The whole concept of "god" and the "devil" is fabercated so as to appease the ingnorant masses and to "shame" them into following the prepratrator of this thought. The idea was you are a good and righious person if you obey the "god" they want you to, but if you don't you are a "devil" worshiper and not worthy to be a part of society. What one has to remember is the whole concept of religion is based on a lie. That lie is "god" is all everything b/c that would be a contradiction if a little thought was applied. That thought might bring us to the fact that if a "god" was so powerful that he caused a flood to encompose the whole world and kill all mankind b/c 'he" was angry with them, why murder all humans and animals why not distroy the source of evil. Well by doing that the "god" loving people would have nothing to fear so why have a "god" at all since evil would no longer exist.
