Bring the facts baby!\n\nI say Satan and god is one in the same. Hades: the GOD of the underworld. \n\nChristian God: the god of the underworld with the "mask" of good. Falsnes drips of the lips of christians, so it must be true!\n\nSatan = God?

Of course.\n\n'God is actually Satan.  This is clear when one compares the Bible's two verses of David's ill fated census story.  The II Samuel version begins, "...the anger of the Lord burned against Isreal, and He incited David...." while the I Chronicles version begins, "Satan rose up against Israel, and incited David ..."\n\nAlso, of note: God's name is "Jealous." Exodus 34:14

IN THAT case we need to agree in as to what a god is to you. Here are the definitions of  God, and A god: \nA being conceived as the perfect, omnipotent, omniscient originator and ruler of the universe, the principal object of faith and worship in monotheistic religions.\nThe force, effect, or a manifestation or aspect of this being.\nA being of supernatural powers or attributes, believed in and worshiped by a people, especially a male deity thought to control some part of nature or reality.\nAn image of a supernatural being; an idol.\nOne that is worshiped, idealized, or followed: Money was their god.\nA very handsome man.\nA powerful ruler or despot.\n   Notice that i said God and a god, ince you mentioned christianity, then we need to talk about God, because Christianity does not praise gods, But "God" .Pay attention to the 1st definition. That is the one that applies to Chritianity, because they praise it, But they do not praise satan. Satan is just something they dont want to deal with. A god is something you worship, it is not something you detest.

Definitely, Hell is very real. Why do you think there is hate and sin in the world now. Satan is trying to gain as many followers as he can before Jesus comes again. Satan (AKA Lucifer) was "booted" out of heaven when God realized that Lucifer (his favorite angel at that time) wanted to be God because Lucifer was jealous of God.

Hades is the Greek god of the Underworld; his Roman counterpart is Pluto.  Do not associate Hades with the devil, since he's not inherently evil.  In the beginning there were three realms: the earth, the water, and the underworld.  The three original gods - Zeus/Jupiter, Poseidon/Neptune, and Hades/Pluto - each became god of one of these realms.

According to Jewish belief Satan is an angel, he was never thrown out of heaven and is not in competition with "God". According to Judaism Satan does the job assigned to him by "God", has no free will of his own and works for the ultimate benefit of humans by strengthening their faith and fortitude through adversity and temptation. Satan is not a bad guy, according to Judaism. \n\nAnd Judaism should be the authority on the subject.\n\nIf you're interested in a good book on the subject, read "The Devil: A Biography" by Peter Stanford. He describes how Satan went from an angelic messenger of God's to the villainous demon created by the Christian church to scare people to conversion.\n\nIt's incredible to me how ignorant Christians are on the subject of Satan.\n\nFrom the site http://www.faqs.org/faqs/judaism/FAQ/06-Jewish-Thought/section-36.html\n\n<The word satan means challenger. With the leading ha- to make haSatan, it refers to /the/ challenger. This describes Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. Satan works for G-d. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it can be a meaningful choice. Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered overly polytheistic--you are setting up the devil to be a god or demigod.>

In Greek mythology Hades was the god of the underworld. Going to him often meant finding out whether you spent eternity in a beautiful green valley or rotting in an underground 'hell' that we in modern times tend to think of as Hell.

Hades is the lord of the dead and ruler of the nether world, which is referred to as the domain of Hades or, by transference, as Hades alone. He is the son of Cronus and Rhea. When the three sons of Cronus divided the world among each other, Hades was given the underworld, while his brothers Zeus and Poseidon took the upperworld and the sea respectively. For a while Hades ruled the underworld together with Persephone, whom he had abducted from the upperworld, but Zeus ordered him to release Persephone back into the care of her mother Demeter. However, before she left he gave her a pomegranate and when she ate of it, it bound her to the underworld forever. \n\nmore info here: http://www.pantheon.org/articles/h/hades.html

Satan is the prince of the power of the air (Eph.2:2 below).  Satan is the “god” (2 Cor.4:4 below) of this present evil world (Gal.1:4 below).\n\n2 Cor.4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.\n\nGal.1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:\n\nEph.2:2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:\n\n\n\n\nPat (ndbpsa ©)

The question you asked is one of the greatest problem for monotheists... For starters Satan is never mentioned anywhere in the bible as the evil devilish character everyone imagines.  that idea was created to scare people into converting.  \n\nThe problem with evil is that a roman catholic believes that God is all createing and perfectly good.  Its clear that Evil does exist in this world.  So how can a God that is perfectly good be responseible for evil?  The answer lies in our free will.  If god did not give us the option to choose to be good then we would simply be his puppets.  And a puppet master god is not one that is worth worshiping anyways.  \n\nGod never intended for so much evil to be in this world.  Orginaly in the Garden of Eden there was no evil and man and God enjoyed a loveing relationship.  Then when man commited the orginal sin of eating the apple that will make one like God Evil arose.  The original sin is a representation of Man striveing for power over love of god and this is the root of all evil.  So my answer in a nut shell is God made man and gave us free will, which we used to create evil...

Ok, the important thing to understand here, as many people have shown they obviously DON'T understand, is that Satanists (please capitalize it; it's a proper term for someone of a valid religion, just like Christians) DO NOT worship the Christian quasi-deity of the same name. This is why I feel Satanists are the least understood and most prosecuted for false reasons in the world today.\n\nPeople usually confuse true Satanism with some form of pseudo-Satanism (see the second link). True Satanism is called religious Satanism (see the third link), and has no affiliation with devil worship, human or animal sacrifice (see the fifth link), and is not a cult (among other false speculations).\n\nPlease search though the following links to find information about Satanism that is researched, factual, and NONBIASED.

The two are mutually exclusive.  Atheism means not believing in an gods or deities.  Satanism (the Christian view) is believing in both God and the devil, and worshiping the latter.  If you're talking about the nutty Church of Satan people, its sort of a grey area.  They believe in evil, sometimes in the form of the devil, but not in God.  But there only a dozen or so of those guys.

Satan isn't really one single being in the bible. Like black_hole_gravity said, it means "adversary" and it's more of a title than a name. Although Lucifer still is a villain in christian mythology. He did rebel against god in the story.

That means one God is true, but two isn't. That there's only one.\n\nBut I don't believe that. :(
