Okay, I don't believe in Satan.
In case you are wondering, I don't believe in a lot other stuff either. Still, this guy looks like one I'd avoid in a dark alley. I might have a conversation with him at Barnes and Noble though.
I admit there were times in my past that there were people I would have enough reason to feel "ill will" about. That person who made your life miserable. I might have wished her (or him) a wart on their nose. Or maybe even worse. But those days are gone.
I may be so much less passionate now that I really don't have the capacity to "hate". Neither do I have the capacity for great passion and the energy it takes to wish someone bad luck. That does not mean that I am a "turn the other cheek" kind of gal. I am not.
But I don't waste emotion wishing people "bad luck" or harm. If someone makes my life less enjoyable, I cut them out of it. I don't "hate" the person. I simply delete the person. That may sound cold, and I'm sure it is, but if you can't bring some joy to my party, don't bother to come.
I do dislike people who are not tolerant of others. I really get bothered when someone tries to tell me that one group is less favored than some other group. I don't hate those people, but I know they are stupid.
Satan be damned!
