Is There Evil Greater Than the Devil?





The devil might be our enemy, as the holy book says. They refused god's order and were cursed to live in hell for eternity. Among the devil there are some corrupted angels who were said to be the leader of demon's army. Yes, it is the morning star, Lucifer. Now this is confusing. Many religious person said god is forgiving, and yet he's pissed at the devil for eternity only because they made one mistake.


Just because the devil made one mistake, god accused them as the main source of evil and the archenemy of every god's servant. Human beings have lived for thousand years believing that god's judgment is perfectly correct. But as we investigate further, we may find that the most evil entity may be god himself.


Let's start from the devil's request. The devil asked for equality, and that pissed god for eternity. Does equality was so bad that it made anything to be cursed eternally? I must say that cursing somebody would never make our judgment to be true. Reason and evidence are ways to confirm our conclusion. Equality is not an eternal evil providing that even humans are struggling for it today. We knew that slavery and racism were bad things. We cursed and condemned anybody who still practises it. But obviously, we are wrong if we say that slavery and racism are the devil's traits. Equality definitely contradicts slavery and racism.


We may ask what is wrong with god to hate equality so much. Actually, equality is not working if you consider the big picture in reality. If everything is equal, than there will be no distinction between good and evil, god and creature, president and civilians, and so on. Everything will be identical and there is nobody above anybody. The truth is everybody has different properties or attributes with everybody else. This fact makes equality absurd, as the fact shows everybody is different.


While the fact shows everybody is different, we should know that differences also include equality. If everybody is different from everybody else, then the statement contradicts itself. It will be the same for everybody that nothing is equal to everybody else. That makes it in certain aspect, everybody is the same as everybody else.


But this cannot be the case since the last statement contradicts "everybody is different from everybody else". Equality is assumed in that contradicting statement.


Then how is this useful for a dispute between the devil and god? We may question god about his reaction to devil's request, but the devil itself is absurd. They may have some common properties or attributes with human beings, but they are not equal in every properties or attributes. There are some differences. One of the difference is that the devil is the main source of evil and human beings stand in between good and evil. Is it possible that god's creation could be the main source of something?


Since god is the devil's creator, the devil's traits must be caused by god. There is no possibility that the effect gains something that is not from the cause. If it is possible, then nothingness can produce something, but this is not the case since there is nothing in nothingness to enable it to produce something. So, being must come from being, being must be produced by being. In this case, the devil's evilness must comes from its sole creator, which is god.


If god accuses the devils as the main source of evil, he should know that this implied he is not the creator of the devil. But this is absurd since he claims to be the creator of the devil. Those two statements contradict each other. If god is the creator, then he is the main source of evil.

The main source of evil must be the essence of evil. Since it's the essence, there's nothing more evil than it. God as the creator must be the essence of evil to allow evil exists in this world. But this seems to contradict notion that god also creates good. If god is the essence of evil, how could he created good?


I don't think that in this case, evil is simply lack of good quality. Since god accused the devil to be the main source of evil, evil must have a positive nature. To be a source of something means that there is something that flows from it. In this case, evil is something that flows from the devil.


If good and evil can coexist, it must be that they share the same properties or attributes. In this case, it will be that good and evil shares their main source. The source must be able to contain two contrary properties to be able to let good and evil flows from it. Something that leads to two contrary or contradicts statement is a paradox. Therefore, the source must be a paradox. If god is the main source of good and evil, it must be that whether the notion of god is paradoxical or inquiry into the nature of god will lead to the area where logic is not willing to go.
