"How on earth did you determine that God was the good one and Satan was the evil one?"

"What objective criteria did you use other than 'God?' And if you pointed to God how is that not a cheating circular argument?"

Question posed by Matt Dilahunty at the end of an old Atheist Experience call in.

I have often wondered who and how that was determined. Especially since it is often hard to tell "the work of God" (like destroying a city) from the work of Satan (like destroying a city). Or the work of either's followers.

Seems to me it is better to determine real causes for calamities and quit blaming non-existent super-natural beings.
