Give Satan his due. He has a jolly good sense of humor. Ensnaring hundreds of millions of people with a fat old man dyed orange head to toe?

Not a hunk. Not a drop-dead handsome guy. But the opposite.

In that I believe Satan flaunts his power. He picks the least the worst the ugliest the creepiest lure and millions fall for it?

To his great delight I bet. No matter what Satan does there are certain homo saps who will buy it die for it murder for it support it defend it protect it.

Satan is a lot smarter than those he dupes. Of course.
