No. There is no valid argument that there is a devil or that this devil is always around or is controlling anyone.
The devil is an excuse people use for their bad behavior so that they can try to avoid taking responsibility for their own actions.

No he is not always around us.... He is not God. Only God has the ability to be onmipresent....or always present. Satan is a created spirit being that was an angel. Angels do not have the ability to be everywhere at the same time.
You can choose to let Satan control you.... if you really want to be a slave! But I choose freedom..... living for God is really freeing... He helps me with everything. He is always there.... whenever I need Him. And He never lets me down. He never controls me but gives me a choice. I can choose Him or reject Him..... If I choose Him I get life and peace... If I reject Him I get death ....So its a no brainer to choose to live for God!

Sometimes we actively let the devil control us ---when we do things we know are wrong. Other times we passively let the devil control us by not acting on Faith.

Absolutely 100% NOT! Satan is a myth created by early humanity to explain away such things as famines, disease, death, pestilence and natural disasters until science evolved enough to explain these events.
Does not exist. To believe in this entity is to believe that there is some war being waged between God and satan that God could possibly not win. Ridiculous!!!

Yes the Devil is always at work like a roaring lion seeking who he can devour and destroy, but Jesus came that ye might have life and have it more abundantly. The word of God is our weapon

Unlike God, the Devil is not omnipresent, therefore, he can only be in one place at a time. But he does have lots of demons with him who tempt us. It is there job to keep us from Christ, so as we get closer to God, the demons work harder to get us to fall. But if we are Christians, God said He would never allow us to be tempted beyond our ability to resist.

I HATE when people blame the devil for things. It is your own temptation, your own mind. This so called "devil" has no control of your mind, you do.

God allows us our "free Will" so any wrong doing is strictly our choice. I would not allow a demon in the home of my children to "test" their love for me, especially if i knew their heart, would you? perhaps blaming the things we do wrong on the devil is a type of denial that may prefer to believe in.

No, I don't believe in the devil. I think it is a concept much like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.
