His Name is David (I can't tell you his last name, he'd kill me) He lives in a trailor in Realto California, he's very easy to spot, he drives a 68 Light blue Ford Ranchero, and he's usually at the local starbucks on his wi-fi laptop between 2pm and 4pm. I think that must be when he does most of his evil deeds. He's got long hair, he looks to be about 55 or sixty, he likes to wear aviator sunglasses.

Anyway I hope that helps

GWB?

Seriously, In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.

The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of God plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.

Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.

Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.

Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

I just read about this recently, actually. The Muslims refer to Israel as "little Satan" and refer to the U.S. as "Big" (or Great) Satan.

The Muslims supposedly want to knock off Little Satan first (Israel), then destroy the Great Satan (U.S.).

It depends completely on your point of view.

I read somewhere that Microsoft is considered the Great Satan.

And Israel, their politicians are abusive of powers, just because US is on their side! And the terrorist, they always make trouble and killed a lot of inocent people too. They are causing great chaos in this world.
