"Devil Worship" is a Redundant Term
page: 10

That is, anyone who would even tolerate, much less require, worship, is by definition enough of a Saddam Hussein-level egomaniac to automatically
qualify as a "devil," or in intelligent enough, scientific-rational language (what a concept), a malevolent (or at least primarily malevolent)
person or being. Worship, or shallow, hollow, pathetic idolization is something only the grossly primitive and morally deficient mafioso types are
into. If there's an even tiny grain of truth to the existence of the "Yahweh" creature of the Old Testament, he most certainly was only a
psychopathic human, or human-looking alien, with access to advanced technology (and/or whatever else of undefined SCIENCE), and certainly NOT the
Creator of the universe.
Love and, AT MOST, admiration is always great, as long as it is clearly deserved and, even more importantly, reciprocated. Worship is ONLY of and for the dark side. If ever applicable, any morally-ethically advanced beings (plural!) won't bother revealing themselves to us primarily (or effectively solely) because of the majority of various primitive, paranoid true believers and worshippers on this planet.
The cultist mentality doesn't apply to only those who belong to what is recognized TODAY as a cult. Cultists include all religions AND followers of dominant or popular politics-government, of which the latter is secrecy-BASED. True believers of all types, who by definition aren't interested in objective truths, are what are holding us back, preventing REAL progress and growth.

Dean Goldberry,
I see from what you posted you do believe in love. You should follow that further. As for YHWH He is a Spirit and John the Revelator says of Him. Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. KJV The Love we have for the right is the worship He requires. He is Love. 1Jo 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. To love right is to love Him and that is the worship he desires. No yoke is put on one in no way and one is not brought down in any manner. No degradation whatever. I find too many have the wrong concept of Yahweh. If we truly have love we need not know the law of love because love fulfils the Law. 1Jo 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
