I have my own ideas of what I think the devil is,
and I am not sharing them.
I am not doing your homework.

C. S. Lewis states in "The Screwtape Letters" that evil is the lack of all good. There can be nothing that is completely evil, as there will have to be some embodiement of good, such as a body or a mind. So, in his opinion, ultimate evil did not exist, but was carried out by a cadre of demons. Or something like that. My opinion? No. I think the devil is in the bad things we do to ourselves, others, and the world around us.

The Devil I know is the one I view, the Devil I don't is the one I worry about..Evil is the root of all money, and happiness is something else..

Although many individuals strongly believe that Satan exists, scientists have proven over and over again that there is no such thing as the devil.
How's that for a start?

It's the last two sentences, and it is a bad thesis.

There is no "devil", that is just a mad-made label for the ever flowing bad energy in this world.

People view God as the manifestation of perfection that can do no wrong, hence they need another entity to direct their displeasure at.
You work out the rest.

Evil, wicked, and sly, the devil works like an ant hill, working day and night to make sure humankind is not happy.
