Satan has always wanted children to die

When you look at the way this has happened across all cultures and areas of the globe it becomes apparent that there is some force behind it.

 

When we look at the way WHAT has happened across all cultures ? People of all ages die every second. Is this some sort of anti-abortion rant ?

 

Babies are annoying.

 

It isn't Satan who demands blood sacrifice. It's God.

 

People of all ages die every second, yes. That is not what those links describe though. Sacrificing children has been done in almost all cultures and all areas of the globe. How do you explain something that is so counter to survival instinct happening so often?

 

There are plenty of "gods" listed in those links to whom the sacrifices were made. It is my belief that satan was behind all those false gods like Baal.

The real God demands a blood sacrifice too, his son Jesus Christ made that sacrifice and paid the price for all sins. No more blood sacrifices are necessary.

 

Can you support this assertion biblically? It's no secret I don't recognize the authority of the Bible, but I'm wondering if you - or your preacher - have a biblical basis for linking Satan with blood sacrifice for any reason other than conveniently propping up long-discredited propaganda and urban legends.

Hypothetically presuming divine inspiration to the scriptures, it would seem that Satan's relation the the indigenous pagan deities of Mesopotamia, the Middle East and Egypt would be important enough to clairify somewhere... anywhere. But especially in the Old Testament, we see the Judaic view of Satan - best exemplified in the book of Job - where Satan is little more than God's lap dog, acting only within the strict limits of what God tells him he can do. Nowhere is Satan's connection to Baal, Moloch, et al stated or implied.

As long as we're posting Wikipedia links, it might be worth a moment to familiarize yourself with "blood libel:"

At the moment that article is admittedly pretty weak. So here's another to help get the point across:

"Satanic Ritual Abuse" hoax was basically an offshoot of the old blood libel scam, which its proponents attempted to separate from the old slanders by insisting that this time it was really, really real. But since fake accusations based on nothing inevitably crumble when confronted by facts and evidence, the panic subsided and the media quietly shuffled along to the next big scandal. Even goofball Geraldo Rivera - to his credit -eventually recanted his own participation in the whole ridiculous fiasco.

Ongoing belief in satanic ritual abuse is now pretty much isolated to the tinfoil hat crowd (see Mark Dice, David Icke, et cetera). Even the wiser Christian leaders know better than to beat this embarassing dead horse. Only the worst kind of politically-motivated evangelists continue to push this garbage.

 

What differentiates your "real God" from the others? The fact that you were born into it?

 

Ba'al was the basis for the hebrew god Yahweh.
