Heh. Some might argue that Hellspeak must have been designed to allow such things, given the psychological and emotional structure of the Fallen. However, the human concept of "bisociation" (usually defined as the subject of discussion having two or more internally consistent but mutually incompatible frameworks) may be rather dangerous to the Angelic mind, as it implies that one thing can be two things at the same time; for example, any question of morals/ethics that humans might describe as "grey" or "hazy". I don't speak Angelic, but it would be interesting to discuss whether or not the sentence "He did the correct thing for the incorrect reason" could be stated in Angelic.
Still, one mortal commentator proclaimed "Get thee behind me, Satan" to be one of the Son's better puns, if one looks at it in the proper perspective.
