Satan comes to us as an "angel of light". He is very deceptive, and only comes to steal, kill and destroy. So beware of the wiles of the devil! He beguiles and deceives.

The Greeks? Why are they so special?

Well, the bible mentions satan having horns. He is portrayed as having animal characteristics because humanity (we) feels the need to deny that we too are animals. That would be a huge blow to the ego wouldn't it?

Yes the snake issues and the demon appearances where symbolisims, for example the snake was the lowest traveling creatur and very deadly therefor , the symbolization was that Lucifer would lead to a down fall so low that you where not ever going to rise again on your own two feet and that falling into Lucifers hold would lead to your spiritual death or the seperation from God forever as the second death is often taken seriously but should only be taken as a permanent seperation from God.
Everything in the bible is "imagery" Satan is NOT an animal at all! Satan does not exist....it's the dark forces that exist...it's what keeps us from our mission on earth, "material", "money", "ego" and so on.....but hell and satan are things that does not exist in a physical way!
Not true Lucifer was an angle in heaven "The Son Of The Morning" He led a rebellion based on lust for that which God possesed and when he was cast out he began the attacking of men to get at God cause his creation of man was most cherished to him in Lucifers eyes since he cant destroy God and is soon to be forever imprisioned he has set out to destroy the cherished creation not by death but by having them turn from God, using that very free will that was first given to the angels and was thought by Lucifer to not be worthy of man's , Lucifer was jealous of man for the gift that was originally given to those closest to God in Heaven, he thought man didnt deserve such a cherished item.

I believe the reason why everybody sees satan the way they see him today is because of the stereotype written behind him. Umm, The horns came from the goat. I do not know where 13 and 666 came from. Also, I do not know where the goat head came from either. I would like to know though. It would be pretty interesting.

They see it that way because they read the bible and misinterpreted it.
I've heard about crossbreed genetics in ancient times, when they were very evoluted in Atlantis...the created human-animals via cloning and genetics that caused weird species coming out of it....they worshipped them, but that is just one of many theories hehe
