...provided there are coins up in the Sky....

There may not be a need for a Satan, or Lucifer. According to the bible Lucifer, a Son of the Morning, lived in heaven with God and through his free agency rebelled and started to influence the other intelligent beings of God's creation. God was doing some work with these beings and there was no evil Satan (Lucifer) involved in what was going on at that time. But, maybe as Judas was needed through his free agency to betray Christ, God saw that he could use Lucifer's rebellion to enhance the development of his creations knowing that he would make right (like He did with Job) any long lasting affects of Satan's influence on us while on this earth. So, Satan is needed and what he does is of no lasting harm. No hell, no eternal suffering. Just eternal progression and development for a purpose we don't know yet. Some think our existence is the long process of children growing up to become like their Parents. This seems to be the pattern of most all living things on this earth. Why should it be different for all existence? After all, God became God through some law or process or some form of self existing principles.

Yes in the way that there is good and evil. But the Satan is created, God is not...So it cannot be the the same coin.

Allah almighty is the Unique, with no partners. The dimensionless, the time and space-less. None of the any thing in the whole set of His creatures is equivalent to almighty Him. Allah almighty the endless and start less.
-tive and +tive are two extremes of limited elements the creatures not for the ultimate Creator who is limitsless, So almighty He has no limits so no -tive or +tive in Him.
Satan is the creation of Allah almighty, so He has a start and end so you can put him in either -tive or +tive frame as per his evil acts, we put him in -tive side.
Allah the absolute reality, is free of any comparison with any of His creation.
But the worldly reality, the created reality, has two sides like a coin, as you have said. There is good and bad in the created elements not in the ultimate Creator.
I hope you got my point.

No.
God is love and Satan is evil.
You can't equate the two as opposites since love does not cancel evil, it is far more powerful.
Consider Katrina.
Forces backed by love helped thousands of people.
Evil scored a shooting or two.
With no back up from hundreds of Church's and help organizations.

No, it isn't like Star Wars where there is the dark side of the force. God is the creator of all things and He uses Satan kind of like a human would use a toilet bowl brush to do work that serves a purpose but that they wouldn't do with their bare hands. As an example, look at the book of Job where God allowed Satan to inflict trials upon Job but in the end God returned to Job twice what Satan had taken away.

Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. 7 The LORD said to Satan, "From where have you come?" Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it." 8 And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?" 9 Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for no reason? 10 Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But stretch out your hand and touch all that he has, and he will curse you to your face." 12 And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

Job 42:10 And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. 11 Then came to him all his brothers and sisters and all who had known him before, and ate bread with him in his house. And they showed him sympathy and comforted him for all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him. And each of them gave him a piece of money and a ring of gold. 12 And the LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning. And he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. 13 He had also seven sons and three daughters. 14 And he called the name of the first daughter Jemimah, and the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-happuch. 15 And in all the land there were no women so beautiful as Job's daughters. And their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers. 16 And after this Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations. 17 And Job died, an old man, and full of days.

Job's children who got killed earlier on in the story were waiting for him in Heaven and all of Satan's schemes came to nought.

Romans 8:28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

No. Lucifer(Satan) was an archangel that was cast out of heaven for leading a revolt of the angels against god. .

Yes, like two sides of the same butt, God and the Devil are the left and right cheek. The universe would have a horrible limp if one or the other were not present. The President is the bung hole.

That's one way of seeing it. They are different entities but they aren't equal. Think of Satan as the dark creation of God. He still does God's work and obeys God's rules but his intention is the opposite.
