Question: Do you think there is a difference between evil and Satanic!?
Evil - the human impulse of doing ill will for the "fun" of it!.

Satanic - Praise Satan!

I ask this question because where I live, if the band is not Christian then they are Satanic!. I personally believe that is incredibly close-minded but I would like to know what you think!. It's okay to disagree with me, I won't discriminate against your answer because you disagree!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think they reserve the word "evil" for those religious people who can be good or evil , because they believe that in every human being there is a good side and evil side and by being religious you try to keep that "good" side all the time!.
in the case of "satanic", if a person is not religious at all so it's not longer a question of good and evil because those people are considered as the "sons" of Satan (evil himself)
don't pay attention to close-minded people!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some people are comforted by simplistic answers and definitions of complicated ideas!. The simpler the person, the more they cling to simplistic ideas and the safety in thinking of the world as "black and white"!.

You seem to live in an area with many of those simple people!. Of course there's a difference, and as soon as you move to civilization you'll discover that the rest of the world already knows this!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I for one, don't think of Satan as a being!. I just looked up the definition and Rather like the Baha'i Faiths way of thinking!.
In the Baha'i Faith, 'Satan' is not regarded as an independent evil power as he is in some faiths, but signifies the "base nature" of humans!. `Abdu'l-Bahá explains: "This lower nature in man is symbolized as Satan -- the evil ego within us, not an evil personality outside!."[17]Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, some people who are part of the religion called "Satanism" and are therefore "Satanists", don't think Satan and evil go together!. To them, Satan does not represent evil or anything like that, in fact, they may think of Satan the same way that Christians think of God!. So it really depends on one's definition of Satanic!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
