So how am I to interpret the quotes here: LDS.org - Archives by Topic - War in Heaven Those words seem strangely out of context if the war was something passive and metaphorical.

So was it a war, or did God just quarantine them? Was there any actual fighting? In the years I've been in the church, it's always just been described as a war to me.

Maybe I was unclear. I literally mean how does someone actually lose? War is an event where death determines the winner or loser, so how can anybody "lose" here?

Quick, simple question. How does one lose a war with spirits? They didn't have bodies after all...
