You obviously haven't studied much about Christianity. Don't mock it if you don't understand it.

Believe whichever fairy tale helps you sleep at night. It is a function of complete and total chance that you were born a Christian in America and not in Hyderabad worshipping Vishnu. It's all nonsense.

You too are doing nothing but putting down on what you do not understand.

If anyone is really interested in this subject matter, I suggest reading Hostage to the Devil. Pretty crazy book.

Sam Harris is just that guy though. Search him on YouTube. Also that speech had some GREAT video editing and music. One of my favs.

Here's another from him. Makes you really want to go outside and seize the day

Believing fairy tales could be someone who believes the universe, life sustaining planets, and amino acids for creating life, magically appeared from thin air.

woman from child protective services and a nurse witnessed the kid walk up the wall backwards really has me thinking.


Let me make this clear [tongue-in-cheek], there is no such thing as demons, or evil for that matter. In this enlightened relativist age there are only differences of opinion. There is no wrong.....there is no right. Although the liberal progressives would argue their position is the only right one, and we [collectively] must be tolerant of other opinions or lifestyle, as long as the opinion or lifestyle is in line with what they accept. Govenor Andrew Cuomo [devout Catholic] of New York articulated the liberal progressive mindset perfectly recently, when he told the 'conservatives' they were not welcome in the great State of New York. In other words...take your taxes, and job creation and leave. Governor Cuomo [devout Catholic] said the good people of NY will not tolerate the pro-life, pro-traditional family, pro-gun, pro-America crowd. You know the Guns and Bible folks.

But I digress. There is neurosis, and psychosis. [The man giving the SOTU speech tonight appears to be afflicted with many of these mental conditions.] There are cases of delusion brought on by the use of drugs, including prolonged use of the 'weed'. There may even be complusive-obsessive disorder, manic depression and bipolar disorder. But demons or this thing called 'sin'.....ridiculous. So calm down folks, let's all gather around the television for the SOTU speech and listen as the 'Anointed One' Barack Hussein Obama leads us through the desert and into the 'promised land'.

"E Pluribus Obamus"



What a mess!

Great story. The problem with people has always been that if we don't see it or witness it ourselves, it can't be true. Simple minds, simple solutions. Demons are real, souls stuck here in their afterlife are real. Quit being little ()-ies telling yourself over and over that it's not real, and just face the facts. We have over thousands of stories and testimonies that all prove the fact that they both do in fact exist.

The same can be said of mermaids and unicorns. Testimonials don't count for shite.

I don't want to get all reddit-douchebag-neckbeard on you, but that isn't how scientific inquiry works.

"An exorcist tells his story"
Written by a catholic priest who does exorcisms. Interesting if you find this demon stuff intriguing.

Religion has nothing to so with science and science has nothing to do with religion. We're not in the medieval period anymore.

Speaking of that story about the doll in the beginning of the Conjuring was creepy as balls.

I believe it could happen. Did it happen? Only a handful of people know. The priest and the mother seem believable. Can an evil spirit overtake a body/soul of a living being? Yes, no doubt about that. Look at some people on meth or bath salts. It's like opening up a portal to hell. It's real.
