The Devil (whoo ha ha!)

So God is dead, killed by the rationalists and scientists but did anyone remember to kill the Devil while they were at it?

Do you believe in the soul? If you do, can you be sure, it's still in your possession?
Would you recognise the Devil if you met him?

The Devil wants you to feel afraid and alone. His fear is the root of selfishness, conflict and evil. When you see yourself as separate from the Universe and from others then you are ready to take on the Devil's message of the survival of the fittest, strength as the highest virtue and conflict, competition and deception as the highest tools.

The Devil though cannot force you to do his bidding. He has to have your agreement, a contract if you will, and the choice to accept is always ultimately yours. You can choose fear and domination or you can choose love and cooperation.

"Please allow me to introduce myself,
I'm a man of wealth and taste,
I've
been around for long long years,
stolen many a man's soul and fate"

Rolling Stones, 'Sympathy for the Devil'

"For evil to triumph it is only necessary for good men to do nothing"

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance"
