How demonfire works:
When our good priests stand up and hold up a cross and scream "YOU WILL BURN IN HELL IF YOU DO NOT STOP TOUCHING YOURSELF!" we laugh. When a Theran priest stands up and does that, we are struck with a fear so terrifying, our body is wracked with pain. This is called "demonfire."
Similarly, when a rocker sings a lyric about "YOU WILL BURN IN HELL AND ROT AND WE DANCED ALL NIGHT LONG YEAAHHHH BABY!" we jump up and down and scream "YEAH BURN BABY YEAH" But, in Thera, a huge ball of flame would suddenly appear out of nowhere and roast all of us into crispy critters, and that would be bad.
Priests/Rockstars in real life: No physical impact.

ie. Enjoy the game, Asihara. It makes sense.
