Interesting question. My coven will summon a demon and ask. We will get back to you.

I am an atheist but I like to vote in polls.

Tell us about your belief in the Devil regardless of your religion. What does he look like and what does he do?

If you do believe in God but not a Devil why one and not the other ?

I was kidding about the coven. I did not actually read the posting rules on here but I am going to guess summoning demons is frowned upon. But seriously however that works in Paganism tell us about that.

If you are Luciferian tell us about that.

In the pagan tradition I follow of folk practitioner/ trad craft along with some Norse polytheism it gets a bit complicated.

In terms of my relationship with any gods the devil has no equivalent or any involvement at all.

In my witchcraft/ folk magick there is the folkloric devil which is basically anything the church didn't approve of or even decided is the devil because reasons.

"You got that from your ancestors? Well that is really the devil deceiving you, you filthy peasant"

You had a connection with a spirit.....well that was the devil.

Called on a saint the wrong way?......the devil.

Claim you spoke with an angel?.......the devil.

Got that from a local folk magician.....the devil.

Starting to see a pattern?

My username here is actually taken from the transcript of the witch trial of Bessie Dunlop who claimed she learned her craft from a ghost named Thom Reid.
