Satan Divided Against Himself

 Remember what Sorath wants — for men to hate the good as such and to pursue evil strictly for the evulz — and how contrary to human nature that is. How to get us humans to sail against the wind of our own deepest nature? By tacking, of course.

• Sorath’s goal: Avoid good, pursue evil

• Human nature: Pursue good, avoid evil

• Lucifer tack: Sacrifice the avoidance of evil in order to pursue good (e.g. to seek pleasure)

• Ahriman tack: Sacrifice the pursuit of good in order to avoid evil (e.g. to be “safe”)

Full of Virtue Set goodness.
