The angel was looking into the future, when the devil arrived.
"Don't look much beyond the horizon" the devil told the angel.
"Why so?" the angel asked.
"Because you can't see anything."
"But at the school where we are trained to be angels, we were always taught to look into the future as the meaning of our actions is seldom in the past."
"And the purpose of our actions is seldom in the future."
"Was it taught to you in your training to be a devil?"
"Nay, all of us are trained in the same school. You believe and adhere to what is taught and we don't."
"But I too sometimes doubt and deny what is taught. And I have observed that you adhere to some of those principles, which my intuition denies."
"Maybe then in those moments, you are the devil and I, the angel!!"
