Alma ,let it rest, frank and open discussion is not something a lot of people can stomach.
Here is a story i always think about whenever people tell me about the devil,its fictional but makes a lot of sense and that is why symbols and secret societies never bother me.
After all most artistes are "crazy" and want to be seen to be different.I once heard from someone who smoked an illegal substance that he saw bears flying ,now some of these musicians write music "under the influence" of drugs.They invent crazy stories in order to be seen to be different,i could go on and on
Here is the story....
The boy and the devil- By Paulo Coelho
The boy was walking to buy bread when the mayor of the city crossed the street.
‘The reason he is so powerful, is because, he’s made a pact with the devil,’ a very devout woman in the street told the boy.
Some time later, when travelling to another town, the boy saw a beautiful corn field. He asked who the owner was.
‘All this land belongs to the same man. I’d say the Devil had a hand in that.’ – answered one of the villagers.
At this very moment, a beautiful woman walked past the boy. A priest also saw her and said aloud:
‘That woman is in the services of Satan!’
From then on, the boy decided to seek the Devil out. One day he managed to see him face to face.
‘They say you can make people powerful, rich, and beautiful.’
‘To be totally honest, this is not true’ replied the Devil.
‘You have just been listening to the views of those who are trying to promote me.’
“You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”
― Anne Lamott
