She does have a valid point.
IIRC, the original depictions of a goat-headed “Devil” appearing in Christian art, were a perversion of the pagan/druidic deity called the Forest Lord, who was a bit more of a buck with antlers half-man, and one of the highest male gods in their nature-worshiping religion. Therefor his image got borrowed to stand in for a “master of evil” character to further demonize non-Christians and cast them as “devil-worshipers” and “witches” in the eyes of the public… you know, so the public would be cool with having people who hadn’t committed any crimes tied to posts and set on fire for public entertainment.
We think of horned demons as a symbol of evil because the Church taught us to.
Actually that was the Lord of the Hunt Cerrunos. The one with the goat head was Baphomet. I don’t know everything about Pagans, but I have been one since 1989, so I do know a lot. I’m Eclectic Wiccan, and my personal deities are Hephaestus and the Lady Ghisallo. Heph and I both were Makers have a bum leg each, and when the Catholics were rearranging the deck chairs on their titanic they put an old pre-Roman mountain goddess in charge of cyclists while claiming her as another incarnation of Mary. You can see in my Grav that I used to ride, lots.
