    Googling the answer to if god created satan, most christian sites say something like “The Bible shows that God did not create the Devil. Instead, He created the person who became the Devil.”

    Which to be honest is kind of a flimsy copout.

    Either god is all knowing so he knew that this person is going to become satan, or god isn’t all knowing and failed to convince that person of his “goodness”. Like, the first person he actually gives the freedom of choice deciding against him doesn’t exactly look good.

      Oh God probably isn’t Omniscient, at least not in the way most Christians think God is, but i also believe that TST is actually doing God’s will and it’s the Christian religion that is serving satan so my beliefs are a bit…unorthodox.
