slayer, if the 'devil' is a real being, how is it I can't lay hands on it to shake it warmly by the throat?

To dumbchristian above. A life that is lived but ends with no purpose. Alife that is forgotten two years after it is passed? A world that blinked into existence by accident with remarkable life yet no purpose? A universe that exists for no reason at all? I think it is more awake to be in touch with the God in your heart. The devil only clears the questions from your head. I'm sorry that Christianity sent you adrift. Please don't let your heart harden.
BOO. You misunderstand my comments to dumbchristians above you. I am a believer.

So you are saying the Devil is an imaginary friend to itself? I guess that sets it up to be more and more imaginary as it's observed, kind of like the two mirrors facing each other effect.

No,,,read what you wrote and think about it a minute.How could you exist as only a figment of an imagination.You would have to exist in order to have an imagination to have figments of one.At least I would imagine that would be the case.

the head of devils Ibliss... ibliss was once among the rank of angels in heaven...until wen adam was created god ordered the angels to prostrate to adam they all prostrated to adam except Ibliss(head of satans) so then god expelled him from the heavens..Then Ibliss asked god to give him time he told god that he willl make everyhuman being unthankful to God and take them of the straight path...god created man and jinn( they are like us but made from smokeless flame) we cant see jinn but they can see us..they live like us eat with us ..there like us but just made from smokeless flame..we are made from clay... there are satans among the human race and among the jinn race...but ibliss is the head of them he makes leads them..god told us this in the quran im a muslim, there much more but im keeping it short i want to know more i suggested that u learn about islam and dnt listen to the media or what u hear from people take a step and learn about islam gain knowlegde wat do u have to lose..get a englisht translation of the quran read it...ulll see the truth..
One thing were all on earth as a test were all gona die..3 things a person doesnt know i read this in a book about islam...it was said by the prophet it is that no one Knows wen they will die, Where they will die and ho they will die
peace my brothers
To my brother underneath me in comment...first im a muslim.if thers no purpose of life or the universe then why are u even existing..theres a purpose behing evrything the reason were on earth is to be tested to see whos good n whos bad who does not associate partners with god and worships him alone..and enjoins good and forbids evil..the real life is the afterlife in heaven for eternity or in hell for eternity..imagine living life in helll for eternityyyy...learn about islam...trust me it will be something u wont regret wen ur dead

Logically unsound. The devil is a real being.
