And so, and because a lot of them, basically that just means that we don't have full knowledge of what we're doing.
The demons had absolute pure knowledge.
So when they made their choice, it was unadulterated malice.
They knew that God even gave them the grace to accept their task, but they absolutely refused to accept it.
The third of the angels had failed, because we know that from the book of Revelation, where it talks about how the dragon swept a third of the stars down.
And the fathers of the church say that that was an indicator that a third of the angels fell and became demons as a result of it.
So the demons are actually fallen angels whose will is now fixed.
So once they make their choice, it's all in.
You know, it's not half-hearted.
No, it's a full choice.
They're either going to accept God's will or they're not going to do it.
And then the third instance is right after that, then if they refuse to accept their task, then they're damned immediately.
So they immediately experience what we call in the Catholic theology, the pain of loss.
They immediately experience, I'm never going to see God.
I'm never going to see him.
And that's where our ultimate happiness is.
So they know they're going to be miserable.
Plus they have remorse of conscience and all those things, because they're intelligent creatures.
But then of those who were faithful, then they immediately got to see God.
And then, of course, we read from Scripture there was a battle that ensues, which is a battle of the wills in heaven, because that's all they have is intellect and will.
