The devil is found in the foul stench that arises within the darkest corner of our own heart. He lives when we choose to give him life. The force that siezes our soul in fear, turns our thoughts against reason and locks away every whispered cry of our hearts.

This may be a demon, but who really knows?

I consider the devil as a being which is created through war, where people try to marry as many powerful people to win the battle for themselves and not their opponents. The devil is created by those at extremes, and ignored through selfish ignorance by those balanced in the system. It's the anger, hate, selfishnes ...[text shortened]... not love your enemies, then it's probably better not to fight them... as the abuse would grow.

The devil is in the detail.

(so I hear)

I have a theory which is everyone has a devil. For some it is a political figure like "W", for some it is a corporation such as Wal Mart, for others it is religion, for others a particular country like the US, for others it is an actual being, etc. What is your devil?

I don't believe there is a devil - just people who want to either (a) villanize others or (b) don't want to take responsibility for their own actions.

If there is a devil than it isn't people we should be most concern
about. So I don't think that blaming other people would cut it, and
people wanting to avoid their own actions by blaming him
instead ...yea... that one I could buy into, but I still don't think that
having a real devil lets anyone off the hook for thier own actions.
I do however believe there is a real devil.

Yeah, but you also believe that the world is 6,000 years old.

You believe it to be billions of years old, correct? I also say that what
I believe is a matter of faith, you are more of the opinion what you
believe is a fact too, am I right?
