But the comment posed was thus: "Never heard of God giving people special powers to do evil."

God never gave powers to Lucifer to do evil; he became evil because of his pride and, thereafter, abused his powers and influence to corrupt not only himself, but other beings.

My comment, which you twisted, had to do with the terrorists believing they have been elected by God to murder...which directly related to the original comment of God giving His powers to others to do evil.

Correction. God gave the angel Lucifer his powers. Lucifer used these powers to do evil. Ergo the powers that God gave Lucifer may have been intended for good purposes, but nonetheless they were also powers that could be used to do evil, as Lucifer has demonstrated.
