If the devil and the opposite of that existed, even conceptually as ideas, gender wouldn’t be applicable to them in the same way that gender isn’t applicable to fire.
Likely, what defines a god or the devil, is the social conventions and values you hold. Or, if you want to go the route of a creator, is your own parents, who are neither omnipotent nor omianything because they’re just like you, a meaningless glimpse of an ever-repeating pattern, slowly evolving, with no destiny or fate other than death.
Want to praise something? Praise being alive at all. Praise other people who are alive, along with you. Demonize the source of the powers that be that make your life worse: fascism. Those are the real powers that corrupt and damn people.
Go eat and be merry. Stop leaning on tales and hopes of an imagined after-life and wasting the actual-life you have. It doesn’t exist.
Re-evaluate what it means, here, and now, to be good, right, and wrong. Start with the extremes, challenge those ideas, try to make it make sense. Questioning is not taboo. Being wrong is not taboo.
