This was recomended for me on youtube by a channel i subscribe to and found it very disturbing indeed. You can see why it was banned but i don't think it should have been banned at all. I think everyone including children should see this, i don't think its suitable for very young children but older children could deal with it and make them think about the meaning behind the storey. But it is a bit on the creepy side.

Ah that thing is wonderful.. it's part of a movie. 'The Adventures of Mark Twain'. It's not banned at all.
I love it.
'I am an angel'
'What's your name?'
'Saaataan'
*chuckle* It's monumentally bizarre. Love it. LOVE it.
The Mysterious Stranger was adapted to a short scene in the 1985 claymation film The Adventures of Mark Twain, in which the children visit a planetoid and meet an angel named Satan. He claims to be incapable of performing an evil act as he does not understand the concept of wrongdoing. Satan builds a sandcastle and has the children make clay figures which he then brings to life. Two of the clay men bicker over ownership of a cow, and Satan kills them by mashing them with his palm. He then creates a storm and an earthquake to kill the remaining people and destroy the castle, to the horror of the watching children. Thereafter, the kids leave the planetoid as Satan lectures, "Life itself is only a vision, a dream. Nothing exists save empty space and you, and you are but a thought," ultimately disappearing with the planetoid, an illusion he created himself.

Wiki has no reason to bullshit about Mark Twain, so:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mysterious_Stranger
and the texts of the original work are at the bottom..
It's just a story by Mark Twain! It's about a couple of kids who meet an angel called Satan on a floating rock. *shrug*
It's one of those things that's open to as much interpretation as you like, just like any story. It's just a smaller section from a larger book.
