Earth shattering, but not able to do much in the realm of man without some major paperwork and red tape.
One angel dips his stick to many times and makes a few nephalim and there goes the time of demigod like fun times.
But I digress, that shrine looked like a cheap Halloween ornament, Satan is voing to get pissed.

To be fair, he did qualify that with "extreme".

I generally reserve it for people -- men or women, but it tends to piss off the women more -- who have really, really upset me. For reference, I don't think (at least as far as I can recall) I've ever wanted to call anyone on this forum a ***, even in the most heated debates.

That's just an Ophanim, silly.
They don't ALL look like that!
Take the Cherubim, for instance: head of a man, ox, lion, and eagle. Four wings equilateral to each other (eg: + or x). Split (cloven) feet like a cow. And hands.
SMT: educating Christians on Christianity better than Christians do.
And all from a country where there's all of 5 Christians.

Oh, I've thought lots of nasty names. It's just that partciular word is reserved for very specific circumstances, and it has to feel organic. It's not like "***", which is just an every day emphatic for me.

Satan is the number one Jewish/Christian being.
The guy basically spends his entire existence trying to take the job of God. Thus all satanism is a form of Christianity. True Satanic ceremonies are almost pure Catholic inversion.
I know, in my pursuit of history and theology I have been to 8 or so black masses. The best part: when Satan doesn't come for the sacrificial lamb, usually a leg of lamb and usually properly rare, it forms the centerpiece of the post mass dinner.
LOTS tastier than that Catholic cracker and watered down wine.
Quetzalcoatl.Wakmidget said: »Technically [Satan] is a fallen angel. When God created Man, he asked his followers to Love Man as they would love him. And Satan refused. So he got the boot... for eternity.... No technically about it. First among the Archangels IIRC.
I like the way the provocation to the fall was described in Dudley Moore's Bedazzled (1967). Moore's character asks Satan "why the fall?"
"I'll demonstrate" - sits on top of a post box "Now dance around me, sing hosannas, bow, an praise me."
After a bit "Look, this is getting boring, how about we trade places?"
"That's it, exactly!"

Wut? Might be passed my time so don't get the reference totally.
It is a actually a reference to "The Prophecy" (3?) with Christopher Walken. At one point he says the great flood was to get rid of Nephalim.
@ who ever said he was an Arch Angel, Lucifer was a Seraphim, the highest of Angels. First among the host of heaven, the light bearer.
Also the wheel within wheel thing is of the order of Angel known as Thrones.

So wait, the argument is now about movie/TV references over a religious concept?
In other words, a fictional event over another fictional event.
Anyone else see the irony here?

Satanic Temple puts up display at Michigan Capitol
Quote: A "Snaketivity" scene featuring a snake offering a book called "Revolt of the Angels" as a gift is on display on the grounds of the Capitol in Lansing, Mich., Sunday, Dec. 21, 2014. Satanic Temple spokeswoman Jex Blackmore says in a videotaped interview with the Lansing State Journal that her group doesn't worship Satan but promotes individuality, compassion and views that differ from Christian and conservative beliefs. Photo: Robert Killips, AP Quote: LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Christians and Satanists put up competing displays Sunday on the Michigan Capitol grounds as Christmas week got underway.
The Detroit chapter of the Satanic Temple set up its "Snaketivity Scene" featuring a snake offering a book called "Revolt of the Angels" as a gift. The snake is wrapped around the Satanic cross on the 3-feet-by-3-feet display. Capitol rules require that displays have to be taken down each night.
In a videotaped interview with the Lansing State Journal (http://on.lsj.com/1z9vp1h ), Satanic Temple spokeswoman Jex Blackmore said her group doesn't worship Satan but does promote individuality, compassion and views that differ from Christian and conservative beliefs.
Blackmore said that the "holiday season is a time of year that is celebrated in many different ways."
"Having our government endorse one singular viewpoint or method of celebrating the season is problematic when we have a diverse community of people in Michigan," she said.
Word of the Satanic Temple's plans led state Sen. Rick Jones, a Grand Ledge Republican, to erect a Nativity scene on Friday featuring baby Jesus, Joseph and Mary. He put it back up Sunday morning.
Jones said he was happy to "represent the light and not the darkness."
"They could have put theirs up in July or April or sometime. They didn't need to put it up in the Christmas season," Jones said. "That's OK. We're going to ignore them. I'm not afraid of the snake people. I'm sure that Jesus Christ is not afraid."
Blackmore told MLive.com her group is "really pleased to be part of what is perhaps a new holiday tradition at the Capitol."
Martin Diller, a 28-year-old who served two tours in Iraq with the Michigan National Guard and one in Afghanistan, visited the Capitol grounds after attending Mass at St. Thomas Aquinas Parish in East Lansing. He said he wanted to see how the constitutional rights issue played itself out.
"A few of my friends in the military, we like to see the First Amendment in use," Diller said. "We all went overseas, we fought for it, it's kind of interesting to see it in action."
