If I Were The Devil
By Paul Harvey

1. I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world;

2. I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's effort, instead of God's blessings;

3. I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around;

4. I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their state revenue;

5. I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership;

6. I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies;

7. I would make it socially acceptable to take one's own life, and invent machines to make it convenient;

8. I would cheapen human life as much as possible, so that the lives of animals are valued more than human beings;

9. I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a lawsuit;

10. I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them;

11. I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollute the mind of every family member for my agenda;

12. I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation;

13. I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable, because if the family crumbles, so does the nation;

14. I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie screens, and I would call it art;

15. I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled;

16. I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities, and refer to their agenda as politically correct.

17. I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, and the Bible is for the naive;

18. I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional;

19. I guess I would leave things pretty much the way they are.

Good Day
