Why is the devil depicted with a tail that ends in a triangle / spade / point / etc.? Where is that idea originated (or copied) from? I have been looking online for hours, but best I've found is just opinion and speculation.

Catholic here
That depiction of satan was based on pan, the roman god of fertility, before christianity satan was a concept and not a person.

The trident, horns and spaded tail were symbols of power used by pagans.

The trident specially, was a weapon used by gladiators, originally a fishing instrument turned into a weapon used in the coliseum, used to depict him as the enemy of early christianity

Many modern works depict him like a guy in a business suit

Cause the modern corporative and political system reflects perfectly it's nature of dishonesty, pride and destruction

The Devil is seen with Hooves, Horns and a Tail because he is a Bull.

In the old world a Bull was a representation of a Lord. AKA: A Baal or Bel.

The Rulers were seen as Bulls.

The Trident is an identifying object. It is the same Trishula of Poseidon, Neptune or Enki.

Enki is the father of Marduk.

Marduk is the Bel or Baal of Babylon..

Marduks name means the Solar Calf. The Golden Calf Idol was a representation of him.

Marduk is the leader of Babylon and that is why the slaves Moses saved from Egypt were worshiping to an Idol of him.

That is why Moses was so mad, because his people were worshiping his enemy.

Marduk is the Adversary of the Lord of the Hebrews.

This is 100% confirmed by the bible and many other texts.

But there are none (0) depictions of Pan with a spaded, pointy, triangle or arrow-headed tail tip.

So the golden bull statue on wall street?

Bronze bull , excuse me.

There's actually reference to the Jews worshipping it.

The Charging Bull has been likened to the golden calf worshiped by the Israelites during their Exodus from Egypt. During Occupy Wall Street on multiple occasions an interfaith group of religious leaders led a procession of a golden calf figure that was modeled on the bull.[37][38] A large papier-mâché piñata made by Sebastian Errazuriz for a 2014 New York design festival was intended to be reminiscent of both the golden calf and Charging Bull.[39][40] Further comparisons to the golden calf have been made by Jewish and Christian religious commentators.[41][42

What the hell are you talking about? Can't you just read the damn thread? For fuck's sake... there are no golden (or any other material) bull statues of which their tail has a pointed, spear-like, arrow-head, sagittated or spaded tail.

Because pagans, christians started a smear campaign against the pagans making animalistic qualities the signs of "evil". This is why the devil is also known as "the beast" and why horns and tails are associated with evil.

No, there are no animals with spade-shaped, arrow-shaped, heart-shaped, non-haired tails. Closest match is some fish, but it's quite the stretch.

Peter Stormare was so good in that.
