I beleive in both but I only love one. God and his son Jesus.
They are both one. Why? because I can look around and see no man could create all that I see that is natural and organic and of beauty. ie, trees, grass, fruit on trees, the sun. my eyes, ears etc.

Neither.I believe in a variety of gods/goddesses or none at all. There are some tenets of Satanism that seem valid but vengeance and too much self-gratification tend to turn on you. IE: If you like donuts and do the self-gratification thing to an extreme, it eventually will turn into other problems.
If you have a devout Xian neighbor who tells your kid whatever Xian thing, you get mad (rightfully) and burn their yard...they're probably going to call the police and then you have to pay. After you get out, it just goes on and on, back and forth. That's how some family feuds start...
Basically, I 'believe' in keeping your options open and seeing what you can learn from different philosophies. You can always accept/reject something in America w/o your life being threatened.

I believe that God is the Creator of all things visible and invisible, I believe in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord, Who was born of the Virgin Mary suffered death and was crucified.
On the 3rd day He rose from the dead and is seated now at the right hand of God the Father.
I believe that satan is a real entity but do not believe IN him as such, he was created by God and because of his vast pride rebelled and was cast out of Heaven.
What I do not believe however are those two links above which are for self gratification only.

I believe in Satan as it is a symbol for everything that is human about us.
The Nine Satanic Statements
from The Satanic Bible, ©1969
by Anton Szandor LaVey
[français]
1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!
2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!
3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!
4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!
6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!
7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all!
8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!
9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!

If that was the only choice, I'd choose Satan.
Neither exist.
