You would be wrong there, for a significant part of the time.

If atheists don't believe in God, they don't believe in Satan either. And if it turns out God does exist, why would atheists turn to Satanists?
You are confused with your bad guys.

I don’t believe in the God of the bible or in Satan. But if the God of the bible does exist, he has a lot of explaining to do. He makes rules that are good for a great deal of people, but which are bad for others. He creates and seemingly condones the torture of many of his creations. Certainly, if the God of the bible does exist, then no rational person would turn towards Satan. But what exactly makes the God of the bible much better than the Satan of the bible? God gives us life after death, but what good is that if a great deal of us, particularly us good people, who simply can’t believe in him without some small shred of evidence, are destined to an eternity of punishment?
Again, Mickey, your point is well taken, why would I turn to Satanism, if God exists? No way. I just want some answers from God. Where is this God and why doesn’t he supply answers, even though during the course of my life, I’ve prayed and asked him for answers some thousand times or more. I’ve just received no reply.
