Nope.
Are you just going to post a bunch of religious 1 line questions?
At least make them thought provoking....

How does he show up in the forums everyday? Are you implying that the devil is a human who owns a computer? I thought the devil was in Hell. How would something that doesn't even live on the Earth have access to a computer?
If you believe in God you have to believe in the Devil as well because they go together.

He is a spirit and it may not be he that appears,but it`s definitely an evil spirit that does his bidding.
i like the Hades myth better .
I'd say a metaphor, maybe for human tendency to evil. HOWEVER I've felt actual evil before coming off a man in waves, it was chilling and terrifying. You know how you can feel someone staring at you, or you can feel the tension in the air if you walk into a room where people were arguing, or how you can feel someone's intentions to attack you? From this one man, one time in my life, I felt more than bad intentions. It felt like a true ... don't quite know what, not a substance but thicker than the air. I never knew before that something like that existed.
Absolutely! He is still walking about the earth like a hungry lion seeking whom he may devour. It is satan that blinds the eyes of the unbeliever.
He only bothers with you if you believe in him. Have you ever noticed in films he only comes for the Catholics?

Have you ever noticed that those films are made by secular people? I think the Devil comes after secular people, but since they don't believe in the Devil, the Devil can just about do anything to them.

I do believe there is evil in the world. But no I don't believe in the Devil nor the Boogyman.

Not even the boogyman? I have a three year old here who wants to pick an argument on the boogyman one! ![]()
Well if the devil didn't make me do it then who did?
I believe people can conjure the Devil. Speak of the Devil and he usually appears.
