- Nothing, as far as I know, prevents Satanists from infiltrating
- pro-life organizations, placing themselves in key positions, and using
- those positions to advance the cause of Satan. They can even
- infiltrate your congregation and do a fine simulation of Christian
- fervor. *Nothing* will prevent them from pretending to praise God
- without meaning it. God won't stop them: not all who say "Lord, Lord"
- are bound for the Kingdom of Heaven. And the Father of Lies can be
- counted on to view their duplicity with approval. It must be assumed
- that all large pro-life organizations and Christian congregations and
- many of the smaller ones have Satanist infiltrators. But it will be
- very difficult, or perhaps impossible, to tell the Satanists from the
- true Christians.

- Their doing so is evidently evil. So why won't god stop them?
- Is he not all powerful and all knowing? Maybe he doesn't care? In
- which case, what makes you think that sacrifice is, in fact, evil?
- For thousands of years, my ancestors, and probably yours as well,
- practiced human sacrifice. Actually, until quite recently, historically.
- Usually of adults, not children, however. They believed this to be
- a good and ethical practice, sanctioned by the gods they respected.
- Perhaps you don't respect your own ancestors? Perhaps this entire
- discussion should be relegated to some other forum.
