Chuck Palahniuk Quotes

All The Demons Of Hell Formerly Reigned As Gods In Previous Cultures. No It's Not Fair, But One Man's God Is Another Man's Devil. As Each Subsequent Civilization Became A Dominant Power, Among Its First Acts Was To Depose And Demonize Whoever The Previous Culture Had Worshipped. The Jews Attacked Belial, The God Of The Babylonians. The Christians Banished Pan And Loki Anda Mars, The Respective Deities Of The Ancient Greeks And Celts And Romans. The Anglican British Banned Belief In The Australian Aboriginal Spirits Known As The Mimi. Satan Is Depicted With Cloven Hooves Because Pan Had Them, And He Carries A Pitchfork Based On The Trident Carried By Neptune. As Each Deity Was Deposed, It Was Relegated To Hell. For Gods So Long Accustomed To Receiving Tribute And Loving Attention, Of Course This Status Shift Put Them Into A Foul Mood.
