Is Satan Just A Symbol Of Evil

Is Satan just a symbol of Evil
how many people think he is just - a figment of the imagination a myth or a fairy tale-- just to stop children from being misbehaving –but the Bible talks of --different story of this fallen angel.. Matt .4. 10

Doncha just hate it when you end up with chicken on your face? :-P

[allenlondon]

I didn’t really believe in Satan until I found Answerbank.

[andy-hughes]

locusts - Your entire premise rests on the belief that the bible is a work of fact.

It may be, but there is absolutely no proof that it is whatsoever, so quoting it as though it is a reliable source, is really not helpful.

douglas - // Doncha just hate it when you end up with chicken on your face? :-P //

Brilliant!!

Its very difficult not to digress, as the whole question hinges on spirituality, something that arouses the ire of some on here, and that is difficult to cope with.

Locusts, //by my learning and understanding the information if you don't know what the information is --how can you comment on it //

I think that's absolutely right.

Do you feel the conversations here are of benefit to you - and if so, what have you learnt since you've been here?

[Theland]

Locusts - I hope you continue to post, as your threads engender interest and conversation.
I do hope ignore any posts ridiculing your beliefs, instead of discussing them.

Haik Hovsepian. A Martyr For Christ.

This is definitive evidence for the power of the Holy Spirit, that can never be quenched.

//This is definitive evidence for the power of the Holy Spirit//

Not so. It’s evidence of one man’s faith but it’s in no way evidence of anything other than that. If anything presented ‘definitive’ evidence, there would be no further dispute.

andy-hughes Here was something that was against the laws of aerodynamics, yet clearly in evidence, bees do fly, when science says they can't.

Once slow-mo photography caught up, it revealed that the assumption that bees have fixed wings like flies was actually wrong - bees rotate their wings, which is how they fly their heavier bodies with apparently too-small wings that they use.

A prime example of how science caught up to disprove a believed theory - it happens all the time, and history books are full of examples.

Look at the 747 - it's body is longer than the Wright Brothers' first flight - who would have conceived air travel, the internet, space exploration ... the list goes on and on.

Locusts //I will try to answer your question on this flying bumble bee-- and you say about aerodynamics it is impossible for really for the Bumblebee to be able to fly-- because of its small wings and the size of its body-- but once again I have to point out that the designer who created this bumblebee had all the Dynamics and mathematics -bats - in building this bumble be.-
just like a designer .who designs an aeroplane-- who copies most of the time-- from flying birds --how to be able to improve his mathematics and design for one example back in 1930 {when the designer spitfire }
he was designing the Spitfire he watched the birds and how they used to fly and their wingspan which gave
him the idea-- How to build his Spitfire in England ---
we copy the dolphin and the Whale for the design-- of our submarines because of their speed in the
once again I will turn back to to a perfect designer who can design and create this wonderful planet of ours

Locusts//I have found at many of the post men-- DV8 from the actual discussion-- and never give a correct comment on the subject at hand-- they are like kangaroos jumping around all over the place just to prove their justification is right and not on the subject which is at hand-- and just give me a silly answer-- and never really put their true points into the discussion-- which is not helpful --and also write some words which is not even in the English dictionary --so for the likes of me – to get an understanding of the word he is using ????

[naomi24]

Locusts, //never really put their true points into the discussion//

I put my true points into the discussion. You don't appear to want to consider them though. You seek only endorsement of your own opinions and hence you learn nothing.

[allenlondon]

Naomi. Are you ever NOT cross about something?

[naomi24]

Allen, don't ask me to explain your bizarre perceptions. They're your problem - not mine.

[allenlondon]

...she answered, crossly.

[naomi24]

Pathetic.

[andy-hughes]

locusts - // once again I will turn back to to a perfect designer who can design and create this wonderful planet of ours //

And once again you are assuming there is a 'perfect designer' because it is what you want to believe.

No problem, as long as you acknowledge that it is a belief, and not a fact, and that there is a fundamental difference between the two.

Bumble Bees don't fly on their own , they have little engines - I've heard them.
