Naco you could make me become a tibialoconcupiscent if you added the garter belt; but a renifleur I doubt. Especially if was soiled panties.

Just because I used a different word with the same meaning does not mean I verbigerate. But as of today I do admit to being a:

genocide is -ciding a -genus (a group or family, bearing similar traits) and doesn't have to be carried out by a gov't. Should you be so twisted, you can do it at home. The war crime, incidentaly, only speaks to intent.
Luciferous, the capitialization threw me off. You're a trixy lil squirrel. Luciferous is merely to illuminate though. I used to know that off the top of my head, it's an SAT word.
Logolepsy be the new word.

allegorical is a bit tricky to define. Having a greater, secondary meaning, a symbolic representation or lets see what dictionary says...the expression by means of symbolic fictional figures and actions of truths or generalizations about human existence (though that's just allegory so allegorical would be of or relating to said expression)

luciferous is related to lucifer being the light bearing angel before he got all tossed out for having an opinion. Nacho, it is not my nature to contradict a lady but the word Lucifer only appears once in the Bible and that is Isaiah 14:12 and is comparing the King of Babylon to the "morning star" or planet Venus. His rule had been the brightest among any of the kingdoms like the morning star was the brightest in the sky but he was now being cut down or fallen.

King of Babylon to the "morning star" or planet Venus In fact, the kingdom of Babylon was frequently called the morning star, so the whole thing could be a matter of multiple entendres creating confusion. He has however become a character within Christian mythology with rather detailed history in Paradise Lost (by Milton), amongst other sources.
Speaking of Milton, the new word is... serried

Christian theologians do not use Lucifer as one of the “evil ones” many names because it is Biblically linked to him. I agree that many others have come to believe Lucifer to be the “fallen angel” because of non-Biblical writings.

regading your quote swyeter, is that "evil ones'" or evil one's", doesn't make a big difference either way, just curious.
I'mma assume that means blood sucking, subsisting on blood. Checking now... I was right!

I was referring to the Christian theology belief of an "evil one" so it should have been a possessive or ~ 's. Thanks.
