They're far more edible than the Babylonian "El" god's messengers, (Gabri-el, and Rapha-el, also Micha-el, Uri-el).
The Fettuccine and the Linguine worship pretty close up to the Divine Colander.
Funny, Lucifer doesn't have the -el.
Very (seriously) interesting comment.
"Ante luciferum, genuite" (Latin - Isaiah ... "before the daystar, I have begotten thee") ... the name came from a reference to the "daystar", (and the phrase is, or was, used in the Roman Christmas liturgy.)
In Latin, the "light-bringer" (ie preceded the sun rise), ie Venus, was the lightbringer, and "fell from heaven" occasionally when it was not visible.
There is also a history of when the word "Lucifer" was mis-translated, which is log and boring. So yes, Lucifer is not one of the Babylonian messengers of the god El Elyon, but the origins of the word and when it was used as a name are pretty well known and understood.

Ah, mythology is fun to play. I called my daughter "sofia", you should know what that means. It would be odd to name her Lucifer, albeit at age 3, she makes me feel otherwise.

Yep.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

If you are so lucky as to be of truest and yet still ever truer faith of FSM, then you are the truest truth and not some moldy book. The divine Spaghetti monster truly empowers, unlike your Jesus, who subjugates by withholding and doling out in miserly quantities that you must then purchase with your soul.
PS. Although in fairness to Jesus, in some cases, such as Drich's, the soul in question is certainly an extremely price even for the nothing that it purchsed.
where in your FSM bible does it the FSM turer truths shall supersede direct quotes from the FSM himself? As that is what your truthier truths are doing. you are often in direct contradiction with the FSM.
Now if you can indeed be in conflict with the FSM then who's to say you are not a false FSM prophet? List your reason here:
Now why shouldn't that reason apply to me as well? perhaps I too can or am a FSM prophet who in turn finds the truther truth in the FSM bible as the FSM originally provided and is written down so we know the truth of the FSM, and not some hertical false prophet only claiming to be of the fsm. because again with out the authority of the writeen word of the FSM how do we know a true truth is not some greater lie created by a non believer to break the faith of those who choose to worship the FSM..
For example some would say Christianity is a truer truth and as a result would break the faith of a fsm follower, like your truer truth how do you purpose without the fsm bible can we know the truer fsm truth over another truer truth? after all like christianity your truer truth is also in direct conflict with the FSM bible..
Does that mean you are a christian trying to secretly convert FSM believers? again so why does your truth not comply with how the FSM bible defines truth?
also you do know the church has already been down this road like 1800 years ago right? So what you think is cute new and fresh is a game of history to me. and if you keep going you might even learn more about the church than you ever intended.

At work.
I must sadly admit that I find Drich's 'Flak wall' type of replies nigh incomprehensible to parse most of ths time.
Sorry Drich.

Righto. But since you are the master of canon why does angel lucifer doesn't have a name ending with -el, like raphael gabriel or michael.

Because El is a God tatoo
Meaning of God.
Lucifer is not 'of God.'
