As an agnostic person with a moderate understanding of a variety of religions, I have thought that the Devil being pure-evil was a little odd. From the outside the purpose of the devil seemed to be more like a prison warden, and it didn't make sense that he was pure evil; after all, his main job seems to be to punish people who did wrong in their life.
Years ago I though about using this as a premise of a story, where "The Devil" was a job description (essentially prison warden), Lucifer was the first devil who revolted against god because he thought it was cruel to surround people with temptation and then punish them for accepting it, and Beelzebub was the second Devil who followed the will of god without question; and Lucifer would be trying to tempt human kind to end the rule of god, while Beelzebub would be a sadistic tormentor of people who followed the wrong path.
