Symposium: Cult of acceptance
Socrates (470-399 B.C.) was a famous Greek philosopher from Athens who taught Plato. Plato taught Aristotle, and Aristotle taught Alexander the Great. Socrates used a simple but cleverly profound method of teaching by asking revelatory, piercing questions. The Greeks called this form “dialectic” – starting from a thesis or question, then discussing ideas and moving back and forth between points of view to determine how well ideas stand up to critical review, with the ultimate principle of the dialogue being veritas – truth.
Note: This symposium is based on the biblical passages 1 Kings 22: 1-24 and 1 John 2:16. (For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.)
Characters:
Socrates
Jesus Christ
Satan
Demon No. 1 (Beelzebub, the chief demon)
Demon No. 2 (Hedonism = lust of the flesh)
Demon No. 3 (Evolution Atheism = lust of the eyes)

(Setting: Symposium of Socrates, inside the abode of hell)
Socrates: In this my blackest, diabolical symposium, we are gathered this dark night in Satan’s abode of hell to discuss a paradox of the ages: Why are the children of men so predisposed to cast away everything of value – logic, reason, friends, family, God, the Bible, the Constitution, a meaningful life, innocent little babies – to embrace the depraved Cult of Acceptance?
Satan: (meeting with his chief demons) For millennia we have plagued the children of men by setting at war of children against parents, husbands against wives, race against race, religion against religion, nation against nations. Forty years ago, I even raised up Justice William Blackmun to perform my will in a 7-2 Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade (1973). In a single generation, I resurrected the Doctrine of Molech, which had been dormant since the Dark Ages. I compelled humanity to commit global genocide against humanity. Nevertheless, the children of men have still multiplied upon Earth.
Demon No. 1 (Beelzebub): What can be done to destroy the sons of Adam so that the underworld and Earth can be brought together as thy united kingdom of evil, oh Satan? An empire to rival that of the God of heaven who in ages past cast us out down to Earth and imprisoned us in hell because there was sin found in thee – and in We.
Satan: Who will go to Earth to do my will? Who will go to avenge my evil against God, His Christ and the sons of Adam?
Demon No. 2: I will go! I am the Spirit of Hedonism. I will entangle the sons of Adam into the five “P”s: pleasure, porn, perversity, pedophilia, prostitution.
Satan: Have you ever heard of Hollywood? Next!
Demon No. 3: I will go! I am the Spirit of Evolution. Mankind prides itself on skepticism, naturalism, materialism, progressivism and science. Therefore, I will take a nobody atheist son of a Christian minister, send him on a long voyage to the remote islands of the Galapagos and fill his naive mind with scientific mythology of evolutionary atheism, kill truth and damn the world.
Satan: We tried scientific atheism in 1859 when Charles Darwin published the first edition of his “Origins of Species.” It kept many out of God’s kingdom, but I demand more souls!
