yes, they do - however as much as it is a controversial thing to point out there ARE belief systems that see Satan as winning.. some belief that God is a malicious entity, thus "Satan" is His way of justifying doing terrible things, that is a "successful" Satan.

There are also many demon-worshippers that truly believe evil is destined to win, on a less "out there" note there is also a theological thought that evil will triumph over good.

When people quote the Bible anti-Christian groups would argue the famous quote from John Milton "consider the source" - if God were malevolent or believed Satan would win He would never admit it in a book written to spread His word.

So, some people geniunely do believe Satan to be successful - they are in the minority however and usually have a grudge or general dislike of Christianity, since the concept of Satan winning is pretty anti-Christian.

It has nothing to do with atheism btw, atheist don't believe God OR Satan exists - Theological Satanism is a rare (but real) belief that Evil will defeat God or that the world is already in Hell.
