“Why,” Jill asked. “What's in it for them?”

“The Society for Human Enlightenment believes if they can get enough people going to Hell, God will blink,” Allison replied.

“What?”

“Like in a stare down,” Allison explained, “you know, who ever blinks first loses.”

“Their goal is to have so many people go to Hell that God will give in. The idea is if God forgives everyone who didn’t accept Christ, then He has to forgive Satan as well,” Guzetti said.

“Can that happened? Could Satan win somehow?”

“No, it can’t happen. Satan should know this as well, but he doesn’t, not anymore. Remember, no matter how wise someone is, when the presence of God is withdrawn from them, they deteriorate. That’s what’s happening to Satan, his mind is going. Satan's plan can’t work, but he and The Society don’t know that. What’s in it for them? Power. Better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven.”
