There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall
about the devils. One is to disbelieve in there existence. The other is to
believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them.

They themselves are equally pleased by both errors,
and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight.

transcendent evil, supernatural evil, we don’t believe in that…
