I do believe that there are intelligences which are not strictly or as we would understand carnate humans which seek to influance human affairs - and I believe that some of these forces are negative.
To me "Satan" or "Iblis" or whatever else is a name that one could give such forces.
I think it is unfortunate that sometimes the debate around religious idea's struggles to get past a view of one group seeing the world as full of sin and filth, and another seeing anyone that believe in God or spiritualism as a superstitious moron.
