What about D&C 121?  The powers of heaven can only be operated upon 
principles of righteousness and when men attempt to wield them by any 
other means, "amen to the priesthood of that man."  Satan may have some 
priesthood, but it is certainly not the one we aspire to.

I would disagree with that.  How does the enemy do what he does?  I 
can't prove
it but it makes sense to me that the priesthood is a tool, and if you 
know
how to use that tool, it doesn't matter who wields it or what their 
intentions
are.  I've seen too much to think anything else, and no one has come 
up with
an explanation that satisfies me.
