When the devil is solely a Christian invention and doesn't belong to any other religion or belief system?
Even Satanists don't believe in the same devil that the Christians do.

By "demonizing" those with differing beliefs, they are attempting to keep their followers from considering that any of the non-believer's opposing views have validity.

properly i think in Allah, which isn't one among those devil. Allah interprets to- the God, it won't be able to be made plural and is genderless, hence that's the wonderful thank you to particular the monotheistic God. i think that's the call of God, for God is in straight forward terms a call. If Allah have been yet another form of devil then Arabic Bibles may be speaking lots approximately devil because of the fact Allah is got here across everywhere you will possibly see the word God in an English Bible. As a Muslim, i think in Jesus and that i like Jesus. i does no longer be a Muslim if i did no longer settle for Jesus.

Not all Christians do feel that way, it is innacurate to charge an entire group with the actions of some....There are plenty of people out there who I consider to be truly Christ-ian, who realize that Christianity is not for everyone, and who don't feel threatened by the idea that there might be some other way to look at it.

We don't and it is always interesting that non-believers like you think you are able to define what Christians believe especially when you want to refute Christians beliefs.
It would be like me saying non believers wear panties which is a true statement, but it isn't true that ALL non-believers wear panties it is actually a common item of apparel for most women believer or non believer

I am Christian and don't think that at all, unless some non-christians say 'I worship the devil'.
Then I do believe it,
because they told me,
and I don't like to think people lie to me.

I am a Christian and i do not believe that all non-christians worship the devil... especially since to 'worship' anything, you have to believe that it/he/they exist.... atheists do not believe that satan exists... nor do many other religions... I guess that grouping people all together and generalizing about them is wrong all around, don't you think?

It's called bigotry.
big·ot·ry 1. Stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one's own.
They'll try to turn this back around on you: "But you're intolerant of my beliefs!" Really? Your religious belief that you have the right to interfere in other people's private lives? Your religious insistence on hobbling our public school system? Your religious conviction that any science that appears to contradict millenia-old dogma should be suppressed as evil - even though you hypocritically enjoy the benefits of scientific discoveries along with the rest of us a generation later? And note that it's been this way forever. The printing press was the "tool of the devil" when it was introduced. So "Christians" have precious little ground to complain about intolerance.
P.S. - No, not all "Christians" are like this on a personal level. I have plenty of "Christian" friends. But that's just because they aren't carrying their religion to its "natural" conclusions. If you honestly believed that everybody who didn't accept Christ was doomed to eternity in hell, you'd be loonier and more in-your-face to "save" those people than any fundie I've ever seen. Either that, or you'd be morally insane. But most nominal "Christians" are just lax. Thank God!

Because they think that they are right so hence everybody else must be confused thanks to the "devil's" trickery.
Christians don't care if you don't believe in their religion, they believe that you are still affected by it.
