      In our last Workout Session, as part of our on-going effort to map out Satan’s Kingdom, we began surveying the Landscapes of the Terrestrial or Earthly Division of his realm.  Given the amount of territory to be covered in this exercise, it will no doubt prove to be one of the most strenuous ones we have undertaken to date; so strenuous, in fact, that it must be spread it out over the course of four sessions, with… Session 1—Covering the Political and Financial Landscape of Satan’s Kingdom; Session 2—Covering the Educational Aspect of Satan’s Cultural Landscape; Session 3—Covering the Media Aspect of Satan’s Cultural Landscape; and, Session 4—Covering the…
