Mabus: Thank you for you eloquence and knowledge. It is my intention to have enlightened, aware individuals like you face the quandry: Can you forgive Satan?
If so, why, if not the same...

can I forgive Satan - No
God says the one unforgivable sin is the blasphemy of him, Satan lives a life of blasphemy.
If God will not forgive him, its not up to me to.

Can anyone tell me why it was the snake in the garden of eden that told the truth, not god?

When I first read the genesis I was astonished. God told Adam and Eve not to eat from the tree of life for they will die. The serpent told then that nothing alike will happen and instead they will have their "eye opened".
They ate, and their eye were opened. And they saw they were naked.
Really, good vs evil, God vs Satan - it's all a deception. It's a interdimentional game of good cop/bad cop. Two sides are bad and are working together (I know... I will fry to this).
The problem with "salvation" is that someone has to make an effort to save you where all you have to make is to resist tempations, ie. follow the word of God. Really, that is not *that complicated*. So what's the whole deal about?
I came to the conclusion that allowing yourself to be saved you stip yourself of the greater part of your individual self. Think about it.

Reason why I like Satan more is because he's not afraid to get down and dirty while Jesus has to be all saintly and prim and proper.
Satan:1
Jesus:0

John 8:44
For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies.
John 8:12
Jesus said. ""I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
1 Thessalonians 5:9
For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath (Satan) but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Lies + Wrath = Satan
Truth + Salvation = Jesus
Choose Wisely!
