Dear *****,
*Tried to post this on your blog, but as it didn't allow, i'm sending the comments on your blog "http://knowislam.ucoz.com/
According to glimpses of Bhagavatam, the holy treatise about creation, there is whole explanation of types of satan (rakshasas, asuras, bhoota, preta and pisachas - all having different characteristics) vs. different types of devatas (devas, suras, yakshas, kinnera kimpurushas etc. -who are with sattva guna) and many more and ultimately, the evolution of humanity through devahuti (daughter of Swayambhu Manu)i and kardama muni (who performed penance of over 10000 years for following the wish of Lord Brahma about extending the human creation) etc...
When scriptures and puranas are drawing such clear lines between devas and danavas (satan), how can there be idols for satans? It is much advanced text telling story of evolution....for your reference and reading.
Further, with your limited 5 senses through which you can perceive the world outer to you, you can't know the lord. It is easier at very ground level to start devotion with someone imaginable than with someone whom you don't know. Being aware of sensuous limitations, you are asked to worship the various forms of lord in idols form and perform the rituals, that reach the lord (akasat patitam toyam yadha gachati saagaram, sarva deva namaskaraha sri kesavam prati gachati), as all the water from skies reach the ocean, similarly all the namaskaras to devas would reach kesava (the ultimate lord); Doing these regularly (similar to a muslim doing namaaz) your consciousness upgrades to perceive the higher levels of existance (physical , meta-physical, spiritual planes etc) in natural way...
Devatas are but part of creation of lord (krishna / vishnu) emanating from himself, for executing and sustaining the creations...just like President of India uses different Governments & Departments for sustaining operations of the Country (ideal situation).
Request you not to go by the names of lords / demons used here....they are as per the holy scriptures....
Regards,
