What is the relationship between Satan and evil?
Satan usually makes people commit evil; he does this by taking over human's souls and pressuring them to sin. Evil is what Satan embodies.
What purpose does Satan serve?
Satan serves as a balancing force of evil; the opposite force is good. Satan serves as the main antagonist against good.
What can we say about Biblical depictions of Satan/Devil?
As far as physical depictions of the Devil goes, his appearance ranges from a several-headed beast, to an unseen spirit that can take control of man's soul (if I'm not mistaken). However, the goals, despite whatever form the Devil may take, remain the same: to corrupt and torture man.
Do you believe in Satan? If yes, how would you describe Satan? If no, why do you think people do believe in Satan?
I don't believe in Satan. I think people believe in Satan simply because they were taught by the content of their respective religion that Satan does exist.
