Philip Mauro introduces here a unique argument about God and the Devil; namely that Satan's mission was not to make mankind evil, but merely good without the influence of God. Using scriptural references to support his arguments, the author sets out to demonstrate the interplay between God, Satan and mankind. Over the course of his central argument, Mauro touches on many points ranging from the lessons on life conferred by the Bible and what it is to be a faithful believer in the Christian Lord. Although Mauro agrees that Satan is a corrupting influence on Christianity and its power to do good on the Earth, he also asserts that Satan's motives are not as simple as mere evil-doing. The devil desires that humanity carry out their virtues and live in harmony, but uncouple themselves from any belief in God - essentially, that they be atheistic and turn their back on the Lord. Later in the text, Mauro offers counter-arguments to evolutionary theory, lambasting the implications of this science as blasphemy.
