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?

I believe there is a satan/devil and evil out there.

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.

I don't believe in Satan or Santa.

Satan's real.

lol no. But you need a mysterious boogeyman to instill fear in people & keep them under control.

They have the exact same letters for a reason lol

The devil is quite real.

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

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.

LOL I got my son a Chuck Norris poster with some of these sayings. Some of them are really funny.

I believe Satan is real and that it manifests in any way it wants to.

Lucifer definetly walks amongst us or else some people are just born evil.

I'm not above thinking one doesn't exclude the other.

I believe that the devil exists!
