Satan isn't even evil. Satan's whole crime is refusing to be subservient to the creator THAT GAVE HIM HIS PRIDE WHEN HE MADE HIM. And Satan isn't even WRONG. It's not like God was doing a good job. His creation is CONSTANTLY going off the rails.

I refuse to think badly of someone whose only crime is calling out a boss's bullshit and thinking he could do a better job.

Also Satan has canonically only killed Job's children when God gave him express permission to, God has canonically killed thousands of people

Directly. Let's not forget how many he's killed through mismanagement.

And just like any other bad manager, it's always "Look, don't criticize me. I'm in charge, and you don't know all the details."

Deluge!

Better yet, his followers literally blame everything wrong on the enforcer of his will

God has canonically killed thousands of people

It's over 2 million even going just by numbers listed in the bible, with estimates around 24 million total.

Satan killed 10.

God is also guilty of torturing and murdering literally every animal but two of each species.

And commanding genocide and rape of young girls re Midyan. Yeah, he's definitely evil

[–] EldritchFeminity@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 week ago

Yeah, isn't the whole reason that God considers humanity to be above the angels is because we have free will and they don't?

This means that everything they do is on God's orders, so either Satan was following orders and still is, or he somehow gained free will and led a revolt against the master who enslaved his entire race when He created them.

Either way, not evil.

And the only crime the serpent did was tempt Eve with knowledge.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

the spreading of knowledge can never be a crime nor a sin

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 17 points 1 week ago

Satan was just the first union organizer. His crimes were demanding workers' rights for the angels. That god character is just another asshole, out of touch CEO.

Funny how christians not only cant spot the antichrist right in their face, but they elected him to rule over them. Take what they call deadly sins and commandment, trump as turned it into an art of living.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

I would've gone with dumb instead.

Isn’t the antichrist suppose to be hot as fuck?

Or is that just Lucifer and the apple fell a bit far from the tree?
