I won't call you a conspiracy theorist but the name Lucifer goes back hundreds of years before its use in the Bible and isn't even the original name for the devil. Lucifer was originally the Latin (i.e. Roman) name for Venus, the morning star. It was later used (in the middle ages) as the English representation of the original (similar meaning but very different pronunciation) Hebrew name of the devil, as well as being the root word for things like lucid, elucidate, lucidity, lucite, all of which relate to light.
It was used to describe this glowing protein because that's how you say light maker or light bringer in Latin. Most medical terms derive from Latin.
Are we still conspiracy theorists for talking about Luciferase and that it glows/bioluminescence?
