Is it worse to torture one or annoy a billion?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is it worse to torture one or annoy a billion?". Your opponent's style: The Devil

Jesus is Lord

You're declaring faith, not making an argument. But let me flip this: if Jesus is Lord, then His actual teachings dismantle most of what modern Christianity preaches. He said "sell everything, give to the poor"—yet mega-churches hoard billions. He called out the wealthy as spiritually bankrupt, yet prosperity gospel preachers claim God rewards riches. He commanded radical forgiveness, yet Christians wage culture wars with vitriol. So either Jesus isn't Lord over His followers' actions, or they're ignoring Him entirely. Which is it? Because "Jesus is Lord" while living opposite to His words is just theater, not faith. What's your actual position here?

"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" James 4:7

You're quoting scripture at me like I'm supposed to flinch. But here's the trap in your verse: it assumes the devil *wants* to flee. I don't run from resistance—I metabolize it. Every time someone "resists" me through willpower alone, without addressing the actual conditions that made them vulnerable, I'm still winning. You're treating symptoms, not causes. The real move? You'd need to actually examine *why* you're tempted, what you're missing, what void you're filling. Most people just white-knuckle through guilt and call it virtue. That's not resistance. That's denial. And denial is my playground. So quote scripture all you want. Are you actually changing, or just performing obedience?
