actually beelzebub and lucifer are 2 seperate people. lucifer and satan are one in the same though. you see, lucifer is the ultimate sinner against god, the king of hell. he is the demon or the sin pride. as for beelzebub, he is the demon of gluttony.
and how do i know this? i study mythology and theology.
i hope you like this dude. here is a list of 7 sins in order and their demons
pride: lucifer
gluttony: beelzebub
envy: leviathan
greed: mammon
lust: asmodeus
sloth: belphegor
wrath: amon

Well thanks for commenting on the artwork. :hmm:

It depends on which theology you subscribe to how any thing is defined. Beelzebub is also identified in the New Testament as Satan, the "prince of the demons" . Semantics.

The entire picture (as well as the other in this image series) was influenced/based on books by Piers Anthony where Beelzebub is [defined as] Satan, not meant to represent the entire plethora of theology sects out there.

you can see the flames rising and the details... the upside down cross and the pentagram,great. but i never did understand why people depict satan as a ugly thing with horns. he was the light bearer after all and the most beautiful of angels.

hmm.. well.. in this case it's based on a book character.. and one cant say for certain what 'he' looks like.. I think people equate evil with ugly, (though I personally dont think my Beelz looks ugly.. dark and evil maybe, but I think he's pretty handsome lol)
.. and in all honesty the inverted cross and pentagram are just as big a cliche' misnomers as horns. :)

as a matter of fact they do equate evil with ugly . but i think it's the complete opposite, all evil is beautiful :)

I respectfully disagree.. A lot of 'evil' is represented in an alluring, sexualized manner, far from ugly, obscenely attractive even.
