My thoughts are that God represents the Conservative,Fascist,dictator and Satan represents the anarchist. Neither are very positive.

It's common knowledge.
Far Left:Anarchy
Far Right:Fascism
Middle:Democracy

Both appear to be both and neither. I'm not certain your analogy holds much water. You're talking about human political positions, and both have been taken up by both theists and non-theists. And the theists have at times called the other side satanic. It's just rhetoric, not representing reality.

EDIT: You're being a bit naive in your interpretation of right & left. The right has frequently been seen as the side that advocates less government (i.e., anarchy), and the left as the side that advocates for more government (i.e., socialism & communism). You're trying to fit multiple dimensions into a bi-polar continuum. I fear you're showing a poor understanding of political extremes and the middle. Democracy is actually at the extreme end of the continuum of power given to the populace, and is much closer to anarchy than dictatorship. And the US has only a limited democracy.

God represents a perfect theocracy and Satan represents the havoc created when human beings try to rule with no thought of the Biblical creator God.

The answer is neither. GOD does not promote politics and anyone who has read the bible knows that GOD does not want christians to be a part of politics. Politicians are ordinary men. It is discusting that either side would use GODS image to promote war or for their own personal gain.

Actually God represents the Far Right, and Satan represents the Far Wrong.
Sorry, couldn't resist. (grin)

I tend to think of God as a democrat and Satan probably a staunch Republican. lol Is that a better picture? Hmmm...not sure if it is or not. No matter the politics i hear heaven is full of harps and hell is warm.

Since when have the Far Left been anarchists?
Well then common knowledge is wrong.
