Azazel

"*I may not be as close to Him as other angels are but I am an angel of the Lord's. And I know a lot more about God than any younger angel. He won't lift a finger for any you. He merely stands by and watches. You've been praying for Him to save all of you and what has He done? Your sanctuary continues to be defenseless and still He does nothing.*"
