A thought experiment for you to consider…

"An apology for the Devil: It must be remembered that we have only heard one side of the case. God has written all the books." - Samuel Butler

"How can you know the coin without seeing both sides?" – DevilWithAHalo

Think about what you know for a moment or two about Religion’s containing the Devil Figure head.

Now think about what you know about historical figures in history books.

Now think about how those historical figures are being depicted.

Consider that general or public history is written by the victors of these confrontations. Would not the victors desire to be in the better light over their adversaries?

Now think again about what you really know about the Devil Figure head. Do you know anything at all?

Now the second side of this thought experiment…

Two small children come up to you bruised and bleeding obviously through some sort of altercation between the two.

You take one child to the side and discuss the situation with him. You make your determination of what happened on that child’s word and scold the other child for starting the altercation.

Was that the right thing to do?

Have you done that before? Are you sure?

Perhaps you’ve talked to God… when was the last time you’ve talked with the Devil?

And there you have it, rather simple really, or is it?

I’m curious… are you being truthful with yourself as you answer these?
