I judge that your allegations are false and that you probably know they are false.
.
I have witnessed all of the idolatry that I listed, thus I know that it is true.
.
I am not convinced he knows them to be false. Some are incapable of believing anything other than what they want to believe. Those are the ones most in need of our forgiveness and prayers.
The only harm they can do is to entice us into the sin of anger and vengeance. The truly amazing thing is that whatever the mischief the devil is up to, regardless of who he has co-opted, if handled properly only serves to increase the glory to God.
"You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust." - Matthew 5:43-45
