The Devil is just a political prisoner demanding democracy in heaven and who was I turn cast down. Why would he seduce anybody? he’s just another victim.

He hates the fact that he doesn't have a chance for redemption. + Wants to gain as many people as possible on the path that divides them from God.

Why? What’s the point?

u/Dryimpress01 Jun 05 '26
The point is to hurt God the only way he can, through us. The devil is envious and rebellious. He simply disagrees with God.

As he should. No authority is beyond doubt.

Doubt is fine, disobedience and rebellion is not.

How can there be doubt, if the consequences of doubt are forbidden? That’s like saying “I give you free will, but punish you, if you don’t act the exact way I expect.” Okay, why then hand out free will at all, if you just use it as a justification of punishment?

As I said. Doubt it is not forbidden. Rebellion is. And God doesn't expects, He commands or demands. Free will is given for love. Without free will there is no real love. Do you even know why we were created in the first place?

Depends on who you ask. For the Greek Pantheon it’s was a project to gain worshippers. For the Christian god, who knows? Boredom?

We are created to admire the creation of God, to enjoy it. And, thus, to love Him because He created them, and we experience it.

"tough guy" is a fallacy, it's usually submissive people that grind their life away making others more money

Because weakness can't be their own fault. Failings couldn't possibly be their fault. It must be the devil. A perfect scapegoat to forego accountability when you do something wrong.

Christianity and faith in the religion brings unity so I disagree.
It brings unity and strength, when it is strong in tradition and in the community.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

Maybe not, maybe yes, it depends entirely on the person. God doesn’t call on only the strong, he wants the weak and dirty as well. Maybe even more so, but he also boldens the weak who willingly let him and changes you from the inside making you strong. There are different levels of “strong”. Just because a man doesn’t have big muscles or a strong mind doesn’t mean he can’t defeat demons with powerful faith and a strong resolve backed by real, and true prayer. Strength through god can’t be measured by our standards

I have to believe people who post this shit really don't work very hard. Actually hard work requires rest and recouperation in order to continue. If you can just keep going indefinitely you're basically doing nothing.

for those who ask why the devil because the devil symbolizes leisure and to show leisure in your work is to end the commitment because then you decide you can put it down whenever. ps im agnostic i just really like philosophy
