I was taught that God knows all; past, present, and future.

So God knew what S/L was going to do when he created Satan/Lucifer.

All evil done by S/L/whomever was pre-approved by God.

God has been known to change mens' hearts and has been given credit for doing so.

Unless one believes that Satan is more powerful than God.

If you believe in an all knowing, all powerful, omnipotent God.

An alien who can kick everybody's ass every time and never even break a fingernail just isn't compelling fiction.
