- W4289718823 abstract "For Augustine, angels became demons in their failure to love God above all. This chapter gives an overview of that fall, beginning with Augustine’s understanding of evil as pride’s apostasy from God, moving on to examine two issues that confront him concerning the devil’s fall. The first is the question of whether that fall can have any cause, which is explored in terms of Augustine’s basic commitment to the non-competitive relationship between the created will and the God that creates and empowers it. The second issue is Augustine’s understanding of when and in what conditions the devil fell, and the development of Augustine’s conviction that all angels must have been established in the good at their creation. What both discussions clarify, however, is that these issues arise because of how difficult it is to maintain the logical consequences of the demons’ lack of animal bodies. This fundamental difference of embodiment between demons and humans is made clear in Augustine’s treatment of the story of the fall of Adam and Eve, where the comparison of the fall of the angels to the human fall reveals a crucial component of Augustine’s demonology: demons must assume some kind of embodiment in order to interact with humans in history." @default.
