helen,
Hi.
The problem really arises when the folks that put out "information" that upsets others and then come behind themselves with some putative solution to the matter they have 'invented' (a solution that usually means "buy this" or 'vote for me' or vote for this' or 'don't do that'). An example perhaps closer to home here at the Cafe would be those who say that Reiki is the "devil's" work and anyone doing Reiki will go to hell (or similar sort of very provocative nonsense).
Of course, humans are more than capable of creating their own devilry (and maybe making life hellish for others). We don't need any mythical satans to generate evil. We do quite well enough ourselves.
cheers,
