No it is not a shame to know Satan has control over a part of my life. I sin, therefore, he still gets the better of me sometimes. It is a shame that he does, but not to know, I would rather know he does than have the knowledge hidden from me.

People change the way they think altogether when they see God. They fear him because they see him, but he told them to fear him in the first place. Some people think to themselves I'm sure, that they know better than God and the things they would say when they see him. But when they wake up after death, and are ashamed of themselves. And they hive to live with that for eternity as well as many other things...

No one makes you do anything. It's called personal responsibility. Stop passing the buck.

No he doesn't "make" people do evil, he influences them to do evil. If he could force it he would, but he can't. so he tries his best to influence it, since thats all he can do. If we listen to his temptation, that is our fault.

I understand your point of view and your belief. Mine is that there is no HE. I do not believe in deities of any sort. Hope you can understand that's my point of view and belief

I just find it strange to not believe in God yet look at everything around you. Why is it all here? Because it was created.

Well I can't make you understand. It's the way I am. I've been this way for 20 years. I find it strange for someone to believe in God. But I don't spend too much time caring to be quite honest. Whatever gets you through the day

That's a nice little song. Not my cup of tea, but I can see why people would like him.
I prefer something more of:
Heresy by Nine Inch Nails

He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
Hes got the answers to ease my curiosity
He dreamed up a God and called it Christianity
Your God is dead and no one cares
If there is a hell I will see you there
He flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
He made a virus that would kill off all the swine
His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
Demands devotion atrocities done in his name
Your God is dead and no one cares
Drowning in his own hypocrisy
And if there is a hell I will see you there
Burning with your God in humility
Will you die for this?
