It used to be a celebration called, "All Souls Day". Somehow it got screwed up along the way. Variation still celebrated in Mexico called, "Dia de los Muertos - Day of the Dead"

I am the devil.

err wait, no, I'm just human.
No, I don't believe in the devil.
I have no reason to believe in any devil.
For that matter, I don't believe in anything supernatural (god, spirits, ghosts, flying spaghetti monsters, etc.)

If theres a good man to inspire nearby to do the right thing, like call 911 or stop the crime altogether, I think he would. Yes you could say the man might have done it otherwise, but you did mention a hypothetical and this is my hypothetical answer. Because I think everyone can be inspired by God to do right or the Devil to do wrong.

just seems unecessary and sadistic though. an abdication of responsibility.

in order to believe in the devil , you must also beleive in a righteous god of equal or greater good. The fact is, I have not seen proof of either.

is there a god such as that in the bible? Dunno, never met anyone who came back from the dead, but I do think there is a higher power of some sort.

Do miracles happen? yes

Does great evil exist? yes

but that goes back to the great balance of the universe, or as some would call it, the great struggle between good and evil.

so no, I do not beleive in the devil.

No. When you die you become worm food.

You are judged by society and no one else.

When you die that's it...

Okay, I'm sucking the devil's c0ck right now. But I don't believe she exists.

Edit-She doesn't believe that I exist either. How's that grab you?

It is easier to believe in God than the devil and even I am not convinced of that.
