Devil-worshippers are in the business of temptation.
Devil-worshippers in rock music tempted the Baby-Boomers to take drugs and practise Yoga - for which we are condemned.
They tempted Generation X to judge and condemn the Hippies for taking drugs and loose morals.
They tempted the Religious Right to judge and damn the Hippies and the political left for involvement with Satanism in rock music.
They tempted Ronald Reagan to use judgement and demonization as weapons against the political left, and to rely on Satanism and violence in Generation X to win.
They tempted the political right to use judgement and damnation as a weapon against the left.
They tempted Rupert Murdoch to use his media empire as a propaganda machine.
And they tempted the older generation to feel morally superior and practise hypocrisy.
But the Hippies were betrayed by their rock stars.
Generation X were misled by rock stars and politicians.
The Religious Right were led astray by their leaders.
Ronald Reagan and Rupert Murdoch were corrupted by power.
The political right was led astray by Ronald Reagan.
And the older generation were opportunistic and hypocritical.
In the end no one is guilty.
Even the devil-worshippers themselves were reacting to a false image of God.
God condemns no one.
He reveals the truth.
And He forgives.
