Satanism and the church

What do you guys think about this satanic statement

I personally think without some sort of "evil person" to keep people in check the church would not be as powerful as it is today/or it would have died out a long time ago.

Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!

First and foremost, Satan nor God exist.

But on the topic of evil, I believe that humans just have an instinctive lust for power and violence.
Some express their inner devils more than others.

I don't believe in a god either but whether you like it or not the church is a big presence in our lives even if it is based of a fictional character.

Wtf? Do you even know what Satanism is lol? And its relation to the fictional character Satan, and how he compares in evil/malevolence to god?
