“And Demons”

“Demons exist for those amongst you who ‘choose’ to believe they exist.  In essence the ‘belief itself’ becomes the Demon.”

“How is it possible after being shown the ‘truth’ of the suffering you have caused others to be so untouched and unconcerned?”

I ask… “What happens to make people like this?”

“Extreme emotion, be it positive or negative ‘needs to be experience’ to allow souls to define and develop themselves. Those who lack the skills or willingness to cultivate a positive life experience turn to the destructive power of extreme negative emotional experiences to satisfy this need.  Once this happens, the only way to justify the suffering ‘they’ inflict on others is by transferring the blame away from themselves.  The circle of lies is cold comfort, but comfort non the less.

“I am the witness to the evil that men commit” he replies…

“At the final reckoning all men must face the truth and consequences of their own actions.  My presence is alway felt by the people who, by their direct, indirect or lack of action cause pain, distress and suffering to others.  It is men who commit evil, not I.  I am the witness who must eternally suffer watching the pain of others.  I am the witness who is condemned by all as being the cause.  I am the witness who will show you the truth of what you have done to others.”

His words completely disarm me.  And as much as much as I try not to, my fear has been replaced by a deep sadness for the unimaginable suffering of the creature before me…
