The Devil's greatest trick

[J0hnny]

Don't flame me, but I once heard that:

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.

There should be a rule where if you haven't reached 1000 posts you are not allowed to say the word religion in your thread.

The devils greatest trick on you was making you believe your penis has a use other than for urinating.

Another saying:
Satan's biggest trick is getting people to believe he doesn't exist.

Usually zealots are the one flinging that one about though.

Man's greatest trick is getting people to go to church their whole lives, give to the church their whole lives, pray to a false God their whole lives, only to die and rot in the ground like very other living thing.

One time I heard that Jesus's greatest trick was to make a quarter vanish from his palm and then pull it from behind your ear.

As quoted by John Glover, otherwise known as Lionel Luthor and the best damn portrayal of the Devil ever to hit the small screen. (In the short-lived show Brimstone)

EDIT: And Keyser Soze.

From a christian theology point of view, this would really be satan's one and only goal... not really a 'trick' per se.

If you want a really interesting interpretation of 'devilling' read C.S. Lewis' Screwtape Letters. I'm not religious and found it fascinating, but I believe Lewis himself was quite Christian.

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.
