::::No, fallen angels seem to be quite different things. All fallen angles may be demons, but not all demons are fallen angels. And Godman was right, Dante's Inferno (Not a book, but the first third of a poetic trilogy) popularised the circles of hell concept. Im going to quickly rough out some stub sections here that can be used as a guide to improve the article. - [[User:Suricou|Suricou]]

==Demons and angels==
Cut from intro:
:Demons are not to be confused with [[fallen angels]] or the [[Devil]], which are similar creatures but not wholly the same.
If they are not fallen angels, then did the pre-exist the fall? Who created them? Or did the exist from "the beginning" along side of God?
We should not make such a definite pronouncement - especially under the guise of removing confusion. Better to say '''who''' promotes this distinction between demons and angels.
Are there any religions which say that angels can "fall"? If so, which ones? --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 09:35, 21 May 2007 (EDT)
