![]() Demons that try to induce old women to attend Witches' Sabbaths. ![]() Cambions and other demons that are born from the union of a demon with a human being.Wandering groups or armies of demons can include multiple regions in hell.Spina's classification of demons Īlphonso de Spina, in 1467, prepared a classification of demons based on several criteria: Later writers, such as Peter Binsfeld, assigned different demons to the respective sins and should not be confused with this list. This list was later used in the works of John Taylor, the Water Poet. In 1409-1410 The Lanterne of Light (an anonymous English Lollard tract often attributed to John Wycliffe) provided a classification system based on the seven deadly sins, known as the "seven deadly devils" or "seven princes of Hell", with each demon tempting people by means of those sins. Man being attacked by the 7 deadly devils Lanterne of Light classification of demons The work of Psellus would inspire many other later demonic classifications, from various occult authors to the witch hunting manual by Francesco Maria Guazzo. Michael Psellus prepared the influential De operatione dæmonum (On the Operation of Demons) in the 11th century, with a taxonomy dividing demons into six types: Leliurium (Igneous), Aërial, Marine (Aqueous), Terrestrial (Earthly), Subterranean, and Lucifugous (Heliophobic). The date is very dubious, though it is considered the oldest surviving work particularly concerned with individual demons. I try not to look at ResetEra stuff but seeing a member outside of the forum just reminds me they are even too crazy for Twitter.The Testament of Solomon is a pseudepigraphical work, purportedly written by King Solomon, in which the author mostly describes particular demons whom he enslaved to help build the temple, the questions he put to them about their deeds and how they could be thwarted, and their answers, which provide a kind of self-help manual against demonic activity. Sorry to post that essay but is this a copypasta I don't know about, or is the forum really that cult-like? I mean the Friendly Negro trope makes me think it's fake but I don't know anymore. And I hope one day you'll re-evaluate it as more than just a "dumpster fire". They have people in marginalized groups who present their life struggles and show how they feel when words like "Are we gonna steal from that house?" are said to them. Sites like ResetEra teach you why bigoted statements are hurtful other than they're "wrong". I didn't have a chance to apologize before I learned of his sudden passing. And I "repaid" his kindness with my hurtful words. He drew one of my characters from the goodness of his heart. He was an artist, and he was open to art requests. But I had nowhere to go to learn from my mistakes. But I knew there was more to it than that. The laziest explanation I could think was "he was just really sensitive!". After the ride, I had no idea why he avoided interaction with me. "But I didn't say a single n-word! Does he not like jokes?" He told me that if I kept making racist jokes, he would drop me off right there. Then I continued with "Is this your house now?". When he did this, I asked "Are we going to steal from this house?" in a joking tone. My friend realized what was wrong before me, so he pulled a 3 point turn near a house. We were sidetracked by a malfunctioning GPS and ended up in a residential district. Back in 2010, a good friend (who is no longer in this world, bless him) offered me to carpool with him to a restaurant, where a few other of my friends were also chilling. "It's not like I'm telling them to die or anything!" I was so wrong. I used to mock other people's accents, say the n-word "as a joke", and wonder why women would "complain" about sexual harassment when they would wear what they want to wear. ![]() I'm sure your ilk resonate with that sentence, which is also inaccurate, by the way. Namely, it's "They're just offended by everything!". Instead, they just make a compromise that sits well with them. Some people just choose to not understand. If you can't distinguish prejudices and opinions, then you'll never understand why people react so harshly in the face of harmful ideas and imagery. ![]() The worst that can happen to you is that other people will point out your error.īut bigotry is not a "wrong opinion". It's not as authoritarian as you think it is. I'm not sure how much Kool-Aid you drank to think that way, but your view on Era is inaccurate.
