The Devil is in the same exact place as God.
Both reside in the collective intentions, actions and knowedge of man, and they are in a constant struggle with each other.
Every action you take affects the lives and decisions of countless people around you and each one of those actions that were affected by your action affects many more.
It is an endless collection of ripples interacting in an infinite pool of time.
Let's call all those influences combined at any given moment the Collective Subconscious Force.
That force, though it can not been seen, heard, measured or quantified, certainly has very real effects.
It ran through the deep south many years ago and convinced people to lynch niggers.
It pulled people together at home to gather their efforts and cooperate while their sons and husbands were off fighting World War II.
It made Michael Jackson a star.
It made Michael Jackson a pitiful laughing stock.
It can not be seen by human eyes, but people can feel its presence.
It is omnipotent: It can force the hands of man and turn the tides of fate. It can not be stopped or contained. No one man can control it, but every man can influence it -it hears the prayers of every man, and responds accordingly.
It is omniscient: It is the sum of the knowledge, wisdom, experience and emotions of everyone, past and present. There is nothing that happens that it does not know about. There is nothing that has happened that it does not remember. It can predict the future (though, with enough concerted effort from man, that future is not inevitable).
It is omnibenevolent: It contains the sum all the benevolent influences of mankind.
It is omnipresent: There is no place man can go without being affected by it.
It is eternal: It has existed since man the dawn of man's consciousness. As long as man exists, it will exist.
It creates man in it's own image.
Every attribute of God and the Devil, every bible story, every ideal and ideology can be ascribed to the Collective Subconscious Force.
