Hey,

So I read that page on Satan that you linked, and I totally understand the confusion now.

In the Middle Ages/end of the Dark Ages, people were often trying to bring the social scene out of the dark times. To do so, they starting depicting Satan as something less frightening, as they figured it would ease the fear of people at the time and allow people to move on from a time of religous fear to social "goodness". And it worked, despite the Bible even stating to not take the Devil lightly. However, this was kind of like "adaptational weakening". I can assure you that te Biblical Satan, without taking into account the adaptations and alterations, is Pure Evil.

Again, I forgot about that time and can understand the confusion now, and probably why some people question his eligibility even today. Thanks for bringing it back to my attention.

Thanks.
