But who knows? Maybe Satan hypnotized me into thinking this. Well, you know what they say: the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world Galapagos finches did exist. ---

> [@FriarTed](#): > > Was Roger Morneau really in a Satanic cult? Perhaps, perhaps not. No. There is _no_ group of self-described Satanists or Luciferians or what-have-you that believes or even claims to believe this whole “Satan’s council” nonsense. And there is _no_ group of Spiritualists which considers itself Satanic, Luciferian or anything of the sort. Morneau was clearly full of shit. ---

I believe mr. Morneau 100% because thé man was saved by the power of the holy spirit. Satan ils the man of great déception ans his plan is to turn you away from Jésus christ who shed is blood on the cross for me and you, was buried, ans rose on the third day. Adventist keep thé sabbath the fourth commandement, they keep it holy. Sunday will be the the mark of thé beast verry soon. All religion at the moment are on Sunday wich is sunworship which is pagan and was changed by Constantine. The new âge religion is here ans a lot of souls won’t be saved and satan with is lies and deception he puts doubts in people’s head. That’s all he needs to do. People are sleeping!!! Good day ---

I was a big fan of your work on _The Uncanny X-Men_ in the 80’s Mr. Claremont. I thought Marvel really screwed you over. ---

If Satan held a “Conference”, exactly who or what would attend? It’s not like Christianity posits a large number of Satan’s equals, and why would Satan need a “Conference” to make his plans? A conference is a meeting of relative equals to draw form each their knowledge and theories to form a conclusion. A “Conference” in which there is only one actor is not a conference, a lecture, perhaps. But, as thre is no Satan, no God or gods, just people stumbling along as best we can, maybe the OP would be better served learning what PEOPLE have found true, and not worry about theoretical entities and their plots, regardless if these “plots” or “designs” be helpful or harmful to Humanity. ---
