10. That would be my guess

By initiating "original sin," Satan put in motion the whole misery of humankind under the hand of the unmerciful god. You know, the god who kills people, floods the earth, lets babies die, sacrifices his own son and all the other wonderful things god does throughout the Bible.

But I think the OP is referring to something else. We don't see Lucifer a whole lot in the New Testament, especially after Jesus' death so I'm going to guess it's something in the Old Testament.
