locusts - // Is Satan just a symbol of Evil //
Whatever answer you want - it makes no difference at all what anyone else says, I don't know why you bother asking questions, you have no interest in anyone else's view, you just get miffed when people don't agree with what you think.

most religions have a sort of devil demon call it what you will, i do not think there is such a thing or ever was, irrational minds of early humans who tried their best to explain why bad things happen to good people, why good people sometimes do bad things, and why there is so much needless suffering in the world, and also to get bums on seats, in churches and other places of worship, acts as a good tool to control.
What do you think Locust? I think gods and demons are simply an invention used in the past to keep people where the well off wanted them, getting them to believe that if they were good (worked harder for peanuts) then they would go to an imaginary heaven. Does anyone in their right mind believe in angels and demons?

The answer lies fairly and squarely at the door of human nature.
It cannot be coincidence that every single trible of mankind anywhere on the planet has come up with something to worship, and something to fear.
I have no problem accepting that as simply the way the human mind works - something to explain the good and bad things that happen every day.
I simply don't feel the need to fixate on one particular example, and spend my entire life fretting because others don't think like I do.
I am always delighted if people do think as I do, about anything, but to castigate them for their own views being different from mine, and muttering dark threats about their future after death, seems to be pomposity of galaxy-sized proportions.

Theland - // Are my opinions unwelcome? //
Not in the slightest.
However, your sneering, lecturing, carping, insulting, nastiness, superiority, arrogance, and insults are unwelcome.
Leave those at the door, and your opinions are as welcome as anyone else's.
Bring them in and scatter-gun them around, and you'll continue to get the full-on flak that sends you into smoking martyr mode.
It's not rocket science, this has been pointed out times without number - let's hope it will one day take effect.

Andy - Thank you for your comments, but I do really reject them.
I have no intention of sneering or being arrogant etc, and if I appear as such, it is not intentional.
Insulting? Maybe, of I cross the line from simply being robust.
I do notice though, time after time, how my views are misunderstood, maybe deliberately so, to create an argument, and then the myth takes on a life of its own.
