The Devil in it All
I must confess that hadit418 is the name and address of the Devil--if you happen to believe in the Devil, which I sort of do--some things can only be explained by the existence of such a Person. Iblis was asked to bow to man at the creation, but he said "No. Man is made of earth and I am made of fire--I am better than he is" So Allah cursed him, and since that time he has been the sworn enemy of mankind--therefore to worship him or his works and ways is very foolish indeed, but it is not possible to avoid entirely, despite the optimism of the Catholic ceremony of baptism. The Devil, Shaitan, simply gets into things--Crowley restored the Barbarous Names almost entirely as a hymn to Shaitan, for that is the position of people like musicians and poets, who are usually in the Devil's Party. This source says that the Devil is the Sun in the South, when it manifests deadly, killing heat, whereas Jesus is the Sun in the North.
