Satan.n.
One of the Creator's lamentable mistakes, repented in sashcloth and axes. Being instated as an archangel, Satan made himself multifariously objectionable and was finally expelled from Heaven. Halfway in his descent he paused, bent his head in thought a moment and at last went back. "There is one favor that I should like to ask," said he.
"Name
it."
"Man,
I understand, is about to be created. He will need laws."
"What,
wretch! you his appointed adversary, charged from the dawn of eternity with
hatred of his soul -- you ask for the right to make his laws?"
"Pardon;
what I have to ask is that he be permitted to make them himself."
It was so ordered.

Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
