why does everyone always associate satan with heavy metal

for all we know satan could like smooth jazz

[trumpet-jesus]

Satan likes jazz Saxophones are in jazz SAXOPHONES = SATAN WAKE UP AMERICA

[icebrrg2000-blog]

Yeah but like trumpets are in jazz too

[realdonaldtrumpet-blog]

But Saxophones begin with an S. Know what else begins with an S? Satan. I rest my case.

[trumpet-jesus]

Saxophones 123456789. 9 letters. 9÷3 is 3. There are 2 parts to the saxophone. 3×2 is 6. My jazz band consists of 3 types of saxophones. 6 6 6. 666= Satan’s number. Saxophones = satan

[realdonaldtrumpet-blog]

I think you’re on to something here. I support this.

[saxophonejesus]

@realdonaldtrumpet satans true name is lucifer @trumpet-jesus the number 666 actually has literally nothing to do with lucifer You’re barking up the wrong tree Some actual facts about lucifer: rebellious, cold, arrogant, stubborn, loveless, tempter, no wings, eternal pain in the ass I think we all know who this really is…

[tuba--god]

Lucifer, the morningstar, satan, I could go on and on but the fallen angel of hell has many more names. He was cast out of heaven to rule over the tortured souls of hell, much like the saxophones were cast out of orchestra to rule over jazz band…

SAXOPHONES=SATAN=DEATH
