You don’t have to get off on “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” to acknowledge the devil as a genuine malicious being, not a mere figure of speech. Evangelicals would largely agree with Santorum about that. It takes two to dance that tango of course: the devil to offer evil and mankind to accept the evil.

It takes two to dance that tango of course: the devil to offer evil and mankind to accept the evil.

Actually, the devil can cause plenty of evil and affliction without getting anyone's permission. He's not like a vampire that can't enter a house without the occupant's permission.
