@Raafje84 "Evil is the result of what happends when man does not have gods love present in his heart."

Not so, one can be evil and yet be strongly religious, even believing they are acting out of any number of gods' love

People can also be very good and at the same time vehemently antireligious. the only correlation between the two is that for an intrisically good person to do something bad, it takes religion to inspire them to do it.

@moeazysgc If you're going to call someone a dumb ass, please use proper spelling and grammar.

@moeazysgc You are a metaphor for an idiot.

@moeazysgc "Omg Are you that ignorant n stupid the snake is the Devil/Satan you dumb ass!"

I get that you are claiming that but for some reason you can't see the several reasons that doesn't make sense.

Answer the most obvious one. If the snake was the devil in disguise then why is it that all species of snakes received the punishment of leglessness and the devil didn't.

Either god was fooled by the devil or it was an actual snake.

Think for a second about these myths

@ProcInc Omg Are you that ignorant n stupid the snake is the Devil/Satan you dumb ass! And no in my believe Adam n Eve did not get punished or banished from heaven n they repent n were forgiven by God! It was the will of God to sent them to earth to test them n their offspring! God gave us free will(the choice to rebel or to submit to his will)! Satan the devil choose to rebel n is dammed to hell for eternity on the day of Judgement! but Mankind will be judge accordingly on that day!

@moeazysgc "Did not the snake deceive Adam n Eve into eat the forbidden fruit "

Not according to you. You are saying the devil did and the snake was only a metaphor.

Snakes got punished, not the devil. Unless of course you are saying your god is so stupid that he fell for the trick and punished an innocent species instead.

@ProcInc Did not the snake deceive Adam n Eve into eat the forbidden fruit well the Devil/Satan is the one who deceived Adam n Eve still deceives Mankind to this day n until judgement day!!

@moeazysgc "The snake is a metaphor for the devil/Satan/Iblis/Lucifer!"

That wouldn't make any sense since the story attempts to explain why snakes don't have legs. The primitive culture that came with that story tried to explain it that way, we now know that it is simple a result of natural selection favouring the abortion of atrophied limbs in ancient burrowing/swimming lizards.

Either way it is nowhere implied that the snake is the Devil. it would make no sense since snakes were punished

[moeazysgc]

@Gravija1980 The snake is a metaphor for the devil/Satan/Iblis/Lucifer! Satan is not Angel but a demon made of smokeless fire(jinns) this is Satan (the devil)! also the bible contradicts if Angles are created to perfectly obey God n can not disobey ever then Satan was not angel but a creature elevated to the status like the Angels! Satan had no authority or power but what God allowed him! Satan rebel's against the command of God the was banished from heaven n awaits hell on the day of Judgement!
