Uh, yeah so answer. I don't think there is anything bad about ol' Mr. Devil, apart from the fact that he hates God, but so do I, so...?

Satan is a myth. There is no Satan or demons.

He's much more charismatic than God, that's for sure.

The Grey Fox
I know he's not real, I'm just speculating on if he was.

And closer to being human; he loves sex and alcohol.

Are you stupid? I can't prove a negative, no one can. Can you prove empirically that Satan does exist? Wait, don't answer that question, I really don't care.

The Grey Fox
Neither do I!!!

soo, Satan allows us sex, beer and offers gifts wheras God gives us..........burning Hells unless we lay down on our knees, get rid of our possessions and pray to him...how wonderful and even if we do that we get glowing streets of a angelic place where we can happily stroll around without any TV, Sex, Beer, the rest of enjoyment

if they excisted i know the one i would prefer..and no its not god

The Grey Fox
GO SATAN MAN ABOVE ME!! MY THREAD RULES!

I'll just assume you're all in the age range of 10-16 years old, shall I.

Satan/Devil has theologically always been a personification of all things unfavourable, such as poverty, suffering, plague, death...etc.

It is not supposed to be a person, jsut as God is a personification of all things which are good.

But I am guessing theology is far too complex for you in philosophical point of view.

depends what Comic book your thinking of, i think if its Marval they use mephisto or sumfin as the Devil and ime not sure about their god

BIIIIIIIIIIIIID
well ask god. i see it like this. God is an employer and satan is an employee. God fired satan. If you ask god then god will certainly say all the bad things he has done.

If you ask satan about god. Satan will say that God is a bad employer, and how unfair he is. All satan ask is a promotion from god. But god turned it down.

chillmeistergen
God's a tyrant.

Ha-Satan is only doing Gods will as said in the Book of Jobs.

Putting aside the question of whether he exists: does it make you a better person to believe Satan exists? Or is it better to deny his existence?

Cause, I mean, you really can't know one way or the other, but which is better to believe?

It has been speculated that Satan actually isnt supposed to be evil. Satan is just another God, see Gnostic Christanity.

Slightly OT but ive noticed that Satan has been associated with some attributes of Norse gods. The concept of selling your soul seems to come from making a oact with Odin and the word Hell is the name of the Norse Godess of Death. Hell in the Bible is calleg Gehanna.

The Fallen angels in the book of Enoch is also a retelling of a Sumerian myth.

Really the issue of the Satan being evil seems to be something we have just been taught.

The Grey Fox
That's what I was thinking, except you've done more research *bows to Alfiem*

Their interesting facts you have there

The Grey Fox
Looks like The Bible just stole a load of old stories!

He doesn't take it out on anyone, though. He's just down there in Hell, being happy.
