Dear Christians and Muslims who use Lemmy, you all believe in an evil entity that did not obey God. It‘s Satan for the Christian’s and Shaitan for the Muslims.

But does he have a weakness? How do you not fall into the devil‘s trap?

Edit: I forgot to say that my intention here isn’t really “religious”. I‘m just working on a story which includes the devil

    Following what I have learned during my Catholic upbringing:

    Spearfighting.

    One of the neighbouring churches we went to was named after St. Michael and has this totally kick-ass statue on the side altar showing St. Michael stabbing the evil devil/dragon thing with his spear.

    Apart from that, almost all Christians where I live don’t believe in Satan as an actual entity, but more as a helpful symbol to illustrate the abstract concept of evil.

    Church in my region generally revolves more around the positive compassionate concept of “Be nice to each other” than relying on a supernatural bogeyman that tries to lay you traps.
