"The Devil
& the Christians"
Is it not so that if the devil punishes the wicked in
hell, Christians ought to worship the devil? Or are they not the flag-bearers
of justice and personal responsibility they appear to be?
Yes, I think this is the very fundamental problem with
Christianity: the absolute and persistent refusal to accept the dark as
something part of the Divine.
And this categorical and axiomatic rejection of the
Devil-principle as a holy principle is not a rejection I can theologically
respect or accept―not even in the slightest.
Is it not so, that if the devil comes to torment the rapists
of nuns and the stranglers of children, then he too ought to be a part of God’s sacred
design?
A peace-worshipping
religion is no religion at all.
