When evil raises its ugly head causing people to behave deplorably, the usual quote is ' The Devil made me do it ' this ofcourse is not quite true.
Admittedly the forces of positivity and negativity exists and we can be influenced by either, but we are the ones that put it in to action, we make the decision what form it will take. It is time that we took responsibility for what we do.

"""when evil raises its ugly head causing people to behave deplorably, the usual quote is ' The Devil made me do it ' this ofcourse is not quite true.""
no it isn't the usual quote at all....most people behaving deplorably do so because they can.. or they want to...or to keep up with their friends ....very few people mention the devil these days unless they are mentally disturbed

I thought you believed that 'karma made me do it,' Scottish Lassie. So is karma another name for the Devil?

Here's a whole thread set up to talk about "Truth".
For most people, Truth is what they would like for it to be.

I thought you believed that 'karma made me do it,' Scottish Lassie. So is karma another name for the Devil? People are influenced by the two forces that exist, positivity and negativity. Because of ignorance people tend to choose that which ends up being a negative choice as it is of no real benefit for the person should they want nice things happening in their life. From that point in time it may lead the person to blunder some more with life becoming steadily worse. If they are wise, they might be able to rectify the situation so that life begins to improve. It is up to the person.

For most people, Truth is what they would like for it to be. truth is truth regardless of whether you personally like it or not We all learn the truth step by step. If we were given the full truth of what constitutes life, we could become deranged. We would certainly not accept it as it would seem to be too unbelievable.

Pick any extant species from any phylum and apply that test.

what does the devil made me do it have to do with truth as opposed to excusive fiction Some criminals and mentally ill people have been known to use that term. But there was an American TV program where the star of the show would say that. It was a comedy.

Truth is more than black and white. It's often loaded with colors in all their many shades. I follow the Wheel of the Year, so that's my Truth. A lot of other people agree but nobody else has to for me to accept the associated Truth. I can see it every day as the seasons change and hear it in every bird song. Lassie, your problems with religion might start and stop with trying to get people to agree with you. I guess ECK wants you to win converts in the same way Chef thinks she has to win souls. The people you talk to here have their own beliefs, commitments and truths. Let them think what they want to and enjoy your own. There's nothing to stop you from telling us about the things you have faith in that make you happy. If the people who try to tear them down hit you between the eyes, tell them if they don't want it, they can't have any.
