Are Christians so afraid of taking responsibility for their own lives and their own wrong doing that they must create a fictional demonic creature to pin the blame on? I think I've answered my own question, actually. There are few religions that outsource responsibility to the degree that Christianity does. Can anyone tell me, without quoting the Bible (because, frankly, it gets old), why the devil must be used to usurp all individual reasoning? Why don't you all ditch the idea of an evil grandmaster and suck it up and admit that the devil didn't make you do it, you chose to do it because at that particular moment the idea of either heaven or hell had no affect on your decision-making abilities? Why shove it off on poor old Satan? What'd he ever do to you? Once again, try to think for yourself. Biblical verses won't really drive the point home. Sunny anecdotes, perhaps...
