'Don't you know there aint no devil
That's just God when he's drunk'
HolyGod is right, in the bible and in early Christian theology the devil (Satan, Lucifer, whatever) is basically God's enforcer and the angel in charge of the damned. Very much part of team.
It was only much later that they combined some characteristics of pagan gods they were superceding and made him the Great Enemy. Helped 'explain' the problem of evil.
'Tell me, wise priest, if God is all powerful and wholly good why is there evil?'
'Because of the big scary bogey-man who is going to get you if you keep asking questions. Also, something to do with Free Will, but we'll get back to you on that. And women, obviously.' |

Does Satan still room with the Tooth Fairy and that non-nice individual Jack Frost? |

Poor old satan!
Having gone nearly bald, his last remaining hair has begun to split. (Must be all that dry heat) |

"Okay folks, it's now 9:30 and the time you've all been waiting so patiently for: revealing the true identity of Satan. Can I get a drum role please? Heh-heh, just kidding... get this envelope open... and the answer is: Martin Brewer, of 826 Larch Crescent. I'll repeat that in case any of you would like to throw rocks at his house or anything..." |

It should read, 'how well do you know Stan'. Stanley Tucci was the guest lecturer. |

The enemy of mankind is easy to recognize, it's an evil spirit that hates mankind and does everything it can to divide ourselves amongst ourselves, and wedge gaps open between us to make them chasms. It's goal is to see us destroy ourselves, and urges us to live by hate, mockery, selfishness, prejudiness, haughtiness, and all manner of other sinful ways. But it's foolish to live by it because it leads to darkness and doom.
Living by the holy spirit, however, leads to light and life. Striving to live a life of love, joy, kindness, faithfulness, self control, hope, peace is a great way to have that evil spirit flee from you. It is afraid of the light. Be always on guard though, because it prowls like a ravenous beast, always looking for something to devour. It hates us, and wants us all to die..
There ya go! |

"He just puts on the mask when he feels like being a douche."
Have you read the bible? Go does all the horrible s.hit in the bible and he never hides. Satan doesn't really do anything. He has become big since, but plays very little part in the bible. |

They probably did say it was Obama, but if I were running that seminar, I would say it's none other than God himself. No mask necessary. Kills everyone and their children when they criticize him, says a child born of rape is the mother's responsibility, can't wait to drop us into Hell for eternity for figuring out his puzzle of salvation, and tells everyone that he's the right one. |

So, what was the answer? This was on the 4th, so did they unmask satin? Let me guess, it turns out that satin is really god. He just puts on the mask when he feels like being a douche. |
