To us, saying Satan and Christ are brothers is like saying that Hitler and Gandhi are brothers, except that unlike Satan, Gandhi and Hitler may be saved through Christ's atoning sacrifice. Satan was once a being of high esteem and he gave it all up and fell and became nothing. This is based on what the Bible says, by the way. You won't find much in the D&C or Book of Mormon on this.

> You arent a christian.
I am not one of you, that's for sure. I believe in an follow the Jesus Christ in the Bible, not the one you made up to worship for yourself.
Where does the Bible say that?
> Jesus is not the brother of satan.
No one but liars are saying that. We have never taught it.
> its part of your own book.
Cite chapter and verse.
> You are actively lying
Expose me. Cite your sources.
> fuck off buddy.
Ah, a jew. Incapable of rational thought. When confronted turns to what they know best -- debauchery and filth.
