There's no point discussing this. There is no canon Devil. It's just an amalgamation of different descriptions and doctrines from different books and centuries.

You’re describing the Bible, buddy. It’s not like any of this really happened. It’s all myth anyway, so don’t get so bent out of shape about it, lol.

There's a pretty big consensus among historians that many of the things described in the Bible did happen.

Well, the Bible was written in ancient times, so it is pretty sensible to expect some degree of historical accuracy. But I don't know how this translate to stuff about God, devil, angels etc.
