The following metaphors are used in the above video:

1. The “revolution” spoken of by the devil is a revolution against GOD.
2. The “acquittals” spoken of by the devil are acquittals UNDER GOD’S LAWS, not man’s laws.
3. When the devil says God is “an absentee landlord”, he referring to God as the OWNER of the Heaven and the Earth (Psalm 89:11) and therefore the only legitimate “lawgiver” or “rule maker” under Article 4, Section 3, Clause 2 of the Constitution. See the following for more details on how the LAWS OF PROPERTY are the vehicle for corrupting a society:
   HOT ISSUES: Laws of Property
4. The fact that the devil is the HEAD of a “law firm” indicates that he wants to replace God as the “lawgiver”. Isaiah 33:22.
5. The fact that the devil wants to use primarily “law” as a way to wage revolution against God indicates that he is warring against the very NATURE of God as LAW itself. See John 1:1. It is also an indication that the legal profession itself is the corrupter of all modern societies. That is why the ONLY people Jesus ever got angry at were the Pharisee lawyers of his time, who made profession out of SUBVERTING God’s Laws. See:
   5.1. Luke 11.
   5.2. Who Were the Pharisees and the Sadducees?, Form #05.047
6. The fact that the devil wants to “write a new book” is evidence of his desire to REPLACE God’s laws with his OWN humanistic laws, and thus to rebel against God and introduce ANARCHY under God’s laws into society.

The plight of the protagonist in the above video is described in:

“What manner of men had lived in those days…who had so eagerly surrendered their sovereignty for a lie and a delusion? Why had they been so anxious to believe that the government could solve problems for them which had been pridefully solved, many times over, by their fathers? Had their characters become so weak and debased, so craven and emasculated, that offers of government dole had become more important than their liberty and their humanity? Had they not known that power delegated to the government becomes the club of tyrants? They must have known. They had their own history to remember, and the history of five thousand years. Yet, they had willingly and knowingly, with all this knowledge, declared themselves unfit to manage their own affairs and had placed their lives, which belonged to God only, in the hands of sinister men who had long plotted to enslave them, by wars, by “directives,” by “emergencies.” In the name of the American people, the American people had been made captive.”
[Taylor Caldwell, The Devil’s Advocate]

For a description in moral terms of the temptation in the scene above, see the following statement on our opening page, which also describes the ONLY biblical way to respond to it:

People of all races, genders, political beliefs, sexual orientations, and nearly all religions are welcome here. All are treated equally under REAL “law”. The only way to remain truly free and equal under the civil law is to avoid seeking government civil services, benefits, property, special or civil status, exemptions, privileges, or special treatment.  All such pursuits of government services or property require individual and lawful consent to a franchise and the surrender of inalienable constitutional rights AND EQUALITY in the process, and should therefore be AVOIDED.  The rights and equality given up are the “cost” of procuring the “benefit” or property from the government, in fact.  Nothing in life is truly “free”.  Anyone who claims that such “benefits” or property should be free and cost them nothing is a thief who wants to use the government as a means to STEAL on his or her behalf. All just rights spring from responsibilities/obligations under the laws of a higher power.  If that higher power is God, you can be truly and objectively free.  If it is government, you are guaranteed to be a slave because they can lawfully set the cost of their property as high as they want as a Merchant under the U.C.C.    If you want it really bad from people with a monopoly, then you will get it REALLY bad. Bend over.  There are NO constitutional limits on the price government can charge for their monopoly services or property.  Those who want no responsibilities can have no real/PRIVATE rights, but only privileges dispensed to wards of the state which are disguised to LOOK like unalienable rights.  Obligations and rights are two sides of the same coin, just like self-ownership and personal responsibility.  For the biblical version of this paragraph, read 1 Sam. 8:10-22.  For the reason God answered Samuel by telling him to allow the people to have a king, read Deut. 28:43-51, which is God’s curse upon those who allow a king above them.  Click Here for a detailed description of the legal, moral, and spiritual consequences of violating this paragraph.

The above movie is described below, but it was based on a novel written by someone OTHER than Taylor Caldwell:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil’s_Advocate_(1997_film)

Al Pacino/The Devil in the movie:

1. Admits that you have to CONSENT in order to join him. There is no other way. See:
   Requirement for Consent, Form #05.003
   https://sedm.org/Forms/05-MemLaw/Consent.pdf
2. Refers to God as “an absentee Landlord”. This is an indirect reference to Psalm 89:11.
3. Refers to ALL lawyers as the Devil’s agents. See Psalm 94:20.
4. Says the Devil Is going to use his lawyer agents to produce “acquittal after acquittal” so it STINKS up Heaven itself. He is referring to anarchism towards God’s law as described below:

For an example of EXACTLY how the FACT of having “volunteered” is established at a very practical level in a REAL secular court, see:

The following video describes in detail the psychology and behavior of Satanic people such as Al Pacino featured in the movie so that you can recognize them immediately when you meet them:

The following books also describe in detail satanic people such as Al Pacino:

1. The Prince, Niccolo Machiavelli
2. The 48 Laws of Power, Robert Greene

Al Pacino, the main character in the movie, was a freemason.  For information on Freemasons, see:

The following video describes the DEVIL portrayed in the above video in an EXCELLENT and succinct summation of what is wrong with present society. What Molyneux is describing as the source of the corruption is the abuse of franchises and benefits to destroy the sovereignty and freedom of the people, which he calls “the welfare state”, but its the same thing. He is an atheist, but we agree with his analysis nonetheless:

What Pisses Me Off About Western Civilization (OFFSITE LINK)-Stefan Molyneux

Lastly, Molyneux also provides an explanation of the philosophical implications of the Temptation of Jesus in the Wilderness by Satan, which is the Biblical version of the above video in the following article on this site.  His speech is to a religious gathering of Christians:
