| | Hierarchy of demons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | This was presumably due to the division of angels in hierarchies or choirs taken from Judaism (see angelology), and as demons were angels before, their organisation had to be similar. | | | Other hierarchies mention physicians, superintendents, demons in charge of keeping the fire of Hell lit, etc. The rest of the demons were divided in legions. | | | Soon this division took another sense, and nobility titles were granted to demons as if they were part of an earthly monarchy. |

| | Angels and Demons |
| | According to the Scripture, demons are fallen angels but their names often reveal that they derive from pre-christian Gods demonized by the early fathers of the Church. | | | If some demons are obviously free to propagate evil in the world, there are Scriptures which indicate that a portion of the evil angels are currently restrained in a type of spiritual prison. | | | The modern view of demons, among those who believe demons in the Christian sense to exist, is that demons are usually invisible but are capable of revealing their forms at their pleasure. |

| | The Dreo are demons born of the earth and consist of two different groups: the dybbuk and the infernus demons. | | | Viau demons so perfectly resemble the gargoyles that adorned human cathedrals for ages that it is often believed that they are the actual thing come to life; demons of the Viau breed even are said to possess a body of animated stone. | | | The Atreu are cat-like demons that were formerly revered by humans in ancient times as gods, but ever since their banishment into the Demon Realm seeming eons earlier, they have all but lost their 'godly' status. |

| | But the demons are not in a hierarchy, which is defined as a holy principality; for they are void of all holiness. | | | Reply to Objection 2: If we consider the ordering of the demons on the part of God Who orders them, it is sacred; for He uses the demons for Himself; but on the part of the demons' will it is not a sacred thing, because they abuse their nature for evil. | | | This revelation, if compared to the angelic revealers, can be called an enlightenment, forasmuch as they direct it to God; but it is not an enlightenment on the part of the demons, for these do not direct it to God; but to the fulfilment of their own wickedness. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Demonology |
| | Perhaps the first fact that strikes one who approaches the study of this subject is the astonishing universality and antiquity of demonology, of some belief in the existence of demons or evil spirits, and of a consequent recourse to incantations or other magical practices. | | | The writer gives a very full account of the mysterious episode of Genesis, vi, 2, which, in common with so many others, he takes to be the origin of the demons who were in his view, the offspring of the supposed union of the angels of God and the daughters of men. | | | Learned men marvelled at the credulity of their fathers, with their faith in ghosts, and demons, and black magic, but felt it impossible to take any serious interest in the subject in their age of enlightenment. |
