Faith-confidence in what we hope for (Hebrews 11)
I used to read some stuff by Bertrand Russell when I was younger (and an atheist, but trying to understand...). He was a good writer, but -- that's about it. I don't look into anything that claims satanic guidance or help. So have a nice day, bye for now.As an atheist, I don’t claim to be a Christian.
Like Bertrand Russell, I tend to pick and choose, I suppose.
You could, of course, if you liked, say that there was a superior deity who gave orders to the God who made this world, or could take up the line that some of the gnostics took up—a line which I often thought was a very plausible one—that as a matter of fact this world that we know was made by the devil at a moment when God was not looking. There is a good deal to be said for that, and I am not concerned to refute it.

"Gracias a diós y nuestro señor salvador, fue el diablo el que me enseñó a tocar violin."
"Thanks to God and our Lord Savior, it was the Devil who taught me how to play the violin"
