3. Damn good article
And something I've been trying to get across here on DU - that many in this mis-administration, and some of the ReichWing, truly believe they are doing the will of God and fighting against Satan in the hopes of bringing in the end times; and that, therefore, we need to try to understand their brand of Christianity in order to know what they're really up to, instead of just disparaging all of Christianity, and focusing on the political.

Excellent article! And man, it's annoying whenever I read something like this and realize just how truly dangerous, misguided, misinformed, and duped the people who believe that Satan is taking a very active role in the world is.

For me, I prefer to pin sin on individual people, and not blame it on Satan.
