Sanity Check

Its just a basic refresher on 1. Demons hate God 2. God made people, nature and the world 3. Demons hate people, nature and the world because God made those things 4. Therefore demonic influence is strong in those who wish to destroy people, nature and the world 5. Self destructive tendencies are also evident in this. But I probably shouldn't try to define things, its supposed to be left to the reader to meditate on things and discover on their own. The reason I correlate pleasure with self harm is due to the concept demons would take pleasure in a person who is one of God's creations, harming themselves. Maybe it doesn't resemble sexual gratification but perhaps some do get positive feelings out of it. And where do those positive feels come from? Just talking to randoms who cut or self harm. Without invoking religion and without them even knowing I'm a christian. They'll come out and say they feel better after doing it. Maybe the pieces fit. I don't even know what my role in any of this should be if I even have a role. Tend to think that this type of thing is well above my pay grade. I just always hope and pray both people and myself might learn to make better choices.

Time will tell. But I think you're missing the point. It is the self destructive tendencies that matter most. Who says they need or even want an exorcism? And who says there is anyone on planet earth with the power to cast out demons in 2025? There might be no one with that kind of ability.

Looks like you copied and pasted rather than quoting & so it did not register & so I did not see it. "S & M clubs." You appear to be contending self harm and self destructive tendencies are not symptoms of demonic possession. Demons are like puppies that only wanted a hug. Heh.

BTW @Nungali If you find this topic interesting can you reply to the above. I thought I was sharing fossil relics that were old news in this thread. Thought everyone knew this old stuff already. Did not cross my mind this might be controversial.

Fyodor Dostoevsky did a decent job explaining it. Proverbs in the bible did it even better.

Have you ever heard of pigs being used in medical experiments due to their biology being similar to humans? The Apostles could do that. This story has a different meaning. And the LORD God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever. Genesis 3:22 (Pigs not knowing good / evil therefore - lower resistance to demonic influence than ppl) The pigs asked for _______? Perhaps their culture is demonically influenced.

There are also decades of demonically possessed hollywood characters engaging in self harm and various forms of self mutilation. Why does the above have pins sticking out of his head? Maybe demons possessing him give him pleasure in exchange for self destructive, self harming, tendencies?

I talked to some who cut themselves, they said they feel better after self harming. That may be the consensus which is why many are repeat offenders. I always thought there might be a demon or entity influencing them as self harm providing relief or acting as a mood enhancer doesn't seem like a normal thing. Did you read the bible verse? The demons had possessed two men. Jesus cast them out into a herd of swine who ran off a cliff and died. This is meant to illustrate demonic possession resulting in self destructive / suicidal behavior patterns. Pigs being less resistant to demonic influence means they instantly self destruct. People having a higher tolerance might make the process take longer, but the end result could be the same. There is a long list of behavior patterns that are self destructive. Cutting is one. There are many other patterns which not many realize. It isn't obvious but there are biblical verses that reinforce all of this.

I think everyone has seen these memes. But has anyone wondered why people engage in self harm? What makes a process of self harm pleasurable for people? ... Having wandered far and wide, there were a few I came across who cut themselves. Some were beautiful women. Others talented and smart. I had the impression demons or entities were negatively influencing people. Like the swine in the bible who were possessed. Giving pleasure in exchange for self harm.

Epigenetics.

104 year old woman: "Dr Pepper is good it has sugar in it." 104 year old woman: "Two doctors have told me if I drink it I'll die." 104 year old woman: "But they died first."
