‘If I were the devil’: the 1965 warning from Paul Harvey that’s chilling........
If I were the prince of darkness, I would want to engulf the whole world in darkness.
I'd have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — thee.
So, I would set about however necessary to take over the United States. I'd subvert the churches first, and I would begin with a campaign of whispers.
With the wisdom of a serpent,
I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: "Do as you please."
To the young, I would whisper that the Bible is a myth.
I would convince the children that man created God instead of the other way around. I'd confide that what's bad is good and what's good is square.
And the old, I would teach to pray after me, "Our Father, which are in Washington ..."
Then, I'd get organized, I'd educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting.
I threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa.
I'd peddle narcotics to whom I could. I'd sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I'd tranquilize the rest with pills.
If I were the devil, I'd soon have families at war with themselves, churches at war with themselves and nations at war with themselves until each, in its turn, was consumed.
And with promises of higher ratings, I'd have mesmerizing media fanning the flames.
If I were the devil, I would encourage schools to refine young intellect but neglect to discipline emotions.
I'd tell teachers to let those students run wild.
And before you knew it, you'd have drug-sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.
With a decade, I'd have prisons overflowing and judges promoting pornography.
Soon, I would evict God from the courthouse and the schoolhouse and them from the houses of Congress.
In his own churches, I would substitute psychology for religion and deify science. I'd lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls and church money.
If I were the devil, I'd take from those who have and give to those who wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious.
What'll you bet I couldn't get whole states to promote gambling as the way to get rich?
If I were the devil I'd make the symbol of Easter and egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle.
I would caution against extremes, in hard work, and patriotism, in moral conduct.
I'd convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun and that what you see on television is the way to be.
And thus, I could undress you in public and lure you into bed with diseases for which there are no cures. In other words, if I were the devil, I'd just keep right on doing what he's doing.

#GOD, gave us all #FreeWill.
Some, can, do, choose #EVIL.
While #Jesus said TURN THE OTHER CHEEK he did NOT say ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE CONTINUALLY ABUSED.
He also said, there are TIMES, "those who have a garment should sell it and obtain a Sword" not to be confused with, nor contradictory to, #CONTEXTmatters, "turn Swords into Plowshares!" EACH has its legit TIME AND PLACE. The ISSUE for US, knowing the difference WHEN OR WHICH APPLIES.
But, again, SOME CHOOSE EVIL, and EVIL at times will not be reasoned with, appeasing makes matters WORSE, that EVIL must be CONFRONTED!
"Only thing necessary Evil prevail, good peoples do nothing!" BURKE - not direct from the #Bible but #BIBLICAL all throughout the #CONTEXT.

As I said on YAH, I complain about SUSAN COLLINS (and, yes, some others, glad CORNYN is now GONE, go @KenPaxtonTX) but if I were in ME right now I would be ENTHUSIASTICALLY supporting her re-election (better at 80% (as I said, or as you/Ed said at even) 60% than any Democrat who I agree with 0%)...

Hate to DEAL IN #REALITY, with so many that LIKE #DELUSION and never had basic #CIVICS, #ECONOMICS, and/or #HISTORY classes.... BUT....
#REALITY - #Inflation NEVER GOES AWAY ENTIRELY!!!
#TRUTH - #Inflation is WAY DOWN from the #BiDUMB #STAGflation days, and still going lower (but not as low as we want/need them YET - as LEFT blocks sound #policy that would have had us back to the #POTUS45 under 2% inflation days)!
#FACTS - handing the keys back to those who COMPLETELY RUINED the #Economy under #Biden (The #CommieFasciSocies-ocrats) and gave us that #hyperinflation WILL MAKE THINGS WORSE (like they were just a few short years ago, sad people have such short memories) NOT BETTER.
#FACTS: Every #CommieFasciSocies-ocrats #Voted NO trying to BLOCK you from having more money in your pockets via #NoTaxOnTips and #NoTaxOnOT (and the massive uptick in #GDP growth benefiting ALL WORKING AMERICANS with #WAGES growing at a far faster pace than the Biden years and you ...
