In case you are posting back to my post please note he has "before god" written there. And that is what I am having trouble with.........

Sorry Vapirehunter42, that statement I made was only what I could recall from a book somewhere, i didnt know for sure, but I found the book, "Drawing and painting fantasy beasts", It had the leviathan in it and some information and what it says, now I have checked it again is.. " the leviathan is a primordial creature that has existed since pre-Old testament times and supposedly lived long before God created Earth."
I had previously known nothing about the leviathan and had remebered this statement briefly, thats all. Sorry if I messed anyones ideas up with my own mistake :oops:
oh, and im a she Vampirehunter42... :lol: (My fault, I chose a weird name, would change it if i could... :oops: )

I'm with Draconic_Chronicler on Dragons being Seraphim. So therefore Satan isn't a Dragon, as Satan was a Cherubim.

Given that the Bible is the biggest storage system for fallacies and metaphors ever created, it's rather surprising to me that biblical dragons would be anything different from the psychological dragons of Carl Sagan's "Dragons of Eden". Dragons are everything that people back then feared, and it's not surprising that something that they wanted to be viewed as evil would culminate in being represented as such.
