Addressing your issues one by one: No, I'm not saying we should be anti-science. I was saying that humans are the ones slowly destroying the planet, but demons are helping them do so. Humans are to blame for continuing to enlarge their carbon emissions. If humans were extinct, pollution rates would drop drastically and animal and plant life would naturally flourish. Not everyone has a good life, so I'm just telling you to not waste it by talking to people like me. I have nothing left to make clear and I'm not looking for a scapegoat for this particular subject. No, I don't believe in any fictional beings or objects. I simply am the creator of many fictional universes through flash fiction, video games, animation and visual artwork, so I've learned to be more descriptive by treating anything and everything as if it is real, as to respect the beliefs and ideas of everyone.

This may seem disjointed and contradictory, because what I am responding to (your statement) is disjointed and contradictory. There are no such things as demons, so they could not help or hinder humans.Β Furthermore, respecting beliefs does not equate subscribing to nonsense.Β As for treating all things as real when you know they are not, that is an even greater surrender of reason than those who believe based purely on blind faith.Β You see, belief in demons or pretending that you do to respect other beliefs is the very definition of anti-science.Β As a whole science is defined as requiring repeatable observable patterns and evidence to be accepted as truth.Β In other words for something to be accepted as science, other scientists have to be able to consistently and continually reproduce those results and observations in a consistent and disciplined matter.Β Belief is acceptance in absence of or despite evidence. Quite frankly treating all things and everything as real for whatever weird justification is just reckless. Furthermore, your hatred of humans seems shockingly nihilistic.Β For whatever strange motivation you seem to want to cast human beings as naturally evil and destructive.Β However I would surmise that all the doctors, artists, poets, scientists and others from history who have used their talents to better and aid their fellow humans would heartily disagree.Β You seem to be motivated by some unfocused cynical rage.

I would imagine a lot of that is owed to the Church centuries back, which are rather against the idea of science in general if Galileo is anything to go by. It would be easy for them to associate science with something 'evil' to dissuade the faithful from studying it.
Of course, in this day and age where we're a lot more enlightened than before, the fact that the values we take for granted are associated with demons more than angels is a highly amusing thought.

Lucifer and Satan are not the same persons.
Lucifer is a fallen angel, formerly known as Luciel, first angel ever.
One day he wanted to play god, because he didn't agree with god. He left heaven with other angels and went to hell, kicked Satan of his throne and claimed hell as his newΒ kingdom.
So Satan isn't the emperor at all.

Okay.
This was done for a school project with sources that cannot be checked as fact, for all of this is pure fiction. I honestly don't mind if you claim that the supreme unicorn overlord was transformed into a sugar-plum demon and sits on his candy throne. I've answered countless comments where each person claims a different thing about the demons/angels and I posted some of the sources I managed to dig up, because I did this over five years ago. Everyone has different sources on this and it all boils down to which book you're referring to and how the writer of the book imagined all of them.

This is awesome! I'm glad you took the time to make a visual ranking graph. 10/10!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it ^^

Wow! This is really awe inspiring! I kept trying to figure out which angel/demon was next before I read it : P

There are many artistic representations. This is just one of them.

I am sure you found some angelological source that claimed Principalities and Powers are angels, but here is the text (Eph 6:12):
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in highΒ places.
They sound demonic, I would think. Perhaps some are confused by their location in High Places. but Paul believed the earth was flat and surmounted by a 7 level dome. Heaven with god was beyond the 7th dome while the lower domes had been occupied by the rebellious spirits with the intention of preventing humans souls from ascending (cf. Lord of this world IICor 4:4)

Thanks for your comment. This is just a small number of many examples that I was looking through:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiaβ¦
www.catholic.org/saints/angelsβ¦
Again, I never claimed to be a theology expert and I didn't research just Christianity, just Judaism or any other religion in particular by itself. Nothing stated in my little design should be considered fact. The goal was to create an infographic representing angels and demons, so I did cross referencing, searched through different sources and I even cut out many entities, because they were just too similar to each other and I needed variety. Just for fun - not for studying from.

Admittedly my complaint is with the theological blunders of your sources. But I can't e-mail the dead.

It's okay. This isn't here to challenge any beliefs.

One little nitpock, Cherubim tradtionally have blue wings.Β
Otherwise the artwork is really nice, especially the Archangel. Have you done any artwork based on detailimg them?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hah no prob. I haven't found any reference that specifically states that Cherubim have blue wings. I would love to get your ref on that.
Detailing, as in, creating specific artwork for each and every one of them?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's mostly an artistic tradition, four winged cherubim(even if only show with one face and two wings) get blue wings, six winged seraphim get red wings(even if they only have two wings)
www.britannica.com/topic/serapβ¦
Is a source I could find.
I am looking for a good picture to link to.
π: 0 β©: 1
Cool, but I have yet to find any depictions of the cherubs with blue wings.Β

So, what religion(or religions) would this fall under? Seems christian, but I don't remember any of this. Maybe it's a protestant vs catholic thing, or maybe it's just been that long since I've bothered with this stuff. Either way, this some good stuff. I imagine it took a lot of research, too, so good job.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you.
Well, it was done more than 5 years ago, so I don't really remember the details. I remember I researched some Judaism and Christianity, but also, there are some books that just talk about angels like independent beings, existing just as is. It's a weird subject to research and I don't claim any of this is accurate.Β

Much better than Humon's since I can actually read this one.

I don't really know who Humon is, but thank you

I think he refers to this poster:
Angel and Demon Hierarchy poster
I like her style, but yours is more detailed and easy to read
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh yes, that style is amazing! I actually don't do anything in this style anymore. I'm glad you like it though. It was a school project where we needed to combine design with an infograph. Anyways, if you want to stay in touch with my newest art, pay me a visit on my instagram:Β www.instagram.com/dejan.poljvaβ¦

it's a little odd seeing Satan in a crop top with no pants.Β
π: 0 β©: 2
Well, he is the biggest sinner of all time sooooo, you know I mean LOL
π: 0 β©: 0
Hahaha I see what you mean xD At the time, I thought it would be a good idea to give him some stylized armor. I wouldn't do that now
