The logical extension is that the serpent is a reference to gay activity toward Adam.
If you believe there is a Satan, you might think that because she exists, she is good.
Biblically illiterate imbecile.
Amos 8:11

Satan is the personification of the worst of evils: that of vanity.
Not just looking in a mirror and calling yourself beautiful, real vanity is very specific. It means comparing yourself to God and claiming god-like powers beyond what you are.
In the philosophy of the Pentateuch, God is the creator of all things. He does this directly, not through agents or representatives, though is not exclusive about the maintenance or manipulation of His creations.
Mankind performs its own function within creation: that of labeling and describing creation with abstracts. But neither angels such as Lucifer, nor mankind, can create anything. Everything we seemingly create is either just maintenance or manipulation or description of what already has been created.
As such, the pretense and assertion that we do create is the oldest of sins. Vanity is also the one sin resulting most consistently in punishment in the Pentateuch. While the assumption is that this punishment is “from Heaven”, it could also be imagined that vanity creates its own punishment without the need for Heavenly intervention.
Philosophers have never been happy with the idea that God is the exclusive creator, because they crave for mankind to be part of the process of creation. Unless mankind can “do” creation, there is little for philosophers themselves to do. So over time, philosophy tends to become atheist.
Did Lucifer exist? Does he still exist as Satan? Good questions. But even if he is no longer, he still performs a very useful role of reminding us of the hazards of vanity. His manifestation is all about vanity, of a very specific kind.
I don’t want to be standing next to this drooling half witted demonic creature on Judgement Day.

Next week’s article: Scientists determine exactly how many angels can dance on the head of a pin!
True as with some of his other points.
However it is in the Gospels Mark and Luke that Satan tried to tempt Jesus.
For some reason I feel like this subject has come up before here.
Seeing all the scientists involved with the global warming hoax, I am less inclined to believe anything a scientist may claim.
Further I’ve learned not to take spiritual advice from atheists who despise my faith. Which is very likely the case here.
He spent 40 years researching Hillary? Well I don’t think she’s good.
This guy is in for a lot of woe.
Maybe he should meditate on what Jesus said about Satan........as Jesus is the ultimate authority on scripture and everything else.....
Wow.
Hell’s minions are getting more and more blatant.
Satan is walking among us, making rude gestures, and we refuse to see him.
