How do you know the devil didn't write the bible?

Oh, I believe that the devil has written some bibles....(I'm not talking different translations, but, what would fit into "other).

The Bible, certainly, doesn't cast Satan into a good light....why would he want to write something that did that? Besides, at the end, he loses.

He doesn't lose..... If he wrote All Religous texts including the bible. The worst enemy stabs you in the face not in the back. If Gods real plan was to create everyone and then back off and help when needed then the devil could have wrote the bible discised as God and started all the horrible chain of events that where started by religons. Such as the Inquasition and witch hunts also the radical extreemest that use a bible as a tool to convince others to d wrongs.

BTW what does that even mean?
A combination of chemical reactions in your brain as a reaction to another living being never fails?

My response will be somewhat off topic but it does have to do with the devil. I recently pondered why Satan didn't assassinate Jesus before he made it to the cross to be executed. Christians give Satan alot of credit, he's responsible for all kinds of things and has supernatural powers.
People may say, well god wouldn't allow satan to do this...well god allowed satan to bring about the fall of man to begin with! That's a major hit...god doesn't seem to stop people or satan from doing what they want.

But, he did try in the form of Herod.

It's quite possible that the Devil did write the Bible. To know if he did or not, would require faith in Satan. Although belief that Satan wrote the Bible would end up condemning all of Christianity because of improper teachings, unless there was a deistic god in place, which didn't care what we followed, or just some other type of less evil vendictive god.

God, Satan, Krishna, Homeless people, Rabbits, Dragons, Elves, Random Collaboration of particles of rocks, all could've written the Bible. I suppose all of these things could've also "inspired" the writing of the Bible, since God didn't "write" the Bible, it was mainly just "inspired" by the Holy Ghost. I'm sure some would disagree with that, but whatever.

It's a good thought considering one cannot trust what one reads. I'd probably just find my own religion, if I were you. One can never know of any type of deital creation out there, writing who knows what. "Just have faith in what you believe is right. It's about all you'll find without the confusion of others."

Btw, anyone mentioning "love" or any type of emotion as a possible answer, is just giving "feelings" not proof. Just.. try to ignore those.

We're talking about one of the most powerful supernatural beings around...and all he has is up his sleeve is Herod?!

I thought satan was powerful?! He can't accomplish a simple thing...kill one human?
