Do you believe in the Devil?

[PortiaRose]

I do. I just don't think of it as a Him, or HIM in the same way as others.

How do you believe in the Devil?

Edit: I believe that the "devil" is the entity that comes inbetween God's healing, and you. I don't believe he orchestrates the bad events, I believe he opportunistically causes as much damage from natural events as he can.

[LectioDivina]

Sometimes yes...Sometimes no...

[kaffedrikke]

The fallen angel Lucifer exists yes, but he cannot get you unless you want me him to.

[PortiaRose]

You're so close....

I think he accomplished making us believe HE lives in us, and not GOD.

Quoting talktojonell:

Yes. I guess my mental concept is of an entity male/female unimportant with intellect and zero conscious.



I don't remember where it is from but the statement was basically that



the devil's greatest accomplishment of the 21st century was convincing the world that he didn't exist.

Okay, so what I am gathering is if someone is strong in their beliefs and they share it makes them evil. lol For me, that makes them annoying, but certainly not evil or the devil. Eh, whatever, just my opinion.

Quoting Buggy979:

Well, I can say that most, not all religious people think there is a devil. Hench heaven and hell.
When another as myself say no only religious people makeme wonder is because they are the ones who push the belief and don't understand the word " no"..

Quoting Ireallydontcare:

What do you mean by this?

Religious people are evil?

Religious people have said some things that make you question whether it could be true or not?

The devil is in a religious person?

Quoting Buggy979:

No but religious people make me wonder...

[jonnlilithsmom]

[Jeanniedoll]

I just don't believe in this red guy with horns, ya know? But I do believe there is true evil out there. People can be evil and energy can be evil. Kwim?

Quoting PortiaRose:

Thinking about it really creeps me out, so I guess that means I do believe. 

[Pink_Sunshine]

I believe in satan as spoke of in the Bible and I believe in demonic forces/evil spirits as well.

Quoting PortiaRose:

Do you think the devil is a him, or a negative force?

Quoting Pink_Sunshine:

Yes
