With regard to some comments posted above-

* Hindus do eat beef in south India but not in north where they believe that cow is akin to mother for her milk being consumed by humans.

* Pagan believes in many gods as gendered personification of different attributes of one Supreme e.g. wisdom, beauty, power. Whereas Christians/ Muslims believe that God has appointed different cherubs, angels, genie with certain duties to look after the welfare of his creation. Holy books say Satan is one fallen angel with super powers who was once the dearest to God.Shouldn’t he have extinguished him?
