>Explain to me how Lucifer is the good guy, and how he is not Satan.

In the Bible, Lucifer is only referenced as a metaphor in regards to the chastisement of a Babylonian king. That is, the direct target of the epithet was, inarguably, a historical human being. The war in heaven and the throwing down of fallen angels into hell doesn't appear anywhere outside of that metaphor and, if anything, was likely the result of some pagan syncretism. Hell doesn't even exist in judaism, and the idea of it can only have come from non-abrahamic sources.

Satan is referenced numerous times in the Bible, and because 'satan' is a title and not a name, most of these references are completely unique individuals. There are multiple individuals in the Bible referred to as 'satan' who are, unquestionably, normal human beings. There is at least one angel referred to as 'satan,' but it is apparent in the text that this angel is a loyal servant of God. He is not 'satan' (adversary) towards God, but rather 'satan' (adversary) towards Man. He literally serves the role of Accuser of Man within the context of the story in which he appears.

'Lucifer' is only the 'good guy' if you think that exalting yourself above God is 'good.' Every religion on earth insists that hubris is not good, however.

>And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth...
>And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
>And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
>And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him...
>And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
>And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
>And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
