People have a tendency to believe what they are told.
Untill the truth comes out People will continue to never question the Authority they think is telling them the truth-even if its not true its SAD and Stupid but people need to feel comforted so they blame the devil for all kinds of things-What happens to your theory if you take the devil out of the blame game,
then theres only God to blame for good and bad things.

I don't know that everything that happens is God's will.Did you know the Bible says God wants us to prosper and be in good health.That is His desire for us,but we live on this earth an imperfect place(thanks to Adam and Eve),Now we all have choices and decisions to make and there are a lot of unanswered questions.I don't believe the devil is the reason behind all bad things.I heard a minister say once the devil gets blamed for things he had no part in.He does cause some things but we are not in Heaven and some things just happen.WHY???Maybe God does allow bad things but it is not His will.Why would the devil create something like the Bible where he looks so bad and God looks so good.Don't believe everything a Christian says,we are not God we don't know everything.

Blaming the Devil is an easy way of getting out of realizing god may not be so nice after all. Sure back in the day they said god did bad things to test our faith. Well obviously people are tired of being tested and don't want stuff like this anymore. So they blame the devil and think it's him that is trying to mess everything up, because "Oh no, god wouldn't do that to us!"
Yeah, who is to know if the bible is just one big scam. I tend to think that from time to time and yeah I get tired of people and their closed minded ways. "Oh no that is a sin! God will punish you!" and then they go home and partake in their own behind closed doors sins. It's all full of crap; they need to learn to stop blaming everyone else and just accept what is. They are no better than us and they will die just like the rest without actually being 100% sure what is going to happen to them in the end.
We all need to stop wasting time living in denial and throwing arguments back and forth. It's like " I don't want to know if you blame it on the devil! Keep it to yourself ignortant fools!"
nothing was directly pointed to anyone I have to state.

It's a perfect example of a widely used religious trap. The religion tell you all the nice things their deity does and you're happy because you think you have him on your side because you have faith. Then you see a good church going guy crash his car and get thrown through the window shield and die slowly and painfully on the way to the hospital and you think "What the #@%$? I thought had all this sh*t under control!?" So then you go and ask some one, "Why did that man just die a terrible death because the jerk in the other lane was talking on his cell phone?" At which point you get fed some BS like "Lucifer diverted the mind of the other driver." or "God works in mysterious ways."
So now they've justified that situation and everytime you see something similar you don't question the motives because God works in mysterious ways. Now your relative dies and you freak out about it. You turn to religion to tell you that their in a better place because you can't own up to the truth and get through it.
Poin is, religion has been around so long and molded itself to the needs of the weak human mind so well that no matter what the situation they always have the perfect bullcrap to feed you to make you feel warm and fuzzy inside. If some one wants to live that way and not just accept what we can prove and admit they don't know what we can't prove but feel the need to listen to what a bunch of fairy tales meant to teach lessons instead, then fine, leave me out of it.
As a side note I want to mention I have distaste for religion, not the people who follow them.

ROFLMAO
De Devil he do get around.
LOL
I wish it were true that all evil is the direct cause of the Satan, Satan made me do it! Satan did it to me.
But most of the ill of man are the doing of man.
As for such a child, I know not the details of the child, the parents, the grandparents. Nor of the doctors, or lack of.
I can say God allows it and God does take the responsibility for such allowances.
I do not understand God, I was not there when he laid the foundations of heaven.
All I know (believe) is that one day there will be no evil!

Shame on you, and you don't know diddelly about the Bible. You got it all WRONG ! Go back and start again at the beginning in the chapter of Matthew. It gets better, the second time around. Take care and may God bless you, Always.

Christians that blame the devil for everything bad are no better than athiests who blame God for all of the bad in the world. No one wants to take responsibility for their actions- we continue to do things to destroy our bodies, destroy the earth and destroy future generations, and we refuse to see how our actions have caused the consequences that we refuse to accept responsibility for.
All of us need to grow up and start taking accountability for our actions.
PS , I am a Christian.

God lets all things happen! Even things that are ugly! He'll let folks do all kinds of crazy things even though they're Saved. He'll let things of nature kill many.
We don't think like he does, so how could we reason like him?
I won't lecture you in any way! I'll hope that you wise-up before you're cast into Hell for eternity.
There is a Reason for EVERY action of Almight God!
