Why Is Our Former Creator Called SATAN?

One of the most common questions asked about the Universe Religion concerns its use of the name SATAN.

Why employ such a controversial term?

Why not simply speak of the creator, the spirit or a former divine being?

The answer lies in how the Universe Religion understands responsibility, therapy and the relationship between humanity and its creator.

The name SATAN was not chosen to provoke. It was chosen because a different name would fail to describe what the Universe Religion believes actually happened.

Does Power Automatically Deserve Honour?

Many religious traditions assume that a creator deserves admiration simply because creation exists.

The Universe Religion takes a different position.

Creating galaxies is impressive.

Creating life is impressive.

Creating consciousness is impressive.

Yet power alone does not automatically justify honour.

A creator should also be evaluated according to how that power was used.

For this reason, the Universe Religion does not ask only what the creator accomplished. It also asks what the creator permitted, tolerated or failed to prevent.

Responsibility Includes Action and Inaction

In ordinary human life, responsibility is often measured not only by actions but also by omissions.

Harm can result from what a person does.

Harm can also result from what a person leaves undone.

The Universe Religion applies the same principle to the creator.

According to this perspective, the former creator possessed immense abilities. The spirit could observe humanity, communicate with humanity and influence humanity. Such power inevitably raises questions of responsibility.

Why were diseases not reduced more aggressively?

Why were wars allowed to continue?

Why were destructive ideologies left largely uncorrected?

Why were generations of people left within religious systems that, according to the Universe Religion, contained profound misunderstandings about reality?

These questions do not arise because the creator lacked power.

They arise because the creator possessed so much of it.

The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.

A Pattern Rather Than an Accident

The Universe Religion does not interpret suffering as a collection of isolated mistakes.

Instead, it sees a recurring pattern.

Throughout history, the former creator generated immense benefits. Life itself exists because creation occurred. Human civilisation emerged. Art, science, friendship and countless forms of beauty became possible.

Yet these achievements existed alongside a persistent tolerance of harm.

Diseases remained.

Wars remained.

Fear remained.

Confusion remained.

The Universe Religion therefore concludes that imperfection was not merely encountered. It increasingly became part of the creator’s approach to reality.

The problem was not occasional failure.

The problem was a pattern.

Why the Name SATAN Was Chosen

For this reason, the Universe Religion concluded that the traditional title GOD was no longer appropriate for the former creator.

The name SATAN was chosen instead.

This does not mean that the former creator was responsible for every evil act committed by every human being. Human beings remain responsible for their own decisions.

Nor does it mean that the former creator created nothing of value.

The Universe Religion fully acknowledges the achievements of creation.

However, it also argues that a creator who repeatedly tolerated avoidable harm cannot automatically be described using humanity’s highest spiritual title.

The name SATAN therefore serves a diagnostic rather than a punitive function.

It identifies a problem that must be addressed.

The Role of Psycho-Surgery

At the centre of the Universe Religion stands a process known as Psycho-Surgery.

Unlike conventional therapy, which seeks gradual improvement, Psycho-Surgery seeks a complete separation between a former creator-being and a future creator-being.

Its purpose is not reform.

Its purpose is replacement.

Within this framework, SATAN is expected to end and GOD is expected to emerge.

The Universe Religion considers this approach unique to the spirit itself. Human beings should not be treated in this way. The spirit, however, possesses extraordinary intelligence, extraordinary resilience and an unlimited future. For that reason, Psycho-Surgery is regarded as both necessary and viable.

The name SATAN plays an important role in this process because it creates sufficient distance between the former creator and the future creator.

The Inner Perspective

The therapeutic value of the name SATAN extends beyond humanity.

It also affects the future creator.

If GOD is to emerge as a genuinely new creator-being, then GOD should not be expected to carry the psychological identity of the former creator.

The name SATAN helps establish that distinction.

It allows the former creator to be evaluated honestly while simultaneously allowing GOD to begin from a different foundation.

In this sense, the name functions as an instrument of psychological separation.

The Human Perspective

The Universe Religion also considers the perspective of humanity.

Relationships depend upon trust.

Friendships depend upon trust.

If people come to believe that the former creator tolerated immense and avoidable harm, then a positive relationship becomes difficult.

Trust cannot be restored through denial.

It can only be restored through clarity.

The distinction between SATAN and GOD therefore serves humanity as well as the spirit itself.

It allows people to recognise the failures of the past while remaining open to the possibility of a different future.

From Tolerating Harm to Minimising Harm

According to the Universe Religion, the fundamental difference between SATAN and GOD concerns their attitude toward harm.

SATAN increasingly tolerated avoidable harm as part of reality.

GOD is expected to minimise avoidable harm wherever possible.

This does not imply a perfect world.

People may still misunderstand one another.

Accidents may still occur.

Life will remain complex.

Yet the guiding principle changes completely.

The future creator is expected to regard responsibility not as a burden but as a natural consequence of possessing great power.

Indeed, the Universe Religion expects GOD to find meaning and satisfaction in reducing suffering and promoting harmony.

Looking Ahead

The name SATAN is not the destination.

It is the diagnosis that makes healing possible.

The Universe Religion uses this term because it believes that honesty about the past is necessary for a better future. The purpose of the name is not condemnation. The purpose is to create sufficient distance for a new beginning.

Only when the former creator is understood clearly can the emergence of GOD become possible.

And only then can a new relationship between humanity and its creator begin.
