• Allen A. Dale : We are gathered here this evening, brothers and sisters, to explore the devious paths of that demon: sin. Sin can transport you to the upper most heights of fame and fortune and plunge you to the deepest depths of degradation, demoralization and depravation. Sin promises many prizes, appears in many disguises, and fights like hell before it demises. So we are met this evening in this hallowed hall, so you may recognize sin's henchmen when they call. And our subject for tonight is the most evil of them all.
