      Lucifer dared to question his father and was cast out for eternity and demonized for not blindly obeying. Not surprising he’d be a bit salty about that.

      IIRC in the Bible Lucifer only kills one person, versus the millions God kills at a whim, usually for disobeying some bullshit he came up with that he never told anyone about.

      Satan really just runs the place for God’s undesirables. Why would you want to worship the largest mass murderer in history in the first place though?

      Assuming the stories and parables are true, or even based on any sort of reality, which of course they aren’t.

        In the 80’s/90’s there was a huge satanic panic and RPG player were part of it. At the time the hobby was mysterious, many players are neurodivergent, and seen as socially awkward or edgy and as soon as a RPG player committed suicide, it was because of D&D. Not the other way around (depressed kid plays RPG to be with similar people, but still ends up dying from the depression).

        To be fair, at the time the hobby also played on this image with games like In nomine Satanis or simply Vampire and it’s only recently that the community add a huge focus on emotional safety and inclusions.
