Ross Perot was literally being satanic.
In the most explicit biblical (and quranic) story of satan, he and god debate Job's loyalty to god. Satan tortures job, kills his wife and children, poisons his crops, his body... The point is to see if Job remains steadfast, always praising god no matter the pain. At the end of the story, god rewards job with a new family, farm and such.
In other stories, Satan tempts. The idea is the same, a sneaky test of piety. Rewards to the steadfast. Punishment for everyone else.
^First time I've used the term "literally" literally in a long time... literally.
