The creation of the universe is itself a cataclysmic action, as are the violence in the initiation and tearing apart of stars, 2 or 3 of which had to evolve before the Sun hence its metal content. Yet such upheaval does not demonstrate Satan but rather the way in which God develops the universe.
Our “expereince” in the universe, such as it is, extends actually some distance as we can see deeply back into the reaches of distance and hence time to some very early instances of creation. God is perhaps most plain in that “nothing comes from nothing”. Yet quantum uncertainty keeps us from knowing its earliest onset. M-Theory suggests that the “multiverse” is like a loaf of bread: cut into slices, each one separated eternally out of contact with the other. The weakness of gravity however, compared to the three other known physical forces operating in our universe, suggests that some sort of transfer mechanism possibly acts between them, which yields the hope that some semblance of that ever deeper aspect of our existence may yet be learned.
God is in these details. Though I can’t prove it, I’d yet lay a considerably higher probability for as against it.
Though still throughout, no Satan. Or at least no evidence for one. It’s possible that some other intelligence in another galaxy perceives of some sort of devil giving rise to the structural problems of its existence as well. But its challenge to demonstrate it outside of its own experience would nonetheless remain the same.
It is also quite possible that Satan is bound to earth (depending on how Scripture is interpreted). And given that interpretation, I have seen considerable circumstantial evidence.
As an aside, my favorite aunt, now deceased, was a clinical psychologist at a state mental hospital her an entire career and, though she was, well, clinical by nature, she spoke to me several times of what she called a dark, oppressive aspect of certain of the patients under her care...something beyond mere human illness. I often find myself wondering what she would think of Obama.
Except that the Heavenly Father has Isaiah pen His purpose/plan specifically referring back to Genesis 1:2. Isaiah 45:17 over all plan.... "But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
Some peoples may not like it or accept it but this can only be referencing that tree of life Christ, Emmanuel, God with us, that Moses said was in the Garden of God along with the symbolic tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Isaiah 45:18 Why the act of creation is NOT result of cataclysmic action.... For thus saith the LORD That created the heavens; God Himself That formed the earth and made it; He hath established it, He created it NOT in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
There would be NO need to declare and state obvious facts by the Heavenly Father if there was no impostor/deceiver on the horizon.
