Rejoinder to a pecksniffian

What a "red herring" bent of mind and with a grandiose extrapolation to fit! One could properly reply to your assertions that it is the One most merciful and wise God Who is behind the errands of the Angels as well as the tricks of the Devils . . . and pity yourself sir because you have not quite pondered how Satan could have tempted God's dearest creature Adam to commit himself to the apple, and fall from His grace to the wiles of human society and moral tribulations.

Choose to do good from the bad, and then prefer what is better still ( the heart's purity will evince for you your divinely bestowed conscience) and may God forgive us all for our failures and help us to start over in right faith.
