BlueHue said, "SATAN however comes from the Egyptian-Word for Vice-Roy or KING(= SETEN.)so SATAN de POENIS-INFERNO, means KING of the Underworld."
Well actually Blue, I am going to have to adamantly disagree with you here. It is far more likely that the word Satan is derived from the Egyptian phrase SA.ATEN. "Sa" was the Egyptian word meaning "son of". It could also mean "spirit of" and because it was written hieroglyphically by the symbol of a duck, it could also mean "duck." Neither the Egyptians or the Hebrews had a written language that contained vowels, so when the original Hebrew texts were translated, the vowels that were chosen was pretty much a crap shoot. Throughout the texts, you will find that the vowels e, a, and i were regularly interchanged, as were the vowels o and u. In the process, the original meanings of many words were terribly, terribly botched. In some cases, we might simply say this was due to human error, however there is much to suggest that priests and scribes often had an agenda of their own, and some of those mistranslations may have well been quite intentional.
Atenism may sound innocent enough on the surface, but ultimately "the one god" as expressed by Atenism was an unknown concept until around 2000 BC when Ra, the god of the Heliopolitan sun god cult rose to power throughout Egypt and the entire Middle East. In Babylon and Sumer, Ra was called Marduk, so we can all count on the fact that he was known far and wide. The Heliopolitan sun god cult was not just made up of its priesthood; there was also an Egyptian army devoted to the sun god cult, and in the years preceding 2000 BC they regularly attacked the nomes of other Egyptian gods, as well as attacked the city/states of other gods (i.e. rulers) throughout the Middle East. Thoroughly human rulers were referred to as "gods" in those days, and were deified as such, but originally the word "god" did not seem to mean "God with a capital G;" it was basically a term signifying a political leader, usually a king, who was the ruler of a specific territory. One might compare it to the way "Lord" is still given as a title in England to this day. As Ra rose to power, his priesthood began calling Ra by the name "Aten" and they also declared him to be the "one god" and demanded that all other gods be subservient to him. Typically the priesthood would send Ra's army to the nome or city/state of another god whereupon they gave that god and his priesthood the option of either agreeing to their demands or getting offed by Ra's army. When the god of anther territory accepted Ra's terms, his name was simply "absorbed" into the "one god" religion of Atenism, and his name was added to the list of names said to represent Aten-Ra. To date, scholars have surmised that Ra had absorbed at least 75 known names in Egypt, and as Marduk of Babylon, he absorbed the names of another 50 known gods. After that I think most of us have just given up trying to count them. Those gods' past accomplishments as kings and rulers were also "absorbed" into the sun-god cult and ultimately that god's past deeds and reputation became part of "the Great Aten" or the "one god" of Egyptian sun god fame. Those who did not agree to Ra's demands were usually unceremoniously killed, and once dead, those gods were simply absorbed into the cult of Atenism anyway.
Atenism was not a very popular concept, and for good reason. The reason Atenism was so unpopular is because it really had nothing to do with "God" as we might interpret that word today. Atenism was frowned upon because beneath all the glowing words of the infamous Akhenaton, as well as various other members of the Heliopolitan priesthood preaching the same concepts, was a political move that amounted to tyranny and despotism of the worst kind. Ra's version of Atenism was seen by many as an attempt to circumvent the power of the omnipotent God, and was seen as a religious/political move that was attempting to replace the ideal of "One God" i.e. an acknowledged spiritual presence that was way beyond "the gods" of human political office, and an attempt to replace that far greater spiritual truth with utter tyranny and make a religion out of it.
To many, Atenism was seen as the ultimate attempt to usurp the power of the Greater Universal God, and it was viewed as a blatant attempt by Ra and his priesthood to set Ra's throne of the solar deity cult above that of the Universal God. Hence, anyone who worshipped Ra as the power behind Atenism was known as a "Sa.Aten" i.e. a "son of Aten" and eventually the words "Sa.Aten" became translated in the much later Biblical texts as "Satan".
