You know what they say about the greatest trick the Devil ever did was to make the world believe that he doesn't exist.
Early Religion 101
Once upon a time, when Canaanites and Hebrews were still the same F-ckiing people! There was a horned rain and thunder god named Baal-El. He was worshipped in the canaanite Pantheon not as the chief god, but as the most powerful one - (El was the chief god - well.... kind of like what Kronos was to Zeus anyway - hmmm wonder where the greeks got that idea?) Anyway El eventually became Elohim and Baal became Beelzebub as a result. But in the old days, niether El, nor Baal where particularly good or evil - mankind assigned new names to them when the hill-folk who eventually became israelites and judahites (yeah there was a big difference btw - israelites still worshiped pagan gods while judahites didn't) suddenly attached elohim and beelzebub with their god vs. evil stigma. However, in the south of ancient canaan - the judahites called god ywvh and it took some time for ywvh and elohim to be incorporated into one universal diety...yeah thats right ITS GOD!!!!!! YEAAAAH! Then all there was left was baal. Baal-El -/Beelzebub - the creation of god was eventually name Lucifer, the devil, the morning star - you name it! How can this be true????
ANGELS 101
Did you ever wonder why the names of the seraphim and most lower orders of angels and the name EL in them - Danyel Mikael, Gabriel, Raphael, Azrael, etc.... Because way back in the day - all polytheistic minor deities had the name El attached to them. Baal-El was a major diety but still had this stigma attached as he was baal's 1st born!!!!
Soooo in a cosmically stupid contradictary tradition - those who tried to encase infinity into a book - inadvertantly rationalized that...
GODS 1st BORN WAS THE DEVIL - Necessitating the advent of christianity so that we can get our "story" straight and sleep better at night!
Now doesn't that just blow your freakin head off!!!!!!!
To answer the question posed in this thread - While the devil - according to the bible anyway was once upon a time the god of fvck....somebody had to be his daddy!!!
