Because it's interesting as hell. I'm Catholic, and clicking around in here there's practically nothing religious in it to me at all. No part of my own faith engages with Celsus Description of the Ophite Diagrams. But it sounds like something out of a Clive Barker book --- and, behold, it is like something out of a Clive Barker book:

    He is the Demiurge of this world, the God of Moses described in his creation    
    narrative. Of the Seven archontic demons, the first is lion-shaped; the second 
    is a bull; the third is amphibious and hisses horribly; the fourth is in the 
    form of an eagle ; the fifth has the appearance of a bear, the sixth, that of 
    a dog ; and the seventh, that of an ass named Thaphabaoth or Onoel.

This is like a weird parallel of Greek mythology. But it's got a little extra charge because it ostensibly plugs into a modern religion. Super fascinating.
