If we needed to know more about the demons, the Bible would have told us. Complicated mythologies about spirit beings and their hierarchy are, in the end, nothing more than products of the human imagination, possibly influenced by demons

From the imaginations of the Doommeisters of Texas, especially that revelation at the end of a certain 2nd DLC...:

...enjoy your paradox, OP.
Haha, like the rest of your superstitions (demons included), yes. And ancient human myths. There are traditions of apologetics but they have led nowhere (other than conflicts). Science is much more interesting.

I dunno… For a supposedly “omniscient” text written apparently by the creator of all reality itself, the Bible sure as heck is NOT telling us a lot of essential information we can use. I mean, it doesn’t tell us how to cure cancer, or how to achieve cold fusion energy, or how to achieve FTL speeds in space, or how to build fully sapient yet benevolent AIs… Hell, it didn’t even bother to teach people about printing pressess, arguably the one invention that benefited the Bible the most.
I’d say you’d have more luck with a Grimoire or the Necronomicon if you want actually useful info.

Ah. Like how His Word tells doctors to sterilize their tools, wash their hands, clean their aprons after surgery, wear masks. Like the first known formula for anesthetic, in Leviticus 28:33-42. Like how Psalms 203:12-24 describes how to type blood for transfusions.
Yeah. If it’s not in the bible, it’s nothing we need to know about.
Fuck that.

Adapted old joke from someone in a local CS department: "It is worthless because it doesn't even load Encapsulated Postscript and cannot render square pixel in 1024x768..." (it was initially in relation to a (jokeware) file compressor for Amiga).
Edit/Adding: I could find it again, here ("Documentation" for the fake G-Zus file compressor, there was an actual program but that just moved files elsewhere and replaced them by a small one holding a kind of shortcut, could potentially be hazardous if it causes someone to lose a file, so was eventually in some trojan database).
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
