Exactly. Thats a fact. Misconcieved. A force of good made to be bad because he carries out punishments.

Why is Satan bad?
Because he spends all of his time trying to appease greedy children, with nothing but lists and lists of things people want, ad nauseam......no gratitude...........year after year.... century after century without end! Frankly it's a tired run. oh. that would be Santa ![]() my mistake. Or was that God? ![]()

Because of the smear campaigns against Satan by Christians.

I wouldn't say that Christians are automatically more trustworthy than non-Christians. Christians still have not shed their sinful nature.
In Christianity, Satan is considered "bad" because he is the father of lies and promotes self-ego and the separation from God. Satan represents deception and the opposite of truth, which I think most people would consider bad. Basically, he is the biggest con-artist of all.

Lets say I am a general of an army of 2,000 men.
I train them to fight to win. Problem is, is that in peace time, there is no enemy to fight to test the effectiveness of my fighting men. OK, I say, I will have war games, and I will make me an army of men that will be the opposition. Now I have become a friend to my regular army and a friend to the opposing army, of which I am both their general. Satan is an Adversary, the opposer, or everything God is not. Satan said, according to the bible: Gen 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. Now that we know the game plan, let the game start. But to answer your question, evil is not something we don't want to do or be associated with, so Satan gets a bad rap. If you can exercises love, compassion and no regard to condemning anyone, then I'd say truck on. I understand that the world and all its lusts is Satan, rather than an entity. The world is our present domain, and if we allow it, it will destroy us. So, we need something to help us out against that which is the norm, which would destroy us. But the whole institution of the Adversary, has God for its general. Religion can be evil as it has shown to be, but not all religion is. Similarly, Satanist can also be evil, but not all are. Its your choice. Peace>>>AJ

Quote:
And asides from the story of Job, name an instance where the Bible claims Satan is directly responsible for lies and deception. Satan was being honest in the garden of Eden, for the fruit did indeed open the eyes of mankind.
