If Satan comes to Earth

Philippines

I suppose there are mylotters here who believe in the existence of Satan. Now, let's say Satan comes to our world and you'd meet him. What would be the first thing you'd say to him? Alright, I'd do it first: I'll ask Satan to remove all the hatred he placed in people's heart so that we will have a long and lasting peace here on Earth, and allow love to reign among us all.

What on earth is this discussion doing in Thinker? I mean it's an oxymoron to speak of thinking and religion in the same breath. Put it where it belongs next time, in Fantasy, or Religion. Lash

Ooooppps, wrong place? When I posted the topic, I intended it as a situational question, not the usual boring, sterotyped, or oversimplified religious question. I simply needed a name which is enormously and globally popular. So I chose the name Satan, which is, incidentally, a name mentioned in the Bible. If I used grandpa_lash instead of Satan, would it have become a smarter question? And when I posted the question, I thought about it. I did some thinking. When members posted their responses, they also did some thinking. Ergo, the poster and the responders are Thinkers. Don't you Think so?

Id ask Satan what it was like in heaven. Now whether or not he would answer would be the real question!

If I believed in his existence, I would ask him who has killed more people; himself or God. And I'd ask him why it is that I've seen and heard so much about God's followers starting wars, killing each other, and acting out of malice towards anyone who doesn't follow God, but why I haven't ever heard or seen anyone do anything in his name. I'd ask him if all those things about him wanting to hurt humans is true or if God just likes to dish out the gossip.

Well I disagree with the idea that in order for us to live in this world, so many horrible things have to happen. The human race is sick. Other animals are not nearly as greedy or vicious as humans, yet we claim that the world was built just for us. Humans "ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil" and now our egos have us all twisted. It's my favorite tale from the Bible because it's so ironic.

I will him, "OH SATAN WELCOME TO EARTH! NICE TO BE BACK, IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME!" Sorry but I don't believe in Satan. I only believe in science.

That just proved that science could not give anything that the human race and other living things need. Everything that we need to survive was and is being given by a Superior Being (we may call Him God or any other name you want), and science must recognize His existence.

I'd ask Satan if I could borrow his fork so that I could finish eating my salad.

and to take a note too that even Manny Pacquiao beat plenty of legendary boxing fighters... it is like comparing a foot soldier can beat 20 generals.... since i know Kung Fu, maybe i can challenge Satan to enter inside the ring, so Satan can taste my rapid 10 combinations of fists....

Maybe, but that would just be running off the assumption that he would be corporeal.

I will ask Satan what does it feel being the ultimate cause of the troubles in this world. If it were for a day that he will be here, I will show him good things in life that can happen in a day. I will teach him a game, have a dinner with him , walk around the park, sing a song until the very last minute of his stay. He might not realize the essence but at least i tried doing something for him.

You are as hopeful as I am, that by showing love to him, he might change. I like your response. It has the tone of positivism; that even though we are just humans who might not be as powerful as Satan, I do believe (and I think you do, too) that though he can not be melted by fire, he can be melted by genuine love. So when Satan sees than people have changed, there's not a single remnant of hatred in their hearts, he would then give up and accept defeat. He was good before, he could become good again. This could just be a figment of imagination, but who knows - this could be real.

is there any possibilities because as what we know, Satan is the king of lies.... maybe what we see that Satan is Bad but it is only a lie, but he do also good things but what we see and know, and heard is only his bad attitude but not knowing that he also did something plenty of good things.... i came to imagine that Satan before is a good type of Angel as what God created him, but later turn into a bad devil, so i think there is a possibility that he did something good too because he already came from good angel.... possibilities are everywhere.... and according to Holy Bible even Satan killed only not more than 50 people throughout history, and Satan did it with the permission or the consent of God... while the killing of the billions of people is for God to do it in order to eliminate the possibilities of overpopulation....

i would probably tell him to get away from me and stop his nonsense because God would free us all and that he will not be successful whatever he wants to do or plans to do to the world.

