Lucifer was just the original, angry, teenage rebel who got angry that dad was paying more attention to humans than him.

Present day Satan is just an adapted pagan god given a new name and new branding to let you know that pagans are evil.

If anything Satan wants liberation from God's perfect order. But unfortunately that sounds like he doesn't want any heavenly regulation to his markets and thus - uh oh.

And that's where I get really annoyed with the cowardice of the conservative. If they only had the balls to admit they wished evil on the world, that they didn't care, that want more and drat the consequences fully than at least they could honestly be the beast they claim to be in their actions. There is nothing more annoying than a monster who flails about trying to act like what they're not, but somehow still win because the prey is always dumb enough to buy their horrible lie.

Did the news even use the word "base" before Trump came along? I can't even remember.

edit: I don't remember much in general about the before time.

:ssh: McNaughton is Mormon. This is how Satan is often portrayed in Mormonism--his number one priority is to restrict human freedom. McNaughton thinks everyone believes this because he is an idiot.

The right still brings her up whenever they need a distraction, and boy, do they need distractions these days. So to be fair, he probably sees her on his favorite news sources constantly. And she hides under his bed, he knows it, she's in his medicine cabinet, there is no escape from the Pantsuited One, oh, god, oh god, she wants to suck the guns out of his blood.

Cythereal posted:

In Christian theology, it's unclear that Satan is even a thing, or at least anything resembling his pop culture depiction.

Also note that the Rapture is nowhere to be found in the Bible and "antichrist" is a term applied to anyone who is against Christ, not a singular figure.

Also note that 777 is the number of divinity in the Bible. 666 is a representation of man's near-miss of divine nature, so it sure sounds like Satan is the avatar of man's failings and not the cause of them.

It's more that for every decent comic, he has half a dozen that pretty much say the opposite thing.

Like re: the nazi one, yeah, you should do something. Know what you could have done? Not drawn an equivalency between Hillary (emails!) and Trump (actually supported by Nazis) for like six loving months. Maybe if he would look in the mirror a bit people would ease up on him.

You can both hate nazis and also be part of the problem that has given them renewed prominence.
