Anonymous asked: Why do you write satan with capital "s"? Do people write it so as a general rule? Is that his name? Sorry I'm not English so I might not be aware of some language rules. But I thought that satan means something like demon or evil spirit, and the proper name is Lucifer? And how do we know the names of devils anyway?
Lucifer is just another name for Satan, who is a fallen angel. We know the name of Satan because the Bible calls him it. A lot of people feel like capitalizing Satan’s name is wrong because it acknowledges his existence and gives him power. If that’s the case, Satan sure gets a lot of power from the Bible, as he’s mentioned there by that name almost 50 times.
Anyway, the reason I capitalize Satan is because it’s a proper name, and these things were beat into me as an elementary school student. It’s too late to change my ways.
