Are there any actual documented cases of possession that couldn't be explained away as say a psychological disorder? And if there has been in your opinion, What would make a person vulnerable to being possessed? I would like some christians to weigh in on this. Personally i'm an agnostic but i do find the subject interesting.

As an Agnostic you may prefer to experience the possession once, rather than wasting time collecting the opinions of it. Do you want me to try helping you in this direction? It may involve some costs though.

I'm assuming you are talking about demonic possession?

Nothing of the kind! I did not say "involves charges", I said "involves costs". I can provide a proper witch and appropriate conditions for possession to take place (if she agrees of course, as she is still pissed off with me since last time) - but I am not prepared to make expenses on their behalf! I am a hard-working lazy person, and I am not ready for such sacrifice.

I cannot elaborate on this part without risking being banned for pornographic details. I can only say that our relationships started about 6 years ago with me becoming possessed with her, but soon we became a sorta friends (if the witches can have friends of course). I am talking a proper voodoo thing in original tribal sense, not just some modern European wiccan joke. She can become a bird or a small animal and spy on people.

Bird or small animal, uhmm, wow, okay then, wasn't expecting that. Well, she certainly sounds like someone you wouldn't want pissed at you. I'm glad you came out of it okay.

She does not talk to me now because I managed to persuade her to show what possession is to another guy, who as a result borrowed $400 from her and disappeared from our sights. Maybe he is still possessed, hiding somewhere, do not know :)

I think so too. History Channel had a thing about exorcisms and it called exorcism a form of radical therapy, and that's about what I think it's all about. They are convinced they have a demon, get an exorcism, they are convinced it's gone, therefore it no longer exists, but it was all a mental product to begin with.

Interesting. Well like i said i tend to be more of a skeptic when it comes to religion as a whole. But if indeed god and anfgels do exist, I'm sure demons would exist as well. But even the catholic church dismesses most cases of possession as psychological disorders. And nine times out of ten that's what it ends up being and the person is treated with strong meds and therapy.

The exorcism of Emily Rose is a classic case of what MIGHT be a psychological case that looks like possession.

How do you know this? Did God tell you?

If God would allow murder, rape, war and famine to exist, why is it so hard to believe that he would allow demons to exist?
