The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he doesn't exist?
It's a quote from French poet Charles Pierre Baudelaire.It has to do with ontological arguments. In Christianity, God is said to be omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and omnibenevolent (all good). But how could a being such as this exist if there are disasters and evils in the world? A purely good being that knows all and has the power to stop evil would not allow them. Ergo the devil must exist to explain evil acts. Without the devil, you can't have God.So by convincing the world that he didn't exist he convinces the world that God doesn't exist.
Tenacious D Tribute?
Tribute is a song that was written by Tenacious D about the ''greatest song in the world'' that they apparently played when a beast told them he would eat their souls if they didn't. But Tribute is just a tribute to they greatest song in the world because as is mentioned in the song, they can't remember how the song went. The ''greatest song in the world'' though, is related to the song played in the movie in the faceoff against the devil at the end.
