Many people in government worship power and money, which are TOOLS of Satan. But they'd probably freak if they thought they worshipped Satan directly.

It seems that way at times doesn't it?
In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.
Love and blessings

Our government, and those who aspire to be a part of it, worship power. A big government is like a cancerous tumor. This is why we must always distrust government and try to keep it as small as possible.

NOT INTENTIONALLY, I DON'T BELIEVE, BUT THEIR ACTIONS SURE DO MAKE A PERSON WONDER. SATAN IS VERY SHREWD AND ONE SECOND YOUR O.K. AND THE NEXT YOU HAVE EXTREME PRESSURE THAT FORCES YOU INTO PLAYING IN THE ABOMINATION'S WHILES. PRAY IT ISN'T TRUE BUT SATAN IS SMARTER THAN MAN!! HE ONCE WAS AN ANGEL.
