“If you look for Evil and believe in it, you accept the diabolical as natural and hence unchallengeable; and open yourself to becoming Evil yourself in the quest to defeat what you fear. Satan is the personified place-holder, the boogie monster, the conscious manipulator who is using this or that evil thing to wreak disaster and havoc on humanity. Thus “rock and roll” is Satanic, as is dancing, gay marriage, and in more conservative countries, revealed skin, holding hands, educated women—but these definitions are fluid. What definition applies completely to Satan himself; what is is evil by itself? What made Satan evil?”
