What the hell?!
No, nobody here in this thread actually believes that. I mean, we got the resident Messianic Jew who believes Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are bullshit because they adopted pagan traditions, but no.

There's many ways to interpret Satan...
In Job, for instance, he isn't seen as an adversary of God but an adversary against humanity; kind of like a prosecutor who is telling God that we're evil and we don't deserve any mercy.
