This thought was triggered by simply hearing the first measures of Samuel Barber's Agnus Dei for chorus and remembering it was played at Roosevelt's funeral. Ah, the pathos, the history, the lives, the sufferings, the triumphs, the shared life of it all! The imprisoned, tortured, genocided humanity, oh, don't mention that too much, unless you are talking about Nazis, the designated bad guys in the play.
This is seeing providence, which needs objective knowledge. The question why is the Satanic Kingdom so active and central? I.e. why in God's Providence does He want it so? Because we are living in the fall of mankind, and we need to experience this evil and emptiness? Because it calls out God's elect? Because it provides trial to our faith? All of the above?
But it is all the above I've written that makes some conclude we are watching a movie. People sense it. Some do. The awakening ones do.
