"Demon servants" takes you down a whole new path doesn't it?

The descriptor at Wake Forest ('demon Deacons') has from the beginning employed Merriam-Webster's definition 4.

07-coffee3

An enthusiastic servant would be one worth having.

By that definition, you'd hope that most of your Baptist deacons in churches are "demon" deacons (and I've known some that are).
