92nd Street Y (92Y) says…

Where Abrahamic religions have regarded Satan as a rebellious fallen angel or demon who tempts humans to sin, others see Satan as an allegory representing a crisis of faith, individualism, free will, wisdom and enlightenment. Moreover, the Talmud mentions Satan as an agent of God. Discuss this complex and provocative figure.
