Once an all powerful god was postulated, a natural progression of thought made a devil possible too. Funny that. Once the human mind discriminates and labels, suddenly all these dichotomies emerge. Positive/negative, up/down, light/dark. And...god/devil. I find it amusing that a reversal could just as likely occurred: a postulated devil necessarily bringing forth it's opposite in god. Now that would be an entertaining version of biblical events!
Poor Satan...forced into a role through a by-product of human discriminatory thinking. Poor chap is a victim by virtue of (ahem)god's existence.
