Devil, n. The author of all our woes and proprietor of all the good things in the world. He was made by the almighty, but brought into the world by woman.
How many people can say they've been reviewed by the devil? I mean, besides Charlie Daniels and just about every other author, actor, musician, poet and job applicant.

Extra credit update: The great enemy of every Christian, Jew and Muslim except for each other.

ReplyDeleteIt was God who allowed the devil his time! not woman!
Salaam, Morningdew. It was Ambrose Bierce who made the comment about the devil and is probably on intimate terms at this point.
ReplyDeleteDevil, n. Said to be the key nemesis within the Judeo-Christian mythos, despite merely having a "D" in evil.

ReplyDeleteAnother bit of brilliance! That last sentence rings very, very startingly true.
ReplyDeleteSeñor Enrique (Papi Brujo,) I knew I forgot to cast aspersions on someone. My apologies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, again, Tara for commenting and kindly. Sadly, that's what I thought when I wrote it.
Devil. The voice of desire buoyed by lack of restraint.
ReplyDeleteDesire without restraint. Could apply to the Devil or the internet, really.
