Ruin By The Millions

Three apprentice devils were preparing to come to earth to finish their apprenticeship.  Satan, the Prince of Darkness, appeared before them and questioned them about their plans to tempt and ruin people.

The first said, “I will tell people that there is no God.”  Satan answered, “You will deceive only a few that way because deep down people sense there must be a God.”

The second apprentice spoke, “I will tell them there is no hell.”  “You will fool only a few that way,” replied Satan, “because deep down people know one day they will have to answer for their misdeeds.”

Finally, the third apprentice declared, “I will tell people that there is no hurry.”  With that, Satan laughed with delight and predicted, “You will ruin them by the millions.”

Let's not listen to number 3.
