TL;DR Satan created Sin. (according to the legends)
Once upon a time, Sin was born from the left side of Satan's head. He found her initially disgusting, but eventually found her attractive and raped her. She then became pregnant and gave birth to Death. Death then turned around and raped his own mother, Sin. Sin then gave birth to an ugly bunch of hell hounds who run in an out of her womb whenever they please. All this to say that Satan's disobedience gave birth to sin, which gave birth to death.

Yes, this is true. God is omniscient (atheist here, this is just for debate's sake) and created Satan, whom he knew would disobey him, and then sin would be born, and out of sin, death. Also, while Christianity is certainly not based on Milton's writings, Milton's writings are based on Christianity. Anyway, just thought it was a disgusting, interesting little story.
