I know the Christian worldview has it that Satan is the Prince of Darkness and the apogee of all evil, but can it really have escaped the attention of two thousand years of Christendom that Jehovah appears to kill MANY more people in the Old Testament than the devil does?
If you asked a person to recite a litany of all of the genocides and outrages perpetrated by God over their morning bacon and eggs, I'm confident they could do it unthinkingly.
But could they instance Satan's shenanigans with similar fluency? Has the devil actually killed anyone in the Bible? I hope somebody more familiar with the Good Book than I might clarify this, because it seems to me that Satan and God ought to exchange jobs.
