Why don't you worship this Satan god then, he seems to be much smarter than the God bloke you follow, in fact, with all due respect, it sounds like he's tied your God up in knots and left him for dead, how many days does the bible say it took Satan to undo all of your Gods good work ?

I'll ask around at our local RC church tomorrow, are all of their priests still kiddie-fiddlers, was it your God that told them to do that as well ?

Not that I'm a regular defender of RC clergy, but you're much more likely to be 'kiddie-felt' by non-religious, secular teachers than a priest of any denomination.

Satan didn't outsmart God, he just capitalised upon God's gift of Free Will.

Nope, you told us that he invented virus's, tiny little specks of life so small that you can't see them and yet each one is far, far smarter than any human that your god ever made and every time your god guides a man towards finding a "fix" for one of these Satan virus's, then the design that Satan made just goes and mutates them again, and back they come for another fight, just like the Zulus at Rorkes Drift.

I'll give you Kudos for the Rourke's Drift citation. However, it doesn't mean that Satan is smarter than God. Sin (and Satan's real power) only entered the world after the creation.

We are slaves to sin and cannot resolve every problem we face, including disease. All we can do is place our faith in Jesus.

Religion is a terrifying thing. It always amazes me how brainwashed some people are. It's easy to see how people can be convinced to do terrible acts in the name of religion

Indeed, you seem to be in agreement with me that this satan has so far managed to outfox your god at every opportunity by inventing things that your god cannot reverse, clever bloke.

What does this satan look like anyway, in all of the paintings I've seen of him he looks a bit swarthy, is that correct ?

You have to take what you can get in the current climate. He offers a kick-ass pension plan, too.

Possibly not. It does, however, make mincemeat out of your argument that all Scientists carry baggage because they have 'removed God'. No wonder you're flailing around attempting to change the argument.

Enough.
