I would be interested in what anyone thought might make a modern Angel fall.
In the past we've had everything from love, greed, duty, honour, lust, passion, envy and conceit. Are there any reasons in today's society that might temp or cause another fall?

Well as most of you know I am not an Angel, but I wouldn't think there would be anything worth falling over anymore.
Innocence is history, and mostly decency is none existent, honour is in short supply, and honesty is more extinct than any dinosaur you care to name. What else is left?

actually, Falling, as far as I know and believe has always been the same offense.

directly and willfully disobeying a direct order from the Creator.

Anything else can get one in trouble, but only absolutely breaking a rule can knock you down.

Avarice or megalomania might do it.

Shade traffic cones are worth falling over.
Everyone looks at you and says "how on earth did you miss that???"

But there has to be something worth directly and willfully disobeying a direct order from the creator over, and I'm with Shade, I can't think anything today would be worth it.

doing majorly bad things can get you in trouble, but there is a difference between getting in trouble and getting the boot.

Over time, things seem worth making that direct breach of rules, example, how many of you were raised in a particular faith by your parents and have broken from that faith?

To my knowledge, God didn't do anything wrong, but many times it's the church, or your perception of the church, or something else that come along, where you end up leaving. Angels aren't outside that paradigm either, some eventually just disagree and find themselves doing what they perceive to be the wrong thing.
