The concept of God and Satan comes from the Sumerian brothers Enki and Enlil.
As the Sumerians told it, Enlil despised his own original creation, the human race, who were created as slaves to mine gold in Africa. Zacharia Sitchen has proposed that this is why the first homo-sapien skeletons were found in African goldmines, and is why gold is revered across all cultures that had no contact with each other.
Enki, Enlil's brother, feeling sorry for man, sought to inform man of his true purpose (a slave race). This is where the allegorical story of the garden of eden (Sumerian = E.DIN) came from. Enki was depicted as a serpent by the Babylonians (serpent = knowledge in many cultures), and when he tried to inform man (Sumerian = A.DAMU) of his predicament, Enlil got pissed off and "original sin" was born. There was obviously something so secret, that Enlil was willing to threaten eternal punishment to mankind should they ever find out.
Enlil was so enraged, that he attempted to destroy all mankind with a catastrophic act (the Great Flood). In the Sumerian story, it was Enki who then warned Ziusudra (Biblical Noah) of Enlil's plans, and saved mankind from his brother's malevolance.
Enlil's vindictiveness, commanding multiple of acts of murder, incest, genocide, etc., of anyone who didn't follow him without question, can be later found throughout the Old Testament - which amounts to a smear campaign of God calling Satan "evil", but perpetrating the most evil acts himself.
When religion was better understood to be utilized as a political tool, the monotheistic Western religions were born, and myths and allegories were amalgamated into one all-knowing "God".
So in fact, the "God" (Enlil) of the bible is really mankind's antithesis, while "Satan" (Enki) was mankind's compassionate caretaker. One only needs to look at the Old Testament for the brutality and blind, unquestioning obedience that "God" commanded of his people, more akin to a slavemaster exerting total and complete control over his little pets.

I am not a satanist, nor into religion - I am more inclined to believe that these stories are simply astrological allegory mixed in with half-truths and real events, but I do find it odd that so much of Western religion seems to have been duped into believing that God isn't anything other than a wolf in sheep's clothing.
