10 Common Things People Believed were Invented by the Devil
A man ... wants to give his wife ... the interest in a little homestead where her sister lives. How wicked to have found fault with it. How petty to have found fault with it. (Hosea Knowlton in his closing argument.)

Re: 10 Common Things People Believed were Invented by the Devil
Well, Constantine, I must say that none of the 10 items really surprised me, especially after I read the explanation given for them. However, the dice took me back to my childhood, and what my parents taught my siblings and me to believe. We were not allowed to play cards with a regular deck of playing cards, because they lead to gambling. I was in my mid-twenties before I held a deck of regular playing cards in my hands!
