... I heard Satan was once an Angel. He (it?) did something bad and was given the heave-ho by God. Soooooo... when God begat Jesus with Mary, I think that was God's way to be a little nicer. No more genocides a la Noah and the ark. Well, why can't Satan be forgiven, too? Maybe he's been forgiven, and we haven't heard about it, yet? Then, having Satanists should be okay, right? I guess I'm just an eternal optimist.

was kicked out of heaven for bringing enlightenment to those mud people living on that globe of mud?
Prometheus, Lucifer, Lightbringer all the same name for free-thought and self-enlightenment without the bonds of religion. Ahura Mazda was another that taught enlightenment and self-knowledge.

This display actually made me proud to be an Iowan for a change.

BTW, if you've never heard Chris Plante, you're lucky. Do yourself a favor and avoid him if you can.
