that saying sounds interesting but it makes little sense. Hypothetically if the devil showed up and he announced that everyone who kills, hurts others, steals etc worships him, would people stop doing those things?

after "behind the curtain" I have no idea what you're talking about, but you're absolutely right about the devil.

What is hard to understand, working from the shadows makes you invisible to the enemy, so you have control.If you still don't understand then I assume you have never seen The Usual Suspects, where the thread title quote is from, and Kaiser Soze who the quote is about.

Explain, how doesn't everything I said not relate to the Kaiser Soze character? Apart from the fact he limped instead of smiled.

You misunderstand. It's not directed at his followers. It's directed at those who do not believe evil exists... Like peaceniks or hippy go free frees. Those who believe everyone is nice and pure etc. Those fools have been tricked... Followers and the faithful understand evil is real.

makes sense, but even those hippies etc know evil exist, they simply act like they dont in hopes others see them as some pure great humans that cannot even understand evil

Revelation 12:9: "that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world."

For all the people in the world who believe in God, few know much about Satan.

When most people think of Satan, they think of that guy in the red suit with two horns and a pitchfork.

They picture him ruling over a fiery hell in which souls are tormented day and night on some kind of eternal charbroiler.

None of this could be further from the truth, and we should know better,
"Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices"

No point in talking about god imho, whatever it is that created the universe, it will be something our feeble human IQs won't even be able to process, none of this god in a human image nonsense.

There is no good or evil, and no god or satan.. these are human, animal traits and inventions of man's mind.

There are definitely smarter, stronger, richer, powerful people who toy with weaker, poorer people tho.

it makes sense tho to realize there is no god and that we re just animals blindly fighting for survival until one day we cant adapt anymore. Sometimes things exist without any meaning, they just are. It s a human trait to create, build meaning.

Apes probably invented the concept of god(s), mysticism, spirituality when facing the death of others killed by random events / natural cataclysm; they thought "why havent i been killed, i must have been "selected" by ..a father (god) or mother (godess) , a "spirit", by "nature" a tree, a rock etc.

Basically god is always a father who selects, pick, chooses. Just like our father selected, picked, chose for us when we were kids. Virgin mary is the perfect mother figure. Because of anthropomorphism we create all these gods and godesses based on the relationship with father and mother we had in childhood and extrapolated to random events. Our ancestors convinced themselves they were chosen by a father in the sky when it was in fact pure randomness that allowed them to survive while other died. It s also said that some people are smarter than others and inherit their superior knowledge that gives them an edge above other less intelligent people because of "god(s)" spirits, when in fact it's advices and education coming from caregivers, fathers, mothers, grandfathers etc that gave them that edge, not some "god".

Sure how far do you have to look to know that evil is real in the world, whether it comes from the a being called the devil is another story.

I think it is more difficult to comprehend that the Divine Spirit is real. That there is a state of being that is our true selfhood and the essential nature of which is truth,conciousness and bliss.

the whole universe is Gods physical form not just one man who lived 2000 years ago.

why would the universe be a man, be created by a man, be a man's mind... etc...i just dont see the link; the universe is the universe, man is an animal species that evolved on earth... A product of the universe, not the oposite.

The universe would continue to exist without mans mind but couldn't not exist without gods being or whatever one wishes to call it, a supraphysical intelligent ground of being. The source of our being and the source of the universes being are one and the same, so we can unite with that. Not that I think you are interested in any of that.
