Are most religious questions guided by Satan?

By going down the list and seeing how confusing and/or stupid most religious questions are on here. There is no doubt to me that Satan has his foot in the door at Yahoo Answers. What do you think?

PS. To those who sincerely ask real questions on here, I mean no disrespect to you.

    Agreed.

    What I especially do not like is when satanists pose as atheists.

    There is an idea in the Bible that Satan is an "accuser" or a sort of prosecuting attorney, and Jesus is more like the defender or defense attorney. The kinds of questions Satan would ask, in that case, would be very accusatory for the purpose of punishing the accused. Jesus, on the other hand, would be interested in getting to the truth, and would be willing to consider any topic that would ultimately lead there.

    This is kind of the opposite of some modern court cases where the prosecutor is generally direct and exact while the defense throws out wild and senseless theories.

    Honest religious questions are meant to learn the truth, and are therefore not guided by Satan. Even the militant atheist does work on the side of Jesus Christ when he provokes us all to think about the meaning of our lives and beliefs. I am as thankful for those very difficult questions when they are asked earnestly. Even if we think they come from Satan, it is Satan doing the will of God because God is sovereign over all.

    Wherever we have the things of God,the devil always likes to cause confusion.But we are of a living God,we dont fear whatever the devil plot becaause by the blood of Jesus he was captured.

    Initially in one room we might have a mixed people from different religions..Religion is just but the truth i dont belong to any religion but i belong to Jesus Christ.

    We can not be disturbed by the devil to spread the good news.You can also notice that in some Christian questions about our Lord Jesus Christ and anything from the Bible you find those wicked answers from those being used by satan.Be warned you children of the devil.

    I agree with you that satan is knockin..i can not say knocking but he has found his stool inside our room.So dont be disturbedkeep on doing the good thing.

    most religion don't have Satan.

    he is a Judeo-Christian deity

    how uneducated can the Christians get?

    Zoroastrians are the first to have God and Satan like deities.

    the Hebrews emulated the Zoroastrian religion when they were in the Babylonian captivity, there they invented early monotheistic Judaism.

    The Christians and Muslims got their devil and God from the Jews.

    but other religions, like Hinduism or Buddhism don't have a Satan.

    Occam's Razor.

    If you have a choice to explain stupid questions by the influence of satan, or stupidity, it will be stupidity every time.

    Satan is an imaginary character from an old book.

    Job of religions is to assist the individual soul to attain union with God. Every civilization realized the existence of God and devised their own unique way to attain God. There is no point in criticizing the achievements of another civilizations.

  • satan likes to confuse to inflame better then that if you have divine authority you answer him so that some might be snatched from the fire

    Since satan is as imaginary as god then it is very unlikely

    if a question is religious it is stupid, because religion is the language of idiots who are incapable of comprehending their own fate.
