    Luke 4:

    5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

    6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.

    7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.

    Considering we live in a pretty cruel world, doesn't this reflect us closer to Satan than God? Is Satan to blame for everything in his world?

    God may know more about Evil then Satan, but is God causing these evils on Earth, I mean come one, it's Satan.

    EDIT: It's mainly human beings now causing the Evil...

    Naturally every thing in the universe is naturally spawned from scratch, or imagined by minds. Both nature, and the imagination are attributed to a omniscient, omnipresent deity.

    If God exists it's his fault. If he doesn't, it's not of course. I also think the concept of "the Devil" or Satan is even more ridiculous than the concept of God.

    If God is all powerful then "yes". If he is not then he isn't a God worth bothering with.

    Remember, God is also above ethnicity.

    The answer is yes, in the sense that nothing happens which is not God. In the same way that if you shoot someone, the iron metal itself is responsible.

    What has "ethnicity" got to do with anything? Are you referring to me using the word "he"?

    The answer is yes, in the sense that I will always be higher than you.

    No, look up the word, and apply it to God(being above it).

    Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."
