If I Were the Devil - (BEST VERSION) by PAUL HARVEY audio restored

(WORDS on screen - AUDIO repaired) Long time radio newsman/commentator Paul Harvey created the original of this homily around 1965. This one is probably from about 1996. It was updated as the years went by and therefore versions of it vary over time. It is a warning to America about its own decay.

This audio has been corrected for proper speed and pitch and is good as I can make it at this time. Unfortunately, phasing and background noise persist.

USA A Country full of stupids!! in germany we are happy to got rid of religious scum. Now its in usa....thank you!

If you're so happy not to have religion in YOUR life, why would you me be seeking out a religious video on YouTube? Something must be missing.

[anherher]

This is so true of today here in America and across the globe. First, thanks for the video it is amazing. Second, wanted to let you know that at 2:22 it is "give to those that want it." Thanks again for your post.

[bctvguy]

LISTEN carefully on a headset - the line is exactly as it appears in the video:

"If I were the devil, I’d take from those who have and give to those who wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious."

And isn't that precisely what obama has done with the millions he has added to the food stamp, welfare and disability roles?

And if you pay for your own healthcare insurance, your premiums are skyrocketing as you cover those who pay little or nothing.

Most of the Mess began about 50 Years ago:

'45 Goals Communist Party USA'.

[bctvguy]

I have read those communist goals and this pres certainly matches those plans. He appears to be a key part of the process.  Make people more dependent on gov't - follow the alinsky model - create crisis after crisis - spend beyond your means and so on.

[kreamowheat]

spot on. Even if you dont believe in God, you have to admit this stuff is going on and its destroying society.

There is no religion in Germany, you are all gay and swingers. The Turkish are moving into your country and multiplying at a much more rapid rate than the native Germans. The Turks and Muslims have religion and children and will be running your parliament in 50 years and your culture will die. It sucks because I am an ethnic German and feel sympathy for my ancestors country turning into a muslim state. Whether God exists or not, religion creates fertility and thus is healthy for cultures. 8====D

Thanks for sharing the video 'If I was the devil' just think this was made how many years ago and its going on now right before your eyes if you have eyes and ears to hear what the spirit says to the churchs meaning US You and Me.

Ain't that the truth.

[redenstein]

Spoken like a true Nazi.

[WELanning]

Hell... I thought we got rid of the stupid idiots in Germany when we demolished the NAZIs, but it seems a few morons like you, reinhart, have managed to survive... like cockroaches...

[DwightSimpson]

You sound bitter for someone who has "free choice." You;ll definitely rethink your position in the future.
