TIL Satan is a genie.
Also, in these games, the folks going for "more wishes" are shooting low. The only wish you need, which also defeats the monkey's paw, is "grant me omnipotence."
But: this is Satan we're talking about. The Deciever, The Traitor. Not only is this a monkey-paw situation, but a Christian Satan is going to actively try to decieve you.
I don't think I'd even trust his answer about whether there's a cost, so I'd pass on the winning lotto numbers, too.
I'd say, "no thanks" and immediately convert to Catholicism, start going to church, and lead a clean life from here on out. If the orthodox Jews are right, I'm fucked anyway since my mother isn't a Jew, so Christianity is the best bet.
I thought if Judaism is correct gentiles can avoid Gehennom (purgatory) by following the 7 noahide laws?
Dunno. I haven't studied it; all my info comes from informal conversations with a jewish friend of mine, a long time ago. I could also be misremembering what he said.
It's something I would look into, if faced with confirmation of a judao-christian afterlife, especially if I could concurrently cover multiple bases. I'd look at Islam, as well; could be they're not mutually exclusive. I dread to think of how limited my diet would become... but faced with an ensured eternity in hell ¯\(ツ)/¯
Since it's impossible to determine whether any given answer is true or not, the logical course of action is to only ask question with observably objective answers. Examples:
- What are the next lottery numbers?
- Will it rain tomorrow?
- Where was the exact location of Troy during the Greek war?
Things like that.
- 1 67 8 10 5 (doesn't specify where)
- Yes (doesn't specify where)
- Gives you exact coordinates to a town called Troy in the US that existed during the Greek civil war of the 1950s
Why is your father such a childish fuckwit?
Why does he let you act equally/more powerful?
Can I have an Audi RS6 Avant with unlimited fuel and tyres?
I wouldn't have any questions, just immediate concern.
I'd start looking for the nearest mental health facility and check myself in due to having visual and auditory hallucinations.
There is no devil.
Interesting, as an atheist I think the same way too, there is a greater probability that you are insane that there is for a Personal God existing, but I am not sure my attitude is the best, I mean, even if there was a real God and he came before me, I would count myself insane. i.e., Nothing can trump this argument if you believe in this, sounds a bit close minded to me, I don't know what the right way is either.
Seems like in that situation the first question to ask is if the devil is real
How do I know it's the devil OP? Couldn't it be God or some other entity? How would I know?
Well it looks and sounds like the stereotypical devil. But you're right, maybe it's not actually.
