On a positive note, these titles are available to learn about the enemy though.

I believe that in the Bible, God tells us all we need to know about the enemy. To pick up one of those books would be like learning about Communism by listening to Communist propaganda. That can be quite dangerous.

I had a shortwave radio when I was a kid. Occasionally, I'd tune in Radio Havana, broadcasting in English to the American audience.

It was fascinating to hear their slanted perspective on the world. The trouble was, that they knew exactly what they were doing. And, after about a half hour, thoughts like, "Those people aren't so bad." and, "Why don't we just leave them alone?", started to pop into my head. I'd know then, it was time to turn it off.

The Communists are mere armatures compared to satan. And tuning him out isn't as easy as clicking a switch.

You make a valid point. I agree.

The little prayer I say to myself often, when I question something is,

Lord, don't let me be deceived."
