Answer 5

The devil's name was originally Lucifer.  He was a beautiful and powerful angel who decided he was all that and got one third of heaven to rebel against God.  He and his followers were cast out of heaven.  Guess what? they landed on this good earth where he and his followers, former inhabitants of heaven and those of us on earth are given a choice--either repent and follow the path of righteousness or be ultimately destroyed.

Answer 6

The devil is defined differently by many people and religions.  In some he/she doesn't exist.  I personally don't believe the devil exists, at least in any physical sence, but the idea behind the word, to me is the negative inspiration that causes one to do harm.  Probably the most common deffinition however is that the devil is an angel who rebeled against god because god took away some of his power when he/she created the earth.  The devil was then cast out of heaven and fell to the pits of h**l.  Another popular mythology suggests that the devil has only the power to destroy, not to create, and to put only evil into mens minds, never good.
