The devil's greatest trick

It is sometimes said that the devil's greatest trick is convincing people that God doesn't exist. Dinosaurs, evolution, the age of the planet. All twisted by Satan to take us away from God. This is one of the reasons why I won't ever be an atheist. Things we're so smug about when it comes to science could possibly be fabrications.

Thoughts?

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

If Satan can do that then he has as much or maybe even more control of the world than God so I'm not sure why I'd respect God in that case.

Otherwise it seems like a convenient line to deny all possibility of none of it being real.
Satan basically has to have control over the laws of the universe for this to make any sense, he'd have to have come up with stuff like half life just to make carbon dating a thing.

Pretty crazy amount of power for a mere angel, especially if it's something God can't just fix.

Likewise, the greatest human trick was to create Religion as an attempt to control the masses. Spoiler: It worked.

Also don't forget, Satan doesn't exist in other Religions outside of Judeo-Christianity and Judaism. There are other Religions that people tend to forget exist due to volume of followers that the aforementioned have.

Fools. The greatest trick ever created was females. They’ll trick you out of your time, money, emotion, and pretty much everything you have to offer.

Gg scrubs get good with your answers.

Except, this isn't spam. So the question we need answered now is, who hurt you?

It wasn’t meant to be spam. That’s a real answer.

My reasoning for this isn’t based off past experience, it’s based on the world around us. There’s a lot of women out there who manipulate men into doing whatever they want.

Whoa Whoa, hold on, isn't like the greatest trick that the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist?

Yes I believe that's the correct version. Good catch.

You can't argue with science. Where religion is based on belief, science is based on facts. I'd much rather believe in people like Bill Nye and Neil Tyson deGrasse than any god any religion may have. That probably makes me a cynic and possibly an atheist, but it's a choice I'm willing to make.

If you really want to get deep, how are you supposed to know as a human what the Devils’ greatest trick would be. Clearly it can’t be that great if we were able to figure it out.

That's the funny thing about beliefs. You can literally believe anything to be true and it remains true as long as you believe it. If you believe that the greatest trick Satan ever pulled was that he doesn't exist, then who would tell you differently?

Unless we're just better than them anyway, they could build the universe but can do nothing to change it, we have much power in the present.

I can curse God right now and it can't summon a bolt of lightning to kill me on the spot.
We've done things Gods never made possible, they didn't design us to be able to re-grow limbs, so we learned to make our own, stronger ones.


Maybe they all disappeared because they no longer had any hope of controlling us.

if Satan made fossils, ages the planet, put contradictions in the bible, created all those hundreds of other religions aside form the 1 true one, created evolution, prevented God from giving us undeniable truth, and did much more. Then all I can say is hail Satan. Because he did one heck of a job. If God created the world exactly like this the way he did it, and then he expects me to believe in him and praise him, then God is a bit of a d*ckhead in my opinion.

It is kinda dumb isn't it, obviously the whole deal with that is "Faith" but faith works best when based on something, a book hardly does the job so many years later.

Every inspiring figure in written history has something to back them up, people had faith in MLK Jr. for his rousing speeches and overall message not just because he handed post-it-notes inscribed with "Believe in me" to everyone.
Having faith in God, from evidence garnered, just seems to me like a "What if" belief, as in "What IF God is real and punishes us for not doing what this book says?"

I wouldn't have any faith in a God that puts you in a position like that.
