  1. I also recall C.S. Lewis quoting Luther in The Screwtape Letters: "The best way to drive out the devil...is to jeer and flout him."

    1. BTW:

      "Doctor Luther said that when he couldn’t get rid of the devil with Holy Scripture and serious language, he had often expelled him by tart remarks and crazy jokes. And when he [the devil] tried to burden his [Luther’s] conscience, he would often tell him, 'Devil, I’ve been doing it in my pants, have you smelled it and added this to your list of all my sins?' Again, he told him, 'My dear Devil, should the Blood of Christ shed for my sins not have been enough, please do pray to God for me.' ... For he is a proud spirit, and cannot bear scorn."
