Or to put it even another way:
A demiurge is a god who presents himself as The God. He's yet he is the 
creator of the world, worshipping him does not lead to 
salvation/enlightenment.
The Antichrist (or in some cases, no doubt, an antichrist) is a MAN who 
presents himself as God.

Obviously, the very creation of Pas as an object of worship would be 
something an antichrist would do.
But Typhon *did* create the Whorl. He is never overthrown from his 
creation. In fact, Silk and Auk help to place him back on his throne.

So Typhon/Pas (and I heard Wolfe say last September that they are 
absolutely equivalent) is a demiurge not The Antichrist of the New 
Testament.
