He had differing views on the universe and wanted to reflect his views as much as his fathers, and when he was given the chance to do so, such as when bringing a world into compliance, they became the most devout followers of the Imperium.

Since Lorgar was such a kind soul, he was looked down upon by all the other Primarchs other than Magnus and Sanguinius. Where they were warriors, generals and kings, Lorgar was a scholar and a diplomat. He had only two real friends, at first it was Magnus and, towards the end of the Heresy, only Angron counted Lorgar as a friend (Shocking, I know)

Lorgar gave up so much for the Imperium and his brothers, even before and after the start of the Heresy. What made him the villain was his wish to spread the "truth" of existance, that all were to serve the Primordial Truth, AKA the Chaos Gods. He had simply been manipulated into it, yet he sparked a war he never wanted which pitted his brothers against each other, which he didn't want either.

Lorgars tale is one of sacrifice and sorrow, and the only thing I would have been happy about if the HH was succesfull was because Lorgar could actually get his due and be right. Is it me or is Lorgar, Magnus and Alpharius/Omegon remind me of Mr. Freeze? All of them are anti-villians, very sympathetic, their goals and views are actually decent, they are actually nice to the different, most of them thought they were doing good for humanity. But in the end they were bullied and pushed around by even their own siblings, and that their sacrifice were up for nothing. Shows how much of a horrible dad the Emperor was.
