Why would you need a list of names...?

Ooo, Astaroth is da bomb. He/she has gotten some serious crap over the ages.. but she's flipping amazing.

Oh really....? Such as?

Mostly just confusing her with other (negative) gods/demons, blaming a lot of work from negative spirits on her/him, some religions say she temps people to be slothful. I read one site that claimed he was a sexual predator who raped virgins on their wedding nights.. *rolls eyes*

*rolls eyes again* I know. *gags*

Such hypocrites people can be.. bleah. They aren't all bad though. My therapist is technically a Catholic and he thought is was great when I started summoning demons. He goes, 'You know, I'm kinda thinking, I wish I could try that..' Lol.

Lol! Wow, I'd never heard that before. Just that she was an ancient goddess who has been around since the beginning of time, yadda yadda. You know, I read somewhere that El was the original name for the demon Beelzebub. Interesting.

Amon still at least gets lip service from Christians- you know at the end of every prayer - "hidden" meaning. Vowels were pretty loose in ancient Hebrew and Egyptian.

Hahahahahaha!!! you've a point there...very funny. Amon is the "hidden" one lol
