Is this what our education has come to?
tempt
tem(p)t/Submit
verb
entice or attempt to entice (someone) to do or acquire something that they find attractive but know to be wrong or not beneficial.
Someone does not in the least need to want to do it in order to be tempted by someone to do it. If someone offers you chocolate to lie for you, they tempted you with chocolate. Even if you are allergic and hate chocolate and laugh at their face and never once considered doing it.

...it talks about an issue that has always been a weird one to me. I've NEVER been tempted to worship Satan and I think that at least no Christian person would be. But then why was Christ himself tempted to worship the Devil? If the Devil appeared before any Christian on earth and asked them to worship him, I don't think that 1 would be tempted. So why was Jesus tempted when the Devil talked to him and asked Jesus to worship him?

God playing man, or man pretending to be god?
Same old question. A paradox with no solution after 1,000 years of debate by people much smarter than anybody here.

Jesus was not tempted to worship satan.
satan came to Jesus and demanded to be worshipped because
he(satan) knew he is the 'God of this world'.(he's not)
Jesus knew that , and rebuked him straight up.
Tempt the real God at your peril .
Everyone gets tempted .
To rebuke is your best/only option.
THAT is Jesus like....

It's good to see your problem isn't isolated.

Then here it is straight out. You won't except being told
you're wrong and it doesn't matter how many tell you.
You give even words a meaning that suits your whacky
thoughts and desires and further more your conclusions
are demented. And you're most likely trolling.
To your credit, you do have a flag.
"good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things." - Matthew 12:35

On the inside you know that makes no sense, even though you are tempted to agree, you wont - meaning you have the desire to agree.
