Satanism vs. Christianity

[robvalue]

Satan is the ultimate scapegoat. God creates him so that he never has to be accountable. Anything bad ever happens, it's satan's fault, or mans fault because someone once ate an apple (way to hold a grudge God.)

We have no information about satan other than what God tells us, and is he likely to give us a fair assessment? What I think is far more likely is satan killed God ages ago and has been impersonating him ever since. He's written the most evil book possible, treats people like absolute shit and still tricks them into worshipping him as the ultimate good. He must be laughing his arse off.

By the way, any argument against the above scenario is countered by the phrase, "But that's exactly what satan would want you to think! Are you saying you're more powerful than a deity and he can't trick you?"
