The Devil (theology)

☁

The Devil (or Satan) is the ultimate evil and main antagonist in the Christan Religion, and essence of real life.

Why was he proposed?

 * While originally a servant of God, he would betray him and lead a rebellion
 * Tricked Adam and Eve into eating the forbidden fruit leading to them being banished from Eden
 * Convinced God to torture job to prove that job was truly loyal to God, when it was revealed, job was, God gave job back all his old things plus more greatly infuriating Satan.
 * Attempted to turn Jesus to his side,
 * In the book of revelation, he turns earth into a living hell with the first and second beasts, but thankfully all three are cast into hell forever at the end.

Why is He Rejected?

 * The Devil seems to have moral agency issues since it's debatable when either that the Devil is following God's orders or he's always evil to begin with or made of evil.

Trivia

 * While the original Satan was not pure evil, some versions (Such as in Divine Comedy) are. on the other hand, the devil is sometimes a tragic anti-hero in some adaptations.


 * Satan is one of if not the first rejected pure evils in history.
