I have studied them all. Thales,Socrates,Pythagoros,Plato,Platonis,Darwin,Carl Jung,Helen Blavatsky,Soren Kiekaard,Emanuel Swedenborg,Alice Baily. I call them Satan's angels. These people are responsible for the Theosophical Society. The Theosophical Society is Evil.

If you are dismissing all philosophers as "Satan's angels", then you are showing yourself to be uneducated. All truth is God's truth, whether it comes from a pagan or a saint. The Church Fathers (and St. Paul himself, in Acts 17:28) recognized this. Where the philosophers speak truth, we [Christians] accept it. Where the philosophers go wrong, we reject it. But we don't just write off the whole group, on account of their errors. That would be foolish. There is a great deal we can learn from the philosophers; those who fail to learn from the philosophers will inevitably make major philosophical blunders.

I guess wasn,t specific enough.These people I mentioned did give advice on spirituality and there are people who are greatly influenced by their opinions.
Take Plato for example.
Plato,s God was not triune.
Plato,s God is not omnipotent.He does the best he can with recalcitrant matter Jung Channeled all kinds of spirits. Swedenborg thought Satan did not exist. Some of these peoples idea,s are finding their way into Christianity. Look at Rick Warrens PDL.PDC movement. They use Carl Jungs Psychological Profiling to find their Purpose in life. Emanuel Swedonborg has his own religion called the Swedenborgians. They call themselves a Christian Church. (Ephesians 4:17-19} I declare and solemnly attest in the Lord that you must no longer live as the Pagans do-their minds empty,their understanding darkened.They are estranged from a life in God because of their ignorance and their resistance.
