Then why did the Lord make the Devil?

Because taking is as important as making.

None of the "proper nouns" are capitalized... significant? I think it is. Makes my mind drift to politics rather than religion. Nice!

Thank you Avy :D That started as a stylistic decision but now that you mention it, it did the door for interpretations :P

so short but wow.... that's deep!!!
is it about religion or about just a person...?
i guess it all depends on us right... to weigh each wants into a balance...

Thank you Pax...this is possibly the most concise short piece I've ever come up with :) I think it can be taken in whatever way the reader wishes to take it...
