If I were the devil ~ Paul Harvey

"If I were the Prince of Darkness, I would want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I would have one-third of the real estate and four-fifths of the population , but I wouldn't be happy until I had the ripest apple on the tree. Thee.

"So I'd set about to take over the United States.

"I'd subvert the churches first; I'd begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: "Do as you please."

"To the youth I would whisper, "The Bible is a myth."

"I would convince them that man made God instead of the other way around.

"I would confide that what's bad is good and what's good is "square."

"In the ears of the young married I would whisper that work is debasing, that cocktail parties are good for you.

"And to the old I would teach to pray after me: "Our Father, who art in Washington..."

"And then I'd get organized...."

1964 and 1996

Many of those things are just goofy and that turns people off. Cheap charades.

"I would confide that what's bad is good and what's good is "square."

Square? Please. Seems that the application of religion itself is what is turning people off. Either take the high road or stay at home.

If the stuff is real it will be recognized.

I just finished working on the book "Genesis 1-11" yesterday so it is off the printers now.
