The greatest trick Satan plays on us is to have us believe he isn't real.
Another one is to tell us that moral boundaries are a crutch and that nothing has substance, its all just good vibes all around.
If you notice OP does not mention Jesus Christ.
P: Lord, have mercy. All: Lord, have mercy.
P: Christ, have mercy. All: Christ, have mercy.
P: Lord, have mercy. All: Lord, have mercy.
P: Christ, hear us. All: Christ, graciously hear us.
P: God, the Father in heaven. All: Have mercy on us.
P: God, the Son, Redeemer of the world. All: Have mercy on us.
P: God, the Holy Spirit. All: Have mercy on us.
P: Holy Trinity, one God. All: Have mercy on us.
Holy Mary, pray for us,* * After each invocation: "Pray for us."

From all evil, deliver us, 0 Lord.* * After each invocation: "Deliver us, 0 Lord." From all sin, From your wrath, From sudden and unprovided death, From the snares of the devil, From anger, hatred, and all ill will, From all lewdness, From lightning and tempest, From the scourge of earthquakes, From plague, famine, and war, From everlasting death, By the mystery of your holy incarnation, By your coming, By your birth, By your baptism and holy fasting, By your cross and passion, By your death and burial, By your holy resurrection, By your wondrous ascension, By the coming of the Holy, Spirit, the Advocate, On the day of judgment,
P: We sinners, All: We beg you to hear us.* * After each invocation: "We beg you to hear us."
That you spare us, That you pardon us, That you bring us to true penance, That you govern and preserve your holy Church, That you preserve our Holy Father and all ranks in the Church in holy religion, That you humble the enemies of holy Church, That you give peace and true concord to all Christian rulers.

Standard left brain delusion; If I can't see it, it isn't real. Can't see magnetism, can't see gravity, know they're there even though I can't see them. Can't test for "God" under the current model of science(Or so they'll tell you.) and can't be bothered to even read and respond properly, because it's all about domination, it's all about being "Right" with the Left Brain. No room for anything beyond the five sense physical, no matter how pathetically terrible those five senses are at determining what is and is not "real".

If we accept that God is Omniscient, then there isn't a "battle" to be had
Except we have free will.
Satan is a fabrication, a scapegoat, literally
Well, at least you're trying to keep an open mind about the mysteries of the universe, hey? /s
Do you always present your personal beliefs as fact?

Do you always act like a smarmy cunt when you've made no point whatsoever?
It's really not conducive towards getting a proper dialogue going. Try again.
You don't seem to understand what "Omniscient" is. Might want to meditate on the term a little before you act as though free will is somehow exempt from being part of all things. Makes you look a tad foolish when you are demonstrably doing nothing but being a cunt, an IGNORant one at that.

I've had it really rough up until recently, so I'm still in the camp of uncertainty. I know on some level, deep down, that everything will be fine and even if it isn't, it will be as it is meant to be. Either we awaken and co-create a beautiful existence beyond compare. Or we don't. Either way, the Reaper Reaps, either way, what we sow will soon become bountiful.
This is my attempt at planting seeds I can take pride in.
