Psalm 35:20

Copyright Ó 2015 J. Neely
Psalm 35:20

20 For they speak [dabar] not peace [shalowm]: but they devise [chashab] deceitful [mirmah] matters [dabar] against them that are quiet [ragea`] in the land ['erets].   KJV-Interlinear

20 For they do not speak peace, but against those who are quiet in the land they devise words of deceit.   ESV

Those who defy Christianity, do not seek to promote something that is better. They seek to promote deceit, contentiousness, debate.

They are divisive and argumentative.  They are inordinately competitive, seeking only to put-down, for the purpose of demoralizing or promoting hate.

They seek only to advance themselves, at the expense of others, at any cost.

They are selfish and self-centered.

Rejection of truth, amounts to nothing more than the promotion of evil.
