God as a benevolent force in the universe is completely real to me yet my mind rejects thinking of Satan as real. I decided once that that is because it would be, imo, so patently unfair. Unfair that an evil force could just invade people's minds unaware. <<you are what you eat, so to speak>> Definitely. There's also a scripture that starts out "as a man thinketh, so he becomes...."
