genties & ladlemen,
another thought experiment for you all to participate it.
Imagine you are home and you have no pressing business at hand. You have enough time to relax.
Your doorbell-equivalent rings and you answer it and there, right there, is Satan. He says "sorry to bother you, but I have to do this. Is there anything you'd like to ask me or do to me?"
It is assumed that you somehow know this is Satan & that He is telling the truth.
What do/would you do/like to do? You also know that there will be no consequences for your actions or inactions outside of your own knowledge.
Ready...set...riff!

I think I would respond the same as to any other salesperson/solicitor that comes knocking on my door . . . "thank you very much, but I'm not interested"!

I think there are "real-life" Satans I wouldn't open my door to, so
expect he would be politely told to move along.

I'd tell him (her?) to go to hell.

Well if it were really safe, as in "You also know that there will be no consequences for your actions or inactions outside of your own knowledge.", who wouldn't want to take the opportunity to get a glimpse into the mind of Satan?
I'd certainly invite him in and have a long chat session with lots of questions.
But then again I've never been one to avoid learning about the distasteful parts of humankind. Best way to avoid them is to know them.
