I often refer to my Mother-in-law as Satan. Can the Devil sue me for defamation of character?

As the Devil's Advocate, I hereby grant you limited privelege to use the Unholy Name "Satan" to describe your inlaws to the extent that:\n1) you make no claim to the name Satan as your own original intellectual property and\n2) you do not intend to profit or otherwise benefit from Satan's name without first selling your soul to him\n\nPlease continue- she sounds like such a nice lady.

You could probably sue for defamation of character and slander. The argument for defamamtion of character would be that these lies have been used to hurt you and defame you in public which has obstructed you in either daily life or in some economic capacity, such as getting hired or something. Slander would say that she has ruined your name and that everything that was written was a lie. Usually you wouldn't want to, though, because going to court is a very big hassle that costs time and money, and it may just be that nobody really pays attention to what she's saying anyway! If you want to avoid people thinking that those lies were really true, you could tell your friends and post on YOUR site that this is the onyl site that you have written and the only one that is completely true.

If this person used your real name and/or address, and said malicious untrue things about you, I think you have a pretty good case for defamation (libel). \nI say, go for it.\n\nRead this article for more information:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libel

Looking at your picture I can see that the devil made you do it. Explain to your husband that you want to have another exorcism and he'll probably give you second chance.

Satan means adversary....it is a label or title, not a name

I believe it is wrong to taunt Satan.  Jude 1:8-9 states:\n\n8 Yet these false teachers, who claim authority from their dreams, live immoral lives, defy authority, and scoff at the power of the glorious ones.* 9 But even Michael, one of the mightiest of the angels, did not dare accuse Satan of blasphemy, but simply said, "The Lord rebuke you." (This took place when Michael was arguing with Satan about Moses' body.)\n\nTo taunt satan is to attempt to engage him in your own strength.  The Lord has power over the evil ones, not us.  The  power we have over him is given to us through Christ.  Is any human more powerful than Michael the archangel?

hard to say. do it unless your mother in law is a real woman hitler as you call her. \nbut if you've already had disputes before, i'd say you don't. cuz what is a life of hell with more money in your pocket? just a life of hell.\ni've been living with my mother in law for a year and she was always interfering in our lives. it determined us to move into a new apartment, smaller but ours only.

Yes, the devil is capable of doing this. More so, it is his angels (demons) that do it. The devil is mainly too busy working on his antichrist plans. But demons are very good at disguising themselves as dead loved ones. They can even make you think that they are being helpful, so that you will want to keep your dead loved ones around, and even begin talking to them. God warns us not to talk to anything else, not even His beautiful angels. You must only talk to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. \n\nThere are no familiars, no ghosts, no dead human spirits of any sort. If an angel ever appears to you, you can test it by commanding it to leave in the name of Jesus. Demons must obey because they are terrified of Him.

If it were true, then it wouldn't nessesarily make any real difference. If you yourself are a good person, then it shouldn't  matter that you have a parent who is in fact the lord of all that is evil. You wouldn't have to follow in their footsteps if you didn't want to.\n\nIf God can mess up and create The Devil, then surely The Devil can mess up and create someone who isn't that bad.\n\n\nIf either of them happen to exist in the first place, that is.

I don't know what I can say that will help you but I can reassure you that you are not the only one. My ex disappeared for the first 6 yrs of my son's life and then reappeared acting like he was the best dad in the world. He constantly contradicts what I say (ex.: my son has dental sealants and can not have sticky candy because it will rip them off but he insists my dentist is a head job who doesn't know what she is talking about, he also tells him he doesn't have to listen to the stupid things I say, that my son doesn't have to be responsible for anything -he's 10, and so on). He also created a tape using one of his friend's to play for my son. The contents consisted of this impersonator telling my ex that I did not love my son, I did not want my son, my ex could keep my son, etc. My ex also has no problem with my son seeing pornographic materials lying about his household. My son told of this and more to a Children and Youth Services agent who told me even though what my ex was doing was inappropriate it was abuse. Now for the grand finale, I stopped my ex from seeing my son for 3 months because he informed me he moved back in with his child molesting mother whom my son was to have no contact with and while the investigation was taking place and I was trying to modify the custody arrangement. During this time he filed contempt charges against me, initially sending to the wrong address (one that didn't even exist) so I missed the first hearing. I later received a visit from a constable telling me if I didn't go to the next one I would be sentenced to jail. I had proof that he sent it to the wrong address before we had the hearing. At the hearing my ex couldn't decide where he was living or for what amount of time, stated I had denied him my son longer that occured, and brought forth info that his mother was recently forgiven for molesting her sons (my ex and his brother). The judge decided that he knew my ex had lied about the extended time but I was also in the wrong because I should have known (even though I lacked the resources to find out and frankly my ex should have informed me since he knew, I forgot we are still supposed to wipe their asses even after we are no longer together) that his mother was forgiven for her most heinous act and that he was no longer living with her. Never mind the fact that we had contact since I stopped letting him take him  and my ex could have mentioned it, never mind the fact that my ex couldn't even figure out where he was living, and never mind the fact that not once did I tell my ex he could not see him, that he could not take him, I WAS STILL IN THE WRONG. I was in the wrong for trying to protect my son. My fiance summed it up nicely, the courts are currently favoring the men. The court does not take the child's welfare into consideration just what they want as they are deciding.

The same thing here. My man's mother more than awful. She's one of those "christains" that quotes the bible and tell you that you're going to hell, but she does every evil thing there is to do. She stole from him, forged his income tax return, lied and manipulate every situation and she told me that if I was to concieve a child, she didn't want no parts of it. I'm writing a book about my experiences with her drama. I ignored her. I stopped playing nice with her after she attack him when he was in the ER. I told her exactly what I thought of her and I ignore her. Eventually, he cut her loose. It was his decision. It's been a year now since we last heard from her. Life has been great and less stressful without her.

That's exactly it.  It gives them a false sense of power.  Calling upon the Creator of the universe's Son to damn what you damn is really what they're doing.  That's why it's called taking His name in vein.  Because you're using His name to damn something that's (most likely) not damned.  Make sense?

You could probably file a defamation of character lawsuit.  I doubt the police would do anything about this.  However, a lawsuit would be expensive and messy for both parties.  You're better off letting it slide, taking the high road and living your life honorably, knowing that these people are petty and not worthy of your attentions.\n\nLight always shines through the darkness and I'm sure the people who know you are aware of your character.
