People who cease to believe in God or goodness altogether still believe in the devil. I don't know why. No, I do indeed know why. Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.

When you believe in God, you've got to believe in the all-powerful God. He's not just God, He's the all-powerful God and He has total control over everyone's life. The Devil, on the other hand, is a real character that's trying his hardest to tear your life apart.
I don't believe in devils. Indifference and misunderstandings can create evil situations. Most of the time, people who appear to be evil are really victims of evil deeds.
As for the Devil - that is somebody our religion tried to do without for a long time.
It is so stupid of modern civilisation to have given up believing in the devil when he is the only explanation of it.
The New Testament Scriptures are full of references to the malice of the devil, but we generally overlook them. I think this is because our idea of salvation is that Christ died on the cross to pay His Father the debt for our sins.
Whether or not the devil is really good or evil is something that we don't really know.
Anytime there's a God, there has to be a devil. And anytime there's good, there has to be evil. And the evil sometimes is the best!
The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
The devil is busy and trying to distort and adulterate the things that are the pure essence of God.
Because we don't see the evil destroyed now and thus experience the suffering that evil inevitably inflicts, we are tempted to doubt God's existence and goodness.
