We fully agree THEY do not get a free pass and will be held accountable. The question now arises when do the scales of Justice balance out? We do not always see Justice work, but we must KNOW that Justice is always Working.
I also never said they are to get a free pass. The devil does not get a free pass either. He is just permitted to deceive, trick and coerce us breathing self-aware souls THROUGH OUR FREE WILL to tempt bolster our EGOs as part of the duality planet Earth offers. It is our job to say to Satan: Go away, I ONLY do the will of my Father. The point of this "human exercise" is to remove the dross from the gold.
