SATAN n. One of gezegde

 SATAN, n. One of the Creator's lamentable mistakes, repented in sashcloth and axes. Being instated as an archangel, Satan made himself multifariously objectionable and was finally expelled from Heaven. Halfway in his descent he paused, bent his head in thought a moment and at last went back. "There is one favor that I should like to ask," said he.
"Name it."
"Man, I understand, is about to be created. He will need laws."

"Pardon; what I have to ask is that he be permitted to make them himself." It was so ordered.

  Ambrose Bierce

 [While referring to Satan as] a tremendous asset, ... But there was frustration. ... There were games I thought certain players could've made a difference and didn't make a difference.

 [The devil made him do it: There's little question San Francisco radio talk-show host Larry Krueger deserved to be fired for calling some Giants] brain-dead Caribbean hitters hacking away at slop. ... a messenger of Satan, and I believe there is no forgiveness for Satan.

 I've gotten letters, but mostly from Bible-belt types who say, you must be Satan! They come right out and call me Satan and hope that I'm damned to hell.

 Satan cannot win. Why not? Because he has denied God's sovereignty and disobeyed God's law. But Moses was told explicitly, God's blessings come only from obedience. Satan will not win because he has abandoned God's tool of dominion, biblical law.

 We continue to believe that the ordinance is inconsistent with state laws governing sex offenders and that laws which make it extremely difficult for individuals to find housing do not make the public safer.

 God's truth judges created things out of love, and Satan's truth judges them out of envy and hatred.
  Dietrich Bonhoeffer

 The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.
  Alexis de Tocqueville

 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

 It sets a precedent, that Wal-Mart will not be permitted to violate the laws of California the way they did here, and the jury found that they had intentionally, with malice and oppression and fraud, violated the laws of the state of California.

 Satan is the great deceiver; we know that. But this means that self-proclaimed Satanists, occultists, Wiccans, etc. are his weakest soldiers! They are and always will be part of the subculture. Most people look at them, recognize them, and look away. Satan's most effective warriors are in the mainstream: Misguided, apathetic Joe and Jane Schmos who work in the office next to yours. They live "normal" lives. But their minds are deceived and their lives are permeated by subtle, socially acceptable, ungodly attitudes. Such "innocent Satanists" have the greatest influence in our world. Is it possible that some of Satan's strongest influence comes even through members of Christ's church?

 I could well believe that it is God's intention, since we have refused milder remedies, to compel us
into unity, by persecution even and hardship. Satan is without a doubt nothing else than a hammer in the
hand of a benevolent and severe God. For all, either willingly or unwillingly, do the will of God:
Judas and Satan as tools or instruments, John and Peter as sons.

  C.S. Lewis

 And, sir, when we think of eternity, and of the future consequences of all human conduct, what is there in this life that should make any man contradict the dictates of his conscience, the principles of justice, the laws of religion, and of God?

 The hacker Pex Tufvesson created the music program Noisetracker.

 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

 And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? / And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
