    I dont believe in satan. He's just an antropomorphication. (Fancy word, eh?) Means an embodiment of one or more human traits.

    But if he exists, I hope he's like Lucifer in Sandman. Selfish bastard with a rebellious streak and tons of charisma, who actually quit and closed off hell. And looking like an angel, except for his hair having a few lumps where he perhaps should have horns...

    But in real life? No. Regretfully, I believe us humans are perfectly capable of doing what we do without a paragon of evil "tempting" us to do so.

    Peace

    It would have to be Darkness from Legend though.

    I also like the idea of him being as Anne Rice does in Menoch the Devil, very good book.

    Satan - adversary; accuser. When used as a proper name, the Hebrew word so rendered has the article "the adversary"

    *** 07854 satan {saw-tawn'} from 07853; TWOT - 2252a; n m

    AV - Satan 19, adversary 7, withstand 1; 27

    1) adversary, one who withstands
    1a) adversary (in general - personal or national)
    *** 07853 satan {saw-tan'} a primitive root; TWOT - 2252; v

    AV - adversary 5, resist 1; 6

    1) (Qal) to be or act as an adversary, resist, oppose

    *** 02252 Chabayah {khab-ah-yaw'} or Chabayah {khab-aw-yaw'}from 02247 and 03050;; n pr m Habaiah = "Jehovah has hidden"

    *** 02247 chabah {khaw-bah'} a primitive root [compare 02245]; TWOT - 590; v
    AV - hide... 5; 5

    1) to withdraw, hide, hide oneself
    1a) (Qal) to withdraw
    1b) (Niphal) to hide oneself, remain hidden, withdraw

    Genesis 3:10, "And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself."

    I don't believe in the pitch fork guy. I believe that in the world of humanity, we are our own worst enemies at times.

    I definitely believe in God's and Satan's existance.

    On a lighter note, if there were no Satan, we'd be missing a lot of kick ass metal songs. :D

    The only Satan that I believe in is the one in South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut. He was hot. A bit gay but the hottest Satan there is.

    All other incarnations of the red one are just figments of the imagination and religion in general.

    Closer to the truth than you might expect....of course truth is relative here.

    The Bible speaks as Lucifer as the morning star and the angel of light and also the most beautiful creature in the The Garden (Not MSG). :)

    But then he is also the Father of Lies, an abomination, a deciever, etc.
