Demon

That's because most of the Christian demonology has its roots in Persian demonology. There's really no evidence to this, but I suspect that the three kings that visited Christ(believed to be magi priests)came along with a lot more than just frankincense, gold and myrrh...lol

Wouldn't surprise me. The entire Hebrew culture was deeply influenced by Persian mysticism, as was only natural given that they were conquered and whatnot. There's recent debate that the Hebrew culture too was polytheistic, adapting to monotheism with the rule of King David, or around that era, perhaps again with the influence of Persian mysticism.

The star of David, which ofcourse was adapted by every second culture to represent various things, is a dead give away. The persian magi were astrologers. Perhaps even the founders of astrology as we know it today.

As to my original point, which was apparently overridden by claims that I was wrong: Yes, the word demon is older than Christianity (though not older than Judaism, which no one seemed to register). However, many of the spells that exist to summon them are based around the demons of Christian or Hebrew tradition, which could well be dangerous. I am not here to convert anyone, but I will laugh at those who believe that those kind of demons at least are not dangerous. And, if you mean deity, say deity. If you mean daimon or daemon, say that. Don't call it a demon if you are going to attack anyone who assumes that a demon is what you mean.

Some demons are good some are bad and some are in the middle. Not all of them are evil.

I sincerely hope this doesn't come across as rude, but: how do you know? Are there any sources that show demons as even simply morally ambivalent, let alone good?
