Satan's greatest trick is getting people to believe in other things and religions and not accepting the real truth, Jesus Christ is our savior and the Son of God.
Wow - that's a convincing argument there... I am going to take off my foil cap and subscribe to your newsletter!

Satans greates trick is : the sweet sweet poon. I would sell my soul for some right now. Hey devil I am calling you I will sell my soul to you if you produce lindsay lohan or a reasonably similar facsimile thereof naked and oiled here in my office. Or I will sell it to you If you let me play really good blues guitar.

The devil's goal is to get our focus away from walking with God by introducing cults, greed, etc.

Maybe Christinanity is just a really big and successful cult.

Becareful what you wish for. Sometimes poontang isn't worth it. Would you rather spend an eternity in heaven or 2 minutes of lust?

third option: 2 hours of tantric lust followed by not going to either heaven or hell as they don't exist...?

Hey, I resent that. That's blasphemous!

Perhaps you don't realize that many "other religions" predate Christianity, and the bible's authors "borrowed" from many of them.

You're confusing that with man's greatest trick in exploiting the credulous. Those who suspend reason and amplify belief are bound to cerebral serfdom.

heh.. cerebral serfdom...


puh-reach it brutha

Can I get an AAAAA MEN.
 
I have a friend who explained it to me like this:

God and the Devil are the same.

Heaven is like church, Hell is also like church. If you like going to church you'll be in heaven, if you don't like it, you'll be in hell. Only difference is that God is the preacher.

Satan's greatest trick:
Who are you carrying all those bricks for anyways? God? Is that it...God? Well I tell ya, let me give you a liitle inside information about God. God like to watch... He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man... INSTINCTS!! He give you this incredible gift and then what does he do, I swear for his own amusement, his own private, cosmic, GAGREEL! He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. LOOK, but don't touch... TOUCH, but don't taste... TASTE, don't swallow. HAHA! And while you're jumping from one foot to the next, what is he doing??? He's laughing his sick FCKING ASS OFF! HE'S A TIGHT ASS, HE'S A SADIST!!! HE'S AN ABSENTEE LANDLORD! WORSHIP THAT? ... NEVER. Better to reign in hell than serve in Heaven? Why not? I'm here on the ground with my nose in it since the whole thing began. I've nurtured every sensation man's been inspired to have. I cared about what he wanted and I never judged him. Why? Because I never rejected him, in spite of all his imperfections. I'm a fan of man. I'm a humanist. Maybe the last humanist.

If there is a God, then EVERYONE is the children of God, not just one man.
