Jane, of course it would be hard to beleive in the Messiah and not Satan. Since , if you believe Jesus was the Messiah
you would have to accept the fact that Satan and demons are mentioned a handful of times in the Old Testament.....
then Kabbbbbbbaaaaaaaammmmm...................Jesus is on the scene and demons, evil spirits, Satan is mention 200 times in the New Testament.
In fact, it looks like Jesus mentions the evil and Satan so frequently that to beleive in HIM says you have to accept the Evil part of darkness as real or you are beleiving in someone who is crazy and accepting a crazy person's opinion as your Messiah.

<< they usually are quite involved in studying and point making in the satanic realm. >>

I doesn't surprise me that some people, especially teenagers, look towards a Satan as a god. Most religions teach that Satan exists and has godly powers. Thus, most religions incorrectly teach that there is more than one God.

There is no Satan. If religions would stop telling our young that there is a powerful god named Satan, things would be a lot better. I believe that this angers God.

<< Didn't you see "The Usual Suspects"? >>

No I didn't. I don't watch too many movies.

<< But, it is an interesting philosophy. That your one true god does not allow for the presence of satan. (huh? o.k.........) >>

I respect all religions. It fascinates me how people have distorted the true meaning of God.

It's your preference is to have Satan as part of your belief. Who is to say who is right?

<< Surely you could agree that this often happens when men follow other men, and turn away from the Creator and his Manual of Instructions. >>

All decent people need to have a personal relationship with God. God's instructions are written in their hearts.
