Not sure what the purpose of this thread is but it sounds like you are asking if the bad that may come in ones life is really a blessing, and if that is what your asking then yes.
Satan, specifically Lucifer never was evil, just followed a different nature than it's peers.
If you swimming in the ocean and a shark bites your leg off, was it evil or simply following it's natural instinct? There are many entities, some actually evil, most following their natural path of exploration that just so happens to be uncommon to you or I, then with the lack of knowledge regarding said entity, our brains tells us it's evil or "not good" when really its just what the entity does in it's world.

OP
funny thing about threads like this
you mention AJ: a fear monger you say?
what the hell was noah then?
satan is just a boogie man for chidren to blame their stolen cookies on
or to blame stolen countries full of dead children on...
either way;
its an attempt at not taking responsibility for one's actions
which in an adult world is upside down...or backwards...or something

If you screw up then you have to fix your screw up:s. Good for you OP that you can see beyond the temporary since all souls are works in progress going from one state to another. I cannot love what some people are right now since they have extreme ego/self/demonic behavioral tendencies that they cannot control vs the ones who seem to have learned a greater control. I myself a mix of both. But I can love what they will become one day when they have fixed what they have broken.
In Judaism they talk about "the path of pain" vs "the path of the Torah". So yes, the enlightenment and liberation can probably be attained to a large extent without suffering. But when you fall astray God comes and kicks you in the butt so that you find the right path in any case.
This place might be good for you to evolve spiritually since you will have a lot of heavy spiritual weight to carry that will make your soul strong just like weightlifting makes a physical body stronger. But there is the harmonious ways to evolve to en-light-ment (light/chi flow) where you do not need to have so much external opposite to master to gain control over self.
