Who's CEO?

Satan is CEO and has upper hand in the soul game of human mammal creatures in this tiny time frame on this tiny speck of dust-like blue planet in a galaxy containing billions of other "suns".
God is the owner who steps in every once in a while even though everything is going into the shi**er.

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 Gods 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’s 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.

Rich people as you said but who owns the CEO? Even more wealthier people . That's why we must use our million dollar
missiles. God and Satan are just concepts of subterfuge designed to confuse the truth and prevent insurrection.

God is CEO. BUT he has given us free will. What this means is that we are free to choose our own actions. Satan works to try to cause us to make the wrong choices. So in a sense Satan is trying to ruin God's work. I believe God does intervene. I don't believe in coincedences. I do believe in God-incidencences!!!

No one. Satan and god are both mythical characters, and there is no one "running" the earth.
