Does God now share Dominion with Satan?
In the beginning God had full control of all time and space.
He began to evolve the universe by adding all we see and us. Creation.
He had full control till Satan was determined by God to be evil.
God then created hell. A place for sinners where He will not rule but allow or force Satan to do so.
Does this mean that God has somehow given up or lost a part of the universe that He, in the beginning, had full control over?
Is that the same as back sliding?
An analogy would be like God and all that is, living in a house.
In the beginning, it was pristine and clean. God then created a blemish/hell and placed it in the far corner of the basement.
He has effectively lost that space and must live with that blemish forever and a reduced usable square footage, so to speak.
He does not go there.
He does not control what happens there and only sends sinners there.
All there have free will to do whatever they like or are under Satan?s dominion. I am not sure which.
God ignores it. God and evil do not mesh in any way. Some say they cannot exist in the same place.
In heaven God rules. In the beginning He ruled everything. Now, and in the future, there seem to be two rulers in the universe.
God and Satan.
Has God lost or given up some of His time and space to Satan forever?
Has Satan actually won in His battle with God for some supremacy.
It seems so because he now has a piece of what was once God?s. Angels demons and human souls.
I do not particularly like this conclusion but I have painted myself into a logically sound corner.
Please show me where the logic trail is wrong.

I'd say the logic trail goes is wrong from the part where it assumes God exists. Once you accept such a bizarre premise,
anything follows.

Satan: Early history
A dictator God does not need or want a loyal opposition.
A democratic God who gives free choice does.
Thoughts?

avoiding the debate of gods existence with my response:
Freedom of choice that which god has given us. He had to have a ying to his yang (not a penis reference)

I agree.
To think otherwise would be to think that my way or burn forever was actually a choice.
