A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Satan/Lucifer is not the opposite of God but a opposing force to the creation and will of God. Lucifer is kind of the oldest teenager with a bad case of "I hate my creator" temper tantrum ever.

In that way Lucifer itself is already the antichrist, he is just missing a corporal manifestation on earth.

Well and Lucifer is, a lot like the named angels, Jesus and all the saints, a great loophole for monotheistic Christian religion around the first commandment.

edit notes: Corrected german written Luzifer to Lucifer

It's "Lucifer." It means "Light Bearer."

In German he is written with a z, "Luzifer", and my tired German brain just took that instead of the correct English writing. Sorry for that! 🫣
