Who is the devil really?

[tripwire]

for this thread, let us limit to the religious devil/satan. and for the sake of discussion, let us assume that he exists.

IMO, there is no one alive in this planet can prove that satan is and isn't true. We all heard from different walks of life - different versions, different faces, different interpretations... we all brand this and that. How about thinking something that is no one will expect like... Good is Bad and Bad is Good. This way there is no commotion on what does an entity look like.

Yes Good is Bad and Bad is Good are in the realm of RELATIVITY!

I want to dissect the different religious POV of the devil/Satan and see if any makes sense.

That doesn't give anyone's advantage though because each has it's own opinion. If I were to ask you, have you seen satan/devil/lucifer/demon...? If you say, yes, then that only proves that your beliefs cater to your own religious affiliations. To be honest, I have not seen anyone of them but we were told since that satan exists yet we just have to believe that he exists without asking if it's really there in the first place.

For me, there is good and bad. If you did something bad but for the goodness of mankind, would that be evil? and you did something good but it turn it was bad, would that be good or evil? Practical acceptance lang... nothing more. labeling certain things that make up like them is just plain wrong because no on in this planet ever seen one.

that's my pov btw.

^ no I haven't seen and I don't believe in the irrational.
You have a point about being told that Satan exists and that we should believe it.

So for those who believe that Satan exists, kindly share what his nature is. Is he a being? A concept? A state?

The image of Satan or the Devil is just a PIGMENT OF YOUR IMAGINATION!
