The phrase used by a priest I know is not “diabolical deception” but “demonic inversion”. What finer way to attack The Word than to attack and invert the very meaning of reality? It is most obvious in the Church because the Church is founded in Truth and has a guaranteed defence against error. Democracy has no such defence. Democracy is an ideal. Noble when shared by a people, and absolutely useless when under subtle attack from within. Heck, it’s not even that subtle.
Well thought out and written, Steve. A thought occurred to me on Sunday as I stood in church. Who would have ever imagined that we would live in a time when the smoke of Satan covered the entire civilized world? But here we are. As for the election, Trump won on Election Day, and he forces of evil have been working their evil magic to steal it from him. There’s not much he can really do until they stop their count (because they’d just keep it up forever). But once they do, he can then go on the offensive. He and Rudy crushed the five mafia families in New York. Does anyone really think these petty bureaucrats have more power than that foe?

Keep thinking Steve, keep writing, keep speaking....just keep doing it...if you stop...you will go quiet and go under.
Steve, God has given you a gift to put words together well. Put them together for His glory and and without fear. Thank you and Deo gratias
The dancing hyena sets in the North !
