There can be no evil if there was no good,and vice versa.
Therefore ,even the least "educated" of all atheists can conclude that there can be no satan without GOD.
so, by acknowledging satan , ur also acknowledging GOD.
I ask u , are u truly an atheist ?
Or are u just bitter against GOD because of the perils that life serves up to us , which we all are forced to endure ?

I believe you are getting Satan worship confused with satanism. Satanists don't necessarily worship the being that the Christian church calls Satan (his real name was Lucifer.) The word "satan" actually means adversary. Satanists believe themselves to be the adversary of the church. Most Satanists are Atheists however some do believe in a God of sorts, just not the Christian God. Most Atheists don't believe in God or the devil.

I have only one thing to say to you: YOU ARE A MORON.
Okay, well, I lie; I have two things. Where on earth did you come up with that asinine statement about atheists identifying themselves with satan? Did you pull that out of your *** or what? Good grief; even Satanists don't really believe in Satan! You are such an ignorant numbskull!
Yeah...sure...they're all just bitter, and you're so enlightened...you just keep telling yourself that, if it helps you sleep better at night...the logical and reasonable inhabitants of the world shall carry on without you...

Athiests don't identify themselves with Satan. Athiests don't believe in any gods. Anyone saying they are an athiest who believes in or worships Satan is probably 12-14 years of age, and thinks it's wicked cool to be, like, rebellious or something, and has no idea what they're talking about.

You might be talking about me, yet this is no reason to generalise to the extent of the atheist community.
I am both a satanist and an atheist, but if you knew what satanism was, you would not bother asking this question. I don't believe in deities, satanism does not give me any. Hell, I don't worship the christian devil! I'd have to believe in it, which I don't.
If you wish, feel free to write to me if you have any questions.

What atheists identifies themselves with Satan? Because I have yet to meet one.

What atheist did you see that says he or she believes in Satan? I've certainly never met one that does... and it's definitely not "most."
"Most" atheists don't believe in anything supernatural, though there are some that believe in a soul, for instance - but that's the exception rather than the rule.

The atheists who identify themselves with Satan do not know what "atheist" means!

Since atheists do not believe in any deity, it's impossible for them to believe in satan, let alone "identify themselves" with such a personage.

The two atheists I know do not believe in Satan either.
They are both scientists and only believe what their eyes can see.

I think you're missing the point that the atheists are trying to make. They are simply believing in something different from what you are. Please don't attribute them nor anyone else that differs from Christianity to Satan. That's not ethical nor is it nice. Give them the right that you have -- to express their own thoughts.
