the devil
do you believe in satan/a devil... or do you believe that the character is just a representation of evil/sin/wrong doing and humanity's selfish desires?

Re: the devil
If you're gonna have love, ther's gonna be hate. If you're gonna have good you're gonna have evil. Now, does satan walk amongst us and "possess" the souls of folks? I don't think he does so on a physical level. I think people like to think they are possessed to justify their actions.

Re: the devil
More towards the latter, but I believe there is evil out there. Why not call it the devil?

Re: the devil
I believe that Christian Mythology borrowed heavily from Greek Mythology and the whole Lucifer/Satan battle with God for control and being expelled to Hell looks identical to Zeus and his bro Hades fighting and Hades also being sent to rule the underworld. (Which, in Greek sphere of reference were those lava filled hot places - literally Brimstone)
May be a good metafor for the battle between good & evil - yin & yang in the world of duality. But as for the red guy with horns & pitchfork - makes for good fiction like vampires and werewolves.

I believe the Devil is a real being, but as far as the Boogeyman, did you know that The Boogeyman checks his own closet every night for Chuck Norris before he goes to bed??

Actually, all this talk about the Boogeyman reminds me of something. I think one of the scariest things in the world that can exist is a serial killer that people either don't know about, or don't remember. My mother told me when she was a kid in the 50s, where they lived nobody bothered locking their doors, and there was a man who went around going into people's houses and killing people, his preference seemed to be killing old women in the bathtub, and he was called the Boogeyman, and he was never caught. And I tried looking on Google to see if there are any records of the case...absolutely nothing, no mention of a killer working under the nickname the Boogeyman.