I believe that Satan exists and I know he's always around. I will tell Satan, "no matter what you do I will always go for good and wont follow you". I don't wanna be with you in hell so get away from my face". And I will cast a prayer to him.

I don't think Satan would do that though... Since if he is true and what we know abut him, an what the Bible says is true- then he would do no good or grant a wish at all. I would just ask him though, how he became like that..

According to the Bible, Satan is already here on earth before adam and eve.......satan and all his devils is around us everytime....the earth is his kingdom, this world belongs to him....he is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour....satan is happy to see the majority of the people bel "mongs to him...I know he is around me everytime to inject bad thoughts and devising schemes so i may fall in his trap...so i say to him "Satan get out of my way in the name of Jesus my Lord and Savior I rebuke you, I have nothing to do with you as i belong to Jesus!"

I think , i will ask him to stop doing evil things , repent and return to GOd. However, i think i will be so afraid, that i will run away from him.

if God is located everywhere, therefore, Satan is also located everywhere.... but here on earth Satan is always here and do anything that Satan can do just to temp us to imitate him like wearing of horror dress as of celebrating a Halloween Celebrations that we might think its not a sin but to analyze it we already fall into Satan's temptation.... at least, Satan already tempted us and that is one of Satan's technique.... but were just only humans, and i too wearing horror mask during Halloween, and i believe too that we can't live by doing only good, we have to Halloween costumes for once a year.....

Those Halloween costumes we wear - black cape, horns on the head, a tail - do you think that is how Satan looks?

we have a Halloween Celebration here in our provincial city a contestant full of zombies and gore with lots of blood on their shirt and more frightening compare to Satan, you can picture out those gore costumes.... but i really believe that the looks of Satan is still an angel and only Michael Angelo the painter of Vatican paints Satan with horns, tails and red skin.... but actually, Satan looked like the most handsome of all the handsome because Satan uses his looks of handsome just to temp girls to fall in love.....

Hi! Satan is real , in fact he has been in this world fro so many years. He's been deceiving a lot and disguising as a good one.I guess want you want him to do will not be done since he is a demon.If ever I will meet him I will cast him away in the name of Jesus!Be careful he is just around,lurking and looking fro some opportunity to tempt , deceive and get us to follow him.

I think satan won't let what you think happen.:) Satan is devil so he won't let peace be in earth. Instead of begging him to remove all the hatred he placed in our heart,maybe I would just slap him and kick him until he can walk no more. I know it is bad to hurt others,but I wish doing it to satan is an exemption.:)

Just be careful when you slap and kick him. He might throw on you a big ball of fire, lol.

He probably will have me indoctrinated and become his worshiper the minute he appear, without giving me the freedom to speak out my mind. He would have me kill once i request to speak other praise, Satan demand total obedience from us all.

i will only question him, since God created you, then, is it all that you do is you ask a permission to God before you do it? or... it is having a concern with God? because i know that you don't have to do it without the concern of God.... for what i know you only kill less than 50 people while God already kills more than a billion people... my source? the Holy Bible

I'd say him 'It's hot. Isn't it?' I think Satan is on the Earth since a long time ago. If you read the Bible you can find many passages which tell us about his presence here. It's a good idea to ask him to take the hatred out of the people's heart. We need a lot of prayer to avoid Satan.

First of all, I don't know how satan look so even if I met with him, I wouldn't know whether he is the one.I would think maybe is a ghost or something else. I wouldn't also like to meet him. I have so much grudge and hatred upon him that is very hard to explain.

As far as I know he hates humans - jealousy alert. And I doubt it if he'd listen to you - at all! He might just smite you with his... uhm... smiter! LOL. But, anyway... I don't think you can make him remove the hatred and pain etc2 in peoples hearts because if he really is what we think he is - God of Evil something - then he rejoices and lives with our fear and misery. *Wink

I'm not sure what i'd say to him. I'm not particularly a religious person, either way you look at it, so I probably wouldn't even be sure what to say i god himself came down. I think I'd ignore them both personally and just hang out with some of my friends. After all, religion has been one of the bloodiest things in our entire history and I want nothing to do with it.
