Depends on which angels you mean. A third of the angels sided with the
devil, as we are assured in Revelations 12 verse 9:
"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and
Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and
his angels were cast out with him."
Being on the side of the angels is a wonderfully ambiguous moral position.
