When ever I hear something like this I am always reminded of one particular story: The scorpion and the Frog;
Scorpion had lived on the East side of the river valley for his entire life, and as he reached his second year, he asked himself what might await on the other side. Now as we all know, scorpions are unable to swim…
Scorpion approached the bank of the river with dismay, seeing no easy way to cross the river. He searched up and down, but the rainy season had left the river bed far too high for any exposed rock to act as a bridge. Scorpion considered crafting a makeshift raft, but we are all too aware of scorpions’ carpentry skills.
Alas, his plight seemed all but hopeless until he happened upon a lonely frog sitting calmly by the river. Scorpion approached carefully, so as not to frighten the frog, but scorpions are a fearful creature after all and the frog withdrew into the water.
Scorpion yelled to the frog, “Frog, I am Scorpion and I would like to cross the river, but I cannot swim! Can I hop on your back and ride across?”
The frog responded suspiciously, “But you are a scorpion? How am I to know that you will not just sting me?”
Scorpion thought hard about how he could prove his innocence to the frog. Perhaps some logic would do the trick! “My dear frog, if I were to sting you, I would be left in the middle of the river to drown, for as you know, I cannot swim!”
Scorpion’s words were enough to convince the frog, so he agreed to ferry Scorpion across the river. The frog swam to the bank and allowed Scorpion to climb atop his back. Scorpion’s claws dug into the frog’s back, but the frog was still one to help his fellow animal.
As the frog began swimming across the river, he considered whether this would be the start of a lifelong friendship between him and Scorpion. He wondered if Scorpion might return the favor by scaring away the stork on the West bank, who always troubled him so.
Just as the frog’s mind was wondering, he felt a sharp pain in his back. He quickly began to feel his limbs going numb and his swimming began to slow. He cried out to Scorpion, “Why have you stung me Scorpion? Now we are both going to drown here in the river!”
Scorpion replied simply, “Frog, I stung you because it is my nature.”
But that isn't just the only story.
If you are familiar with the story of Lucifer and the Fallen Angels.
According to the story, Lucifer was found as an infant during the war in heaven(s)
He was taken by the "Good Angels" and raised as one of them. As he grew his "light" or his intelligence grew as well, but it was a questioning nature that proceeded fourth from his intelligence. Supposedly Angels did not question "Why" they simply did what had to be done.
Lucifer did not agree with the creation of Man because man was given the gift of Will, something which the Angels did not have. But Lucifer could not bring himself to "Bow" to man since man was created "inferior", so he felt, and he Lucifer was a being of light.
Does this remind anyone of Star Wars yet ? You know the constant questions asked by Anakim and his personal battle which raged inside of him to be himself.
So Lucifer would not bow to Man or acknowledge man as a far greater creation. So Lucifer approached Adam and learned that will was the ability to question and in particular to say "NO"
So Lucifer in learning this began preaching among angels, many who accepted his teachings of Will. For this, for his rebelliousness he and those angels who sided with him were cast from the heavens.
The point being, he Lucifer, was simply following his nature. The nature of HIS people, and not the ways of the other race(s) of beings that did not question.
It was all a part of his Make Up, his genetics.
