Satan or God? Who is the bigger asshole?

There’s been something on my mind lately and what better way to express it than to bring it the blog? It is satire for the most part, but if you’re of the easily offended persuasion then you’d be best going elsewhere.

God or Yahweh… whatever you’re disposed to calling him, is someone whom most everyone brought up under the Judeo Christian religion, has been taught to admire. He is benevolent. Pure in every way. The ultimate superhero. The devil, or Satan is the opposite of that. He is malevolent. God’s arch nemesis and the ultimate villain. That’s the general belief anyway.

I for one find it difficult to understand why we’re expected to believe that a being who led millions of innocents to be slaughtered, condemned to death those who opposed, ostracized whole groups and dwarfed Hitler’s feeble attempt at human destruction when he killed all the living of the world, sparing only a select few, is the epitome of good nature. To compare, what is Satan’s death toll? It doesn’t even come close to coming close to god’s.

 

Why then, is God the murderer worshiped, while the devil, who is a saint by comparison, viewed as the lowest of the low?

The answer? Religious logic. It is the human brain high on religion.
