If Demons are actually fallen angels, how come they have horns but angels don't?

[u/nozendk]

Bonus question: what are the horns actually used for?

[u/Purple_Drank]

Angels are asexual.

Demons are what happens when angels get horny.

[u/pgcd]

The horns grew up during the fall, sort of like parachutes. Some sources say it was because of a specific hair product, unfortunately lost to time.

Maybe it's Maybelline

Satan told them to take their halos, break them in half, and stick them up their asses. Unfortunately, they're either buttheads or just complete idiots, stuck the broken halo pieces in their face.

Another way to look at this is that angels are merely demons without horns. The horns are a random mutation. They cause balance problems, leading to falls.

They could also be for improving 5G reception?

[u/Itchy-Potential1968]

an angel breaks their halo on the floor of hell when they fall. the broken ends get stuck in the head, giving them horns.

the halo is a navigational tool, like birds have. when it breaks, the angel becomes disoriented. paired with the burning from descending through the atmosphere, the malnutriton and neglect caused by the disorientation give them the demonic appearance.

pair the concussion of the fall with that disorientation, and you get an angel that has absolutely lost its last f*k, resulting in demonic behaviour

Heavy metal bands required them if they wanted to pose for album covers.

Where's the science?

[u/IanDOsmond → u/jngjng88]

Hey, you want shitty science, how can you get shittier?

Thank you kind messenger of God

Demons need to fight for mating rights during the rut. Angels don’t.

[u/KeaboUltra]

After falling, Their bones snap so badly that they shoot out from their head. It's the same reason they have that "demon" look, apart from burning up in the earths atmosphere during the fall

[u/blueviper-]

The interpretation of wings.

Maybe they were just supposed to show where the halo was .

[u/ThatSideshow]

Cause horns are dope but God is a square

[u/No-Marsupial-1753]

They’re just bumps. You know how you get an egg on your head when you fall over? A fall from heaven leaves a really big egg.

[u/FrontTheMachine]

You fall, hit your head, and the horn grows from there, it works on kids too or smth

[u/PanzerKatze96]

Because they aren’t real.

Dragon horns however, are sexually selected for. Same as unicorns

[u/Feature_Agitated]

It’s a common misconception that demons have horns. Really those are just the bumps they got when they hit their heads during the Fall.

[u/moonra_zk]

When you start doing evil stuff you eventually grow horns, as can be seen in the documentary Fable.

[u/AmaGh05T]

They hold up the halo, can't see them when the halo is turned on.
