A Short Reflection On Demons

I thought I would momentarily reflect upon the nature of demons and why I personally do not believe that they can be classified as good. Let’s first consider the association between demons and evil. Their relationship between demons, hell and Lucifer is unwavering. It is safe to say that there cannot be such a relationship between all three entities in the absence of evil. My reasoning for this is through the fact that a demon exists for reasons of pure evil, and that should such a demon have any association with goodness, then a demon would not be existing as itself. For the demon to become or “turn” good they are in essence renouncing their demonic properties and therefore can no longer be seen as having a demonic nature. So essentially I believe that for a demon to exist as wholly or partially good would require a reclassification of being. Through this reclassification we would no longer consider the demon as possessing demonic properties or relationships and therefore call a demon a demon.
