I'm definitely hating the fact that you are saying the head figure of someone elses religion was supported by "satan". Why can't you let other people believe what they believe without condemning them?
The answer to your question is yes, although personally I don't believe in Satan.

Successful in what way? Satan can give those who follow him and sell out for him fame and fortune and the pleasures of a sin cursed world, but that's pretty much where it ends. You can look at rock stars' lives for an example. God on the other hand, gives you peace and joy no matter what you're going through in life. Sometimes He may give earthly riches. God also supplies your every need which Satan doesn't. Study the life of someone who is truly saved and living for God & and the life of someone who lives for Satan and you will get your answer. It just depends on your definition of success.

no chance cause when Jesus makes his reapperance he's gonna prove that beinn the epitomy of all that is good and true in the world is what will bring the most success and fortune (also cause he's the King too) cause Satan only brings destruction and death wheras God brings life and prosperity so even if someone makes his fortune off of vice it's only temporary.
cause if say for instance a drug dealer starts making it huge in the local area he'll get alot of unwanted attention and the heat will be on him and eventually he will be exposed... and what good is a drug dealer that can't deal drugs anymore?
it might've been a nice thrill to begin with but all those who operate for Satan and start making it big get exposed and that temporary satisfaction just... goes... cause Satan doesn't give a **** about his "followers" whereas you do what God wants he'll supply you with you're needs and you do what God asks you'll experience that satisfaction you're whole life, which is all that matters.

As a stereotyped American, absolutely. As a Christian, LOL. Success is defined by perspective. A married man with 5 children and a caring wife is infinity more successful than Bill Gates w/o family. Donald Trump and his many divorces is but a very poor poor man, but since Americans give so much value to material objects and greed we teach success by how much crap a person owns.

God kicked satan out of heaven, not the other way around. I've read the end of the book. God wins!

It depends against whom. If the man you speak of is trying to get something (i don't know what, power we'll sya here) from a group of disbelievers, then he will probably get it. but if he's being helped by Satan and tries to get power from a believer, he will not get it. however, God could give this man power even from the worst disbeliever.

Absolutely.
Christians believe that Satan is the 2nd most powerful force in the universe. They also believe that Satan is "the ruler of this world."
I think that people supported by Satan *are*, in fact, more successful, in earthly terms, a lot more often than people supported by God.

A man should make as much as or more money than his girlfriend or wife. He should be as tall or taller, and at least as smart. Naturally, he should be able to outplay her in many activity, from Ping-Pong to chess... Having met these requirements, he should be liberated enough to be unconcerned about such things.
