Besides, Mundus isn't the God of this world. Seemingly, there's this entity called Malice that controls Limbo and causes the city to try to kill Dante.
 
I imagine the city's giant incarnation as a foe whom you may have to face at some point in the game before Mundus.
 
I think he's really on the side of the angels. He seems to know something that the general population doesn't know. What if he knows about the demons? Maybe he thinks Dante's really on his side and is using whatever he can for the population to throw him down.
Who says the angels have to be the good guys?

Because the Demons are the bad guys. Angels, since they aren't moral in DmC, would at least be neutral.

There can be a grey area, you know. Sparda was a demon, but he was a good guy, wasn't he?

He only saved us out of pity (according to DMC1), so who knows.

Good, then. Makes him a good guy, doesn't it? He wasn't like Mundus, who wanted to kill humans because they're puny. He saved the humans out of pity, and that makes him good. Again, the grey area.

Pity doesn't make good, it only means he saw us as weak, not because he thought it was right.

If I look at a spider, I see it as weak. Now, that spider is trying to find a good place to nest. And I squish it. To the spider population, I'm evil. But the person who helps it out of pity (those animal lovers)--to them--is good. It is a perceived goodness, which is something that many writers (including me) try to use instead the regular "It's good because it's right!"

Get what I'm trying to say?
 
I've said it before, but I think that both angels and demons are a'holes in this story and Dante is the one who's going to teach everyone the true meaning of christmas. Angels will provably be portrayed as not caring about humans and demons as activly trying to hurt humans and Dante and his little gang of missfits are the only ones who really care about the species, it's pretty comon now adays and I kinda think it's become a cliche.

Also, Tam said himself that angels would be portrayed as moraly ambigious, unlike traditional views.
