And, as far as looks go, Satan is supposed to be beautiful. Disguised as an angel of light. Because, in all honesty, aren't the worst things for us those things that look the best?

| I've given this topic much thought and I'm with Moonitic. The Devil's job is to trick and beguile. The choice is ours to make therefore the responsibility is ours to take. I like Eskeemer's sig though, that the face of the devil is that of man. I would put a different spin on it by saying, "I have seen the face of the devil and it is my own", for truly it is we who create the evil in this world and the devil is laughing.

| I don't know, but I do believe in some crazy crap- Besides being Mormon I've seen some pretty crazy *** stuff happen with my old girlfriend who was wiccan, and I've done some pretty awesome healing stuff with Tai Chi. Wouldn't believe it unless I saw it, so I won't bother explaining any instances to you guys. You think I'm crazy enough as it is. | |

| No I do not blame the evil acts that I do in external forces, when I do something bad I am responsible for that, but there are times(...some spesific times that the angel of evil tricker us, send evil thoughts (λογισμούς in my language) and he wants our destruction. Not only our physical body but something more..to destroy our souls).

I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around the image of a Mormon dating a wiccan... | |

| I have a really hard time (even without Scriptures) saying there is no devil (Lucifer is his name), having had some...experiences with it. I understand we all have eveil (and the capacity for evil) within us, and a fallen nature...but I've had...something else in me before. Something dark.
There is most assuredly a devil out there. And he's quite active. | |

| Everyone's evil in my opinion. I also think you could say that "evil" is just someone's point of view.
(No, I'm not condoning mass genocide or anything evil like that, because it is evil. I'm just saying, that to some, maybe it's not.)
Edit: It's late, so don't ask me to back this up, because I have no idea where its going

| I don't believe in the devil or hell- goes against my religion.
I'm not sure that I believe in evil..... but I think that being completely culturally relative about what is bad and what isn't is a dangerous road. I believe that some things are categorically wrong. Like rape and genocide and telemarketers.
