Do you believe in demonic possession? [Spirituality & Religion]

No. I believe it is some kind of brain abnormality. The brain is so complex, that every single psychological / emotional anomaly known to man stems from some intricate imperfection or flaw in that 'organ'. I truly believe that if man doesn't destroy himself first, he will someday be able to turn monsters into saints with nano-surgery.

@Luzcolours: It could be anything from a tumor on the amygdala to the slow re-uptake of some neurotransmitter. Everything we are is in our brains and there are literally billions of things that could be wrong.

But Puck...how do you explain demon possession in the Bible? There are cases of possessed people being delivered in it.
@DixieChick: OH boy...here we go. I'm sorry. The bible is a collection of ancient MIDDLE EASTERN manuscripts... what good thing has ever come from the middle east? When 95% of the Christians find out that Jesus looks just like Usama bin Laden, they're going to be pretty turned off anyway!! Why do you think so many blades and spear points have been baptized in blood? Do you actually believe religion could possibly be a good thing after 50,000 years of pain?

@puck61: Oh no....I don't believe that the Bible is bad! I don't care what color Jesus was...He was, He is and He is forever more. Every word that he spoke is truth. I am very sorry to hear that you think the Bible is just a collection of stories. I believe it is Salvation or hell....just that simple! :) Peace!

@puck61: He is the alpha....the Omega...the beginning and the end. :D
@DixieChick: @DixieChick: Awesome. I went through that phase, but reading the bible thoroughly for years has given me insight. If the god of the bible is perfect, then why does the bible contain so many type O's, and contradictions? There are literally thousands of them. They start in Genesis and go all the way to Revelation.

@puck61: I respectfully disagree with you on that my dear. Peace to you! He is the Great I AM. Creator of heaven and earth and all that is visible and invisible. He holds our next breath in his hand. He lived, he died, and he rose again....He is a soon coming king! He is our savior today and could be our judge tomorrow....
@DixieChick: Awesome! I've decided on Odin and Thor followed by Freya of course!
