You would blame kids for playing Dungeons and Dragons or playing Ouija board for being accused of being a devil as Christians frequently do. And as you would blame Jews for being Jewish for being called Satanic or call Catholics Satanic because you consider the pope to be satan as Martin Luther did, or call protestants Satanic as the pope did.
You spend a significant amount of time online trashing believers and then object to being called an antichrist, i.e. someone who actively opposes Christ. If the shoe fits, wear it.
No, I am not the one derailing this topic to be about me, you are doing this. All that I did was mention the insanity of believing in satan. So if you have nothing to say about the topic that is being discussed stay out and don't troll it for other people who want to discuss.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
