Whether or not he has bat and snake features, he is not of the specy.

1) Jerks and Bullies are highly abused categories. Users tend to put them everywhere, but what defines it is pettiness, inflated ego and the habit to pick on defenceless ones to feel superior. While Satan does have a sizable ego, he has the power to back it up. And while he sometimes indulges in petty actions, he is more of a large scale manipulator and a big threat.

2) I favoured the "Asexual" category because, despite being refered to with male pronouns, he is a Cosmic entity beyond gender. "Male Villains" is valid but it cannot be both.

3) Villains cannot be Big Bad and Bigger Bad at the same time, unless the Big Bad of a setting remains active in a spin-off with a Big Bad of its own. It is said in the category definition. No matter the setting, Satan is always the Big Bad.

4) I admit you're right with God Wannabe, although I always felt that it was more complicated. But nevermind, point taken.

5) "Sociopaths" is one of our most abused categories. There is a huge difference between sociopathy (the clinical absence of remorse and inability to understand right or wrong like we do), and merely being an unrepentant Card Carrying Villain who simply does not care. Satan has become the latter.

6) "Satanism" means worshipping Satan. He is the one worshipped.

7) - Anarchists want to bring down the established order. Satan wants to maintain it with him in charge.

- Warmongers cause wars as a mean to reach a goal that is not conquest, or for the sake of it. He waged war against God to defeat him and/or take over his throne, a straightforward approach that makes him into "Warlords".

8) Nihilists regard all lives as meaningless, including their own. Satan being the textbook example for the sins of pride and hubris cannot be labelled as one.

Categories are exclusively about specifics and nuances.
