Where did all this Lucifer talk come from? Dr. Carson had a comment in his speech:
The message from the retired neurosurgeon was startling—by electing presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, the United States would be choosing a person "who has as their role model somebody who acknowledges Lucifer."
Carson was referencing Saul Alinsky's comment at the beginning of the book. Alinsky, a community organizer and advisor to radicals offers advice to those who wish to exert pressure on and change the establishment. Who among us does not want to do that to one degree or another? Too, don't all mainstream Christians acknowledge Lucifer in that they recognize that he exists?
From the Amazon site:
First published in 1971, Rules for Radicals is Saul Alinsky's impassioned counsel to young radicals on how to effect constructive social change and know “the difference between being a realistic radical and being a rhetorical one.”
Here's what Alinsky wrote at the beginning of his book:
"Let them call me rebel and welcome, I feel no concern from it; but I should suffer the misery of devils, were I to make a whore of my soul..." Thomas Paine
Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins--or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom--Lucifer. Saul Alinsky
Make of this what you will.
