    The Bible does NOT answer that question.

    Those who answer "one third" are basing that answer on a **definite misinterpretation** of a passage in The Book of Revelation, a passage that the author wrote described a *future* event (from the author's perspective), not a past event, which the fall of Satan and his followers certainly must have been.

    The only scripture that alludes to that, is a reference to the 'dragon' brushing a third (1/3) of the 'stars' to earth with his tail.

    We take that as imagery of fallen angels - now known as demons - the same kind of demons that Jesus cast out of demoniacs.

    1. I suppose you are talking about 'angels' and not 'angles'. 2. No angel was kicked out of God's kingdom (heaven). 3. from where do you read these falsehoods?
