Satan Uber Alles

I’m going to call this piece “Satan Uber Alles”. I have to ask myself if I were Satan what would be my fondest fantasy. First of all I’d want to negate virtue and uphold evil. If genocide is a bad thing I’d want to rub God’s face in the fact that it’s the “Evil” Democrats who fought the was in Bosnia and Kosevo while the “Good” Republicans opposed that war. I’d love it every time Larry Elder said “Our job as a country is not to fight wars for human rights”. I’d look at the Genocide going on in Sudan and get a big smile on my face and I’d get an even bigger smile at the prospect that the Christian US is doing absolutely nothing about it, because it’s too tied up in Iraq. When Dennis Prager talks about “fighting evil” it’s clear he’s not referring to the Moslems committing genocide against the Black Christians in western Sudan and Chad. In this vein of turning virtues into vices and vices into virtues- - I’d love it when the harder George Bush tries to solve the immigration problem from Mexico, the worse he does in the polls. Every time he opens his mouth he alienates another segment of the population. So that now his worst enemies are those within his own party. In the same vein of virtues into vices I’d love the Jesus Christ show. He’d be about my favorite person on the radio and I’d move heaven and earth to insure that he stays on the air. Jesus has said that it doesn’t matter if some of the firemen who risked their lives on 9 – 11 rescuing people from tall buildings- weren’t saved and ended up sacrificing their lives. The Enemy (God) says that sacrifice of your life is useless unless you’ve said those magic words accepting Jesus into your heart. After all some of those brave but unsaved firemen might deserve it because you never know but one of them might be a child molester. People who bring up the issue of firemen who died in an unsaved contition are only “trying to manipulate you” anyhow.

I’d be very glad for people like Rich Cathers. One time at a prayer session he said “Don’t get into anything too heavy- - and be sure you don’t gossip about someone else during the session. In short keep the whole thing completely surface and meaningless. The point is to put on a good show and entertain Me and feed My ego as some sort of a prayer MC, and not to get any work of God accomplished. As Satan I would find the CS Lewis book “The screwtape letters” highly amusing. I just love it when someone thinks that Me and My demons all speak with perfectly correct Christian theology. And of course our side never lies. We always tell the Truth exactly as C S Lewis says it. Someone could read that book and then face Me and My demons personally and be utterly shocked to realize sadly that We are nothing like the CS Lewis portrayal in the book. But I do like the plug for War that CS Lewis has in the book, even if he has to tell a lie to make his point. He says when you die in war it’s quick and instantaneous and painless and the minute you are dead you walk around in an all new body feeling refreshed like a Zest commercial after a shower. I love the fact that Christians are apathetic to other people’s pain. They make our job so much easier for us than it would otherwise be. Of course Jesus on the radio is down on healings. Meracles are the thing Our Side dreads the most and that we pray never happen, unless We cause them. One thing we want to insure is that people never look to God for anything Good. Indeed we don’t even want people associating the words God and Good. (selah)

We know that the battle for men’s souls is kind of like Israel fighting her enemies. All they need is won loss and the war is over. Isrial has to win every war they fight and if they lose one, they’re wiped out as a nation. So it is with salvation. It doesn’t matter how morally good people are. I love the fact that God doesn’t care at all about volitional acts of goodness because everything is “drowned in the blood of Christ”. The only thing that matters to God is if you’ve said those magic words letting Jesus into your heart- and if at any time you ever have doubt- - all of your protestations of Faith in the past will count for nothing and God will hold that one moment of doubt against you. And if you should protest this God will say to you in the afterlife “You wonder why I negate all of your faith? Because the ONE time you denied Me was the time I KNEW you were telling the truth. It’s a confession I was Waiting for you to make. In other words God is doing our work for us by working on our team sending people to Hell, to our side, because he apparently has no use for them. Indeed I thank Hell every day that the book “Destined for Salvation” isn’t true. Because if it were- our Kingdom of Darkness would be wiped out in a heart beat. As it is with God’s “mercy” and “delay of judgement” is that it just gives more people time to earn their way to Hell. And their own Messiah admitted that a lot more people come to Hell than ever make it to Heaven. (Selah)

We know patience and perseverance are traits of the Enemy and we need to wipe them out. We also need to provoke family arguments and strife, and if possible we need to prevent certain issues from every being talked about at all so that they can grow and fester under the surface till they reach a crisis point and then it’s too late. We know that Marcus Arelius has had concerns about the spiritual state of his parents and one of his two brothers. But he knows the more he even hints about it the bigger of a wall appears. We know that Marcus Arelius can’t talk to his family about anything really important. We know life for him is like one of these badly written improbable soap operas where there are a lot of secrets of all sorts that are kept well hidden. The Enemy (God) states that “confession is good for the soul” but we seek to make Honesty and Sincerety virtues that are punished every time they are practiced. Our side wants Christians to feel absolutely worthless and impotent no matter what they do. At the same time we want to destroy Christian values in America by increasing pornography and promoting abortion and gay marriage, and also promoting two-faced people such as Dennis Prager. Dennis isn’t “Holier than thou”. I tell you what. Dennis is “phonier than thou”.

In the spirit of soap operas being badly written and relying on the "improbably evil" aspects of things we like to present the following tributes to Satan:

Well we all heard George Bush’s immigration speech tonight. He’s made his position on the matter clear. I think we should all get behind the president on this one in a spirit of compromise. Many will say “We don’t need any new laws on illegals; we can enforce the laws we have”. Nothing in the new bill will stop people from enforcing the laws on the books we have now. I think the people who “want to send them all back” are just pie in the sky dreamers. I really think we have to be realistic. I am also aware that it’s the House that’s posing the road block, not wanting to get on board. Once we have a democratic house next year we should find it a lot easier to pass needed legislation.

Let’s talk about the soap operas on NBC. As you know, Hope Brady has been screwed over at least three times. She was screwed over by Bo when he gave daughter Chelsea the right to drive on that permit, she was screwed over when Bo lied to her about both that and the fact that Chelsea was being shielded from culpability for killing Zach by Billy. She was screwed over again when she saw Bo and Billy in bed in that motel room. And she was screwed over when Bo, at least as she saw it, agreed so readily to her initial feeler about a divorce. How her loving husband Bo, who would “do anything to keep their marriage together” is about to give her the most royal screwing of all by moving up the date of Chelsea’s trial and not telling Hope about it. Frankie, her attorney, may be doing the legal thing by not telling her himself but he sure isn’t doing the moral thing. In an endeavor to keep from legal suits himself- - I’d sue Frankie anyway just to demonstrate that conflict of interests isn’t Kosher. I don’t know if you can be disbarred for that but it’s certainly unethical behavior. Of course being with Alex North is just like the Born Again experience. You are with someone looking forward to the day of your death and you don’t get to know what he (God or Alex) is really like until the day of your death and by then it’s too late. He drugs some to keep them “happy” and “unaware” and Marlena says she is happy but has no basis of comparison to even know what happiness for her is. Alex is so bold in his lying he lies right in front of John, Hope, and Marlena saying John is “stalking” him when he himself caused John to show up on that Island getaway honeymoon. On Passions Luis just missed seeing Beth and Martin, of course, when Fancy was talking to them. If it were me I’d be looking over my shoulder all the time and pursuing every lead and telling everybody I knew I was looking for a Brunette with an American accent and a small baby boy. These people on soap operas take “stupid pills”, as judge Judy might say. Whitney was not killed by “God” after all, which is good. Ethan is joining Teresa on the plane after all after Gwen agrees to it.
