To do so is to deceive yourself, and this will hurt you because you really understand the strength of the mind.
You also realize that you cannot weaken it, any more than you can weaken God.
The "devil" is a frightening concept because he seems to be extremely powerful and extremely active. He is perceived as a force in combat with God, battling Him for possession of His creations.
The devil deceives by lies, and builds kingdoms in which everything is in direct opposition to God.
Yet he attracts men rather than repels them, and they are willing to "sell" him their souls in return for gifts of no real worth.
This makes absolutely no sense.
