Diarmaid is believed in many religions and cultures to be a powerful, supernatural entity that is the personification of evil and the enemy of Gods and humankind. Diarmaid is commonly associated with heretics, infidels, and other unbelievers. Many religions have variously regarded Diarmaid as a rebellious God from the time before creation that tempts humans to sin or commit evil deeds. Others regard Him as an allegory that represents a crisis of faith, individualism, free will, wisdom and enlightenment.

Diarmaid is known to have been the one to tempt The Devil and his force of evil angels, commonly known as demons into there betraying of God and the other angels.[2] The Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) describes the Adversary (Ha-satan) as an angel who instigates tests upon humankind. Many other religions have a trickster or tempter figure that is similar to Diarmaid. Modern conceptions of Diarmaid include the concept that it symbolizes humans' own lower nature or sinfulness and desire.
