I would give it a 10/10 if Luce used her iconic staff instead of a shotgun.

I don't know. This all feels kind of sitanic to me. I mean the name "luce" is just like a shorter version of the name lucifer and just like the character "luce" lucifer is often depicted holding a something sharp (a trident most often). One of lucifers many descriptions is "the angel of light" just like "luce" wich means light according to the article. Couple that with all the child molestations and all the sitanic imagery in the vatican (search for "the resurrection statue") etc. And the vaticans history for the occult just makes makes me think. But what do I know, maybe im just overthinking the whole situation.

Ah yes that famous arch-villain in the Christian Literary Universe, Sitan.

"Lucifer, in classical mythology, the morning star (i.e., the planet Venus at dawn); personified as a male figure bearing a torch, Lucifer had almost no legend, but in poetry he was often herald of the dawn. In Christian times Lucifer came to be regarded as the name of Satan before his fall."

It's just a retelling of Prometheus, as far as I see it. This is why Prometheus "gives" fire to man, aka. the sun rises (but we know now that we revolve around it and that it isn't some God living and dying through some re-birthing process). It is a metaphor for being enlightened, knowing, seeing, etc. Darkness being a representation of the unknown in most cultures. The Romans took/learned a lot from the Greeks. Btw, Prometheus means forethought or foresight and his brother is Epimetheus which means afterthought and he's the dimwitted fool, most likely a representation from after sunset. Almost all religions rely on this sort of duality which can be attributed to the day/night cycle. These people literally thought of the day and night as genuinely being two different worlds but it's just an illusion that is probably deeply baked into our subconscious from evolution.

Sorry to shoot an arrow but you shouldn't be living in fear because of ancient religions/societal control schemes. It's not healthy. Unless, of course, you believe the stars and planets are actually conscious Gods.

For eff’s sake, people. The Church speaks Italian. Luce means “light” in Italian. That’s all there is to it. Trying to tie this to some satanic meaning is the stretch of all stretches. It’s David Icke territory.

So many people have said this ITT already, you’d think that in Italian “turn on the light” means fondling Satan’s crotch.

Bruh. Luce is a Romance name derived from the Latin for 'light', lux. Are you saying all Lucys and Lukes are also Satanic?

Let's extend this bizarre logic further. Is Hikari also a satanic name?

What a stupid take.

Lucifer IS NOT ON THE BIBLE it's just a another of the many shitty mistranslations of the bible.

In isaiah 14, 12 the king james uses the word from the vulgata, lucifer... but turns out in latin (which is the language of the vulgata) lucifer means light of the dawn. Lucifer has never been the name of the beast.

Meanwhile, in the actual bible, the light is associated to god and benevolent celestial beings many, many times.

"Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”

Well I could point out my dad would say "Open the light" in English because that's how I think you say it in Italian but I get what you mean. (I'm sure we can get a different sexual double entendre from that.)

like i wrote earlier: maybe I was just overthinking the whole situation. Something about that character is just unsettling in my eyes, couple that with all the other stuff the vatican Church has been doing in the past (and to this day) made my mind and thoughts go to places they rearly go. I wrote that just before i went to sleep last might here in sweden. Im sorry if I offended anybody

They’re dirty fucks to be sure but eh this is just marketing imho!

Not offended sorry and I apologize to you if I came at you too aggressively 😓 it’s just that I saw the church doing some cute marketing that is having a reach and the conspiracy stuff triggered me a little sorry 😞

Bruh, you're just upset that the Roman Catholic church have a cute anime girl mascot.

Even if that is upsetting (it isn't), the Roman Catholic church have much bigger demons within them that you should be upset and worried about.
