Satan no match for God, says pope

Pope Benedict: "The Lord is supreme arbiter of history."
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) -- Satan is still at work in the world
unleashing "evil energy" but God will be the final arbiter of history,
Pope Benedict XVI said on Wednesday.
Speaking at the third general audience since his election last month,
the pope also said that nations and leaders had to look for God's hand
in history in the past and learn from it.
"History, in fact, is not in the hands of dark forces, left to chance
or just human choices," he told thousands of people in St. Peter's
Square.
"Above the unleashing of evil energy, above the vehement interruptions
of Satan, above the so many scourges of evil, rises the Lord, supreme
arbiter of history," the pope said in an address reflecting on the
Book of Revelation in the Bible.
He urged Catholics to look for and recognise what he called "hidden
divine interventions in history".
The 78-year-old German Pope, elected on April 19, again mingled with
people in the crowd at the end of the audience.
He stopped to talk to handicapped people and personally greeted dozens
of well-wishers.
Continuing in the tradition of his predecessor, John Paul II, he
delivered the address in Italian and read summaries or greetings in
some 10 other languages.

I'm just picturing the front page photo on Weekly World News of God
giving Satan an Atomic Back Breaker in the 'square circle'.

LOL ... oh come on Woods!!! It's a classic move where a wrestler lifts
his opponent high over his head and drops him, spin down, across his knee!
Do you remember Nature Boy Rick Flair? Rowdy Roddy Piper? Killer Khan?
Jake 'The Snake' Roberts? Man oh man ... I *loved* Saturday/Sunday
afternoons watching the Good Vs. Evil bouts of 'professional' wrestling.
Funnier still is about a year ago we were out for dinner and my youngest
daughter suddenly burst out with a manic laugh ... apparently they had
'pro' wrestling on the TV and she couldn't believe the incredible moves
.... I almost choked laughing when I saw it.

WWF in the 80's, those were the days!
Rowdy Roddy Piper going amoc was a regular feature.
And poor Elisabeth, Macho Man's sexy sidekick died after taking an
overdose of drugs in August 2003.

My stepfather used to watch wrestling, and we'd just roll our eyes,
laugh, and leave the room. Sorry, but I just never got the whole WWF
thing. I mean, the audience seems to take it all so seriously - it's
disturbing that they think it's all real. Now, if they were all
laughing about the wrestlers hamming it up, then I might have been able
to watch it.

Hacksaw Jim Reynolds!
THAT was a 'good guy' that the crowds ate up in massive portions!

The truth is out there,
but it's not interesting enough for most people.
