    So God cursed Satan to crawl on his belly forever and Satan is like LOL I’ll transform to a different shape? Seems like a weak God.

      The way I was told the story, satan wasn’t cursed. He was just banned from the garden of eden. So he disguised himself as a snake, slithered into the garden, slithered up the tree, and started convincing eve to eat the apple.

        Wait, if he was banned, who the fuck would he be fooling by disguising himself? God is the one who banned him and would know who he was. Otherwise if he didn’t disguise himself, what - the only 2 people in the universe would tell on him?

        Sounds like a stupid interpretation of an already bad fable

        Yahweh’s powers differed quite a bit in the fables especially back when he was just one of the pantheon of gods. But still
