The thing about being deceived by Satan is,
you don't know your deceived!
How does a fundamentalist Christian know that aren't deceived and should be Jews or Muslims, or Hindu's or whatever?
I've been thinking about blogging on this point.
It seems that Christian demonology undermines Christianity because even if they say the evidence looks good to them they can't disprove that Satan is just deceiving them.
Just as no one could really prove that Satan is not deceiving them when apologists make the claim that they are, Christians cannot disprove that they are deceived.
The witness in their spirit just might be the devil.
So since by their religious claims there is an equal chance that their religious claims are crap their religious claims are crap!
And that is seriously unfortunate. If only you people would stop treating these lousy (woman hating, bloodthirsty, slave driving, homophobic, etc) fables as some sort of divine truth or guidance we'd be all set.
No creator in the heavens above (I am the lightning)
Rest your weary mind
No demons in the furnace below (I am the frenzy)
I have realized I AM GOD
