Deep Thoughts With The Deep: Satan Evil Logical Paradox

This is a 3-panel meme using the character The Deep from the satirical superhero series *The Boys*, following the popular "Deep Thoughts with The Deep" meme format. The first panel shows The Deep facing forward neutrally with overlaid text reading "If Satan is evil". The second panel shows him turning his head to the side in confused thought, with text that reads "Then why tf is he the one punishing people doing evil?". The final panel is desaturated to black and white, showing The Deep looking down pensively, with the text "DEEP THOUGHTS WITH THE DEEP" placed on the left. The comedic core of the meme is a widely shared counterintuitive shower thought that points out a logical inconsistency in common popular Christian theology: if Satan is framed as the ultimate embodiment of evil, it is contradictory that he is also said to be responsible for torturing people who committed evil acts during their life, which would functionally be an act of justice under the given moral framework.
