In some ways, Sam feels sorry for Lucifer. He doesn't condone the killing or the backstabbing or the stealing his family away bit by bit, but in some ways, Lucifer is a reboot of The Prodigal Son. God tried so hard to be the best father that he could by training his sons as soldiers. He wanted them to stay safe so he made them warriors. One day, Lucifer wanted more than his father was willing to give and cast him out.
Did Lucifer beg and pleads like a frightened child to be let back into Heaven? No, instead he made himself a kingdom with slaves and minions and servants and became the master if his domain. In some ways, God should have been proud of his son for making so much out of so little, not started a war for control.
Every time Sam thinks about it, the absent father, the warrior sons, the need to stand alone and make something if himself, he can't help but feel sympathetic.
