If God and Satan exists, wouldn't Satan be the libertarian freedom-fighter?

    No, more like the self-centered, egotistical, malicious, back stabbing son that ries to usurp his fathers throne.

    The Bible describes Satan as a real person who exists in the invisible spirit realm. (Job 1:6) It tells us about his vicious and ruthless qualities as well as his evil actions. (Job 1:13-19; 2:7, 8; 2 Timothy 2:26) It even records conversations that Satan had with God and with Jesus.—Job 1:7-12; Matthew 4:1-11.

    Where did such an evil being come from? Long before man existed, God created his “firstborn” Son, who eventually came to be known as Jesus. (Colossians 1:15) In time, other “sons of God,” called angels, were created. (Job 38:4-7) All were perfect and righteous. However, one of those angels would become Satan.

    Satan was not his given name at the time of his creation. It is a descriptive name, which means “Adversary; Enemy; Accuser.” He came to be called Satan because he chose a life course in opposition to God.

    Feelings of pride and rivalry toward God grew within this spirit creature. He wanted others to worship him. When God’s firstborn Son, Jesus, was on the earth, Satan even attempted to get Jesus to “do an act of worship” to him.—Matthew 4:9.

    Considering that according to the bible he gave us the ability to think freely through the forbidden fruit and killed almost nobody compared to god then yes. I would rather be supporting the freedom fighter than the tyrant ruling out of fear and murder no matter what the punishment.

    No, Satan would be the reactionary client of corporate welfare at the expense of the poor and working classes.

    That, is what Satanist portrait him to be, freedom from that tyrant g-o-d person, too free like a loose screw. People adopt the idea for fiction, I happened to read one.

    Actually so called "libertarians" are mostly believers in strict and uniform **CONTROL OF OTHERS**. they believe in forcing "their" views on society via laws, regulations and strict controls, under the false "guise" of freedom.

    No Satan wants us to go to the hell fire with him, he wants us to do evil in our lives.
