From a religious point of view, if Satan is allowed to do this, does it mean God has no power to stop him?

I will start with this. If you simply refer to the book of Job you will have your answer. God is allowed to test us but we are not allowed to test him. God let Satan do anything he wanted to Job to test him but he was not allowed to kill or touch Job. Job passes his test even losing his entire family in the process. I personally have been tested by God. God has the authority to stop Satan if he chooses of course.

"Satan hid the fossils there to trick people".
Because I find it hard to believe, that would be a lot of trouble to go through, and why would this be allowed?
I will try to approach this from a religion perspective. If you believe this, then it brings up other questions for me.

If Satan buried all the fossils, then are any/all scientific discoveries also tricks?
Is there any proof of this in the bible?
If you believe that Satan could have buried the fossils, is it not also possible that Satan made up a lie about burying the fossils to trick christians into not believing in evolution?
If Satan buried fossils, has God buried stuff as well?
*As a note, I understand not all christians believe this.
**For the purpose of discussion, it is assumed that the God theory is valid, as to reach a further line of though on this subject.
***This is not a christian bashing thread, so please refrain yourself from belittling those who are religious, categorizing them all with a wide brush, or reducing them to only to their religion.
****I am not a religious person trying to further religious beliefs, I am just curious about this subject.
