pegusus123456 07/24/20 5:58:21 AM #5:	Sictis posted... uh, examples? Supernatural does it. A lot of angels call humans "mud monkeys." I imagine any kind of fiction which has a more cynical take on Christian mythology with angels thinking themselves superior would use "monkeys" as a go-to insult for humans. --- https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT So?

nemu 07/24/20 6:53:51 AM #8:	Just the idea that they are independent higher beings with human-like emotions, so they look down on lesser beings. While the literal monkey comparison isnt something I see, arrogant angels that look down on humanity or scorn then for being the Gods chosen seems to be a common trope. <cite>nemu posted [p:942519002] in Where did ...
