Lost Worlds: The History of the Devil

The idea of Gods evil enemy has been around for thousands of years. While early Christian clerics used the Devil as a symbol of heresy, the concept did not begin with the Christian Bible, but rather in ancient Persia some 3500 year ago. Since then, he has acquired horns, a forked tail and innumerable names in all aspects of world culture as well as a central role in the way we think. The History of the Devil looks at how our concept of evil, as symbolized by the Devil, has evolved over the centuries to fit the needs of government, churches, demagogues and opportunists everywhere.

  • @ndzoko o, the arrogance. You must 16. You're just an ant my friend, god doesn't give a fuck about you, if you don't believe in him, he doesn't care. He's laughing at you, toying with you and all atheists like you because you're actually so foolish as to think you're the smartest beings in the Universe, but his IQ's 1000 000 and he's just laughing at the caricature's of himself, way off. It's your loss, not his.
