tribal deity, and its associated mythology) ... leading to all kinds of nonsensical crap.

Lucifer wasn't always evil. He was God's first originally created spirit. And he was exceptionally beautiful and perfect, because God made him perfect, the same as all the other spirits God made. But because of free will, Lucifer chose to reject God (and his love) and lost his bright nature and became dark, the opposite of God.

invisible adversary

Lucifer was the opposite: he was visible, while God is invisible. The other spirits could see Lucifer, but could not see God. They wanted to see God, but could not. Lucifer tried to take God's place and convinced many spirits to follow him and reject God.

The solution: God became man and man became God through the man Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross so that the spirits that rejected him and fell here with Lucifer may repent and be forgiven of their enormous guilt.

What do you mean 'was' this or that, 'beautiful', 'visible', etc?

Don't Yahweh-worshippers believe that the deity's adversary currently 'is' (e.g. 'visible') ... as in today?

As for that ... 'solution':

It's that the deity then becomes human, and vice versa, in order to be sacrificed to the deity (i.e. itself!?), so that it (the deity i.e. itself) can be appeased into forgiving humans (sparing them from mass murder) ... oh, and into forgiving the spirits that rejected it and fell here with Lucifer, so they may repent and be forgiven of their enormous guilt.

OMG, pardon the pun.

If it were just you believing such stuff, as opposed to entire institutions, and a large chunk of our species, with you being just another follower among billions, I'd suspect some kind of mental issue.

Well, I still do ... only it's a mass mental issue ... and it may prove to be our species' 'great filter'.

You are not forced to accept the sacrifice of Jesus Christ made on your behalf. You are free to choose another destiny, but then you will have rejected God's love all over again and be headed to a place devoid of love. You insult other people, while I didn't say anything about your IQ or your mental health. There is no need for us to continue talking.
