User blog comment:Auraestus/My view on 'God'/@comment-26347028-20160318220849

Let me just point out that 90% of the variants of Christianity don't believe in 'Satan' per se, but rather that it's metaphorical. And the one I grew up with believed that rather than torment, you simply weren't given the eternal life the Bible speaks of. So, therefore, I am in complete agreement with this. I myself believe that there is no real reasoning for a theist god to exist, and a deist one doesn't make a huge difference. Therefore, I am atheist, but not adeist - as I like to call myself.
