So I've begun the initial stages of a story/book I plan to write with the following premise:
What if God is real?
What if Satan was his equal, not his creation?
What if God is the bad guy?
I plan on running a very hard theme of nihilism throughout the book and the idea of humanity banding together against the divine to say "Enough is enough, you do not have the right to lord over us."
A secondary purpose of the story would be to put ideas of doubt in God's truthfulness into the mind of a reader.
Do you think fiction can be used to convey ideas properly enough to hope for a change in thought in the reader?
