“This is exactly what I have been saying for years, based upon my experience doing exorcisms.”

You have not done any exorcisms. I dont know you, but I dont have to know you to know you havent done any exorcisms.

Demons, possessions, exorcisms, they are all as fake as aliens and those who claim to do the things you do.

I thought the same until I experienced them over and over, many times in thirty-five years.

The demonic’s greatest influence is through their stealth, as they influence people who don’t believe in them.

Are you saying that evil does not exist?

This is not a criticism or judgement of you, although it might sound that way. I say this only to increase understanding.

The logical masculine ego creates a shell and defines reality within itself. It organizes what is real or not real based upon what fits with its ego identity. This is not good or bad, it’s just the way consciousness functions.

When my left brain logical ego first experienced paranormal events, it destroyed me. I thought I was nuts. If it had not been that my wife observed them happening, I would have committed myself.

I was a logical Type “A” personality, a university professor, a CPA, a business executive, and didn’t believe any of this.

I walked out my office door where the event happened and didn’t return for two years. I owned the building, the firm, and had over a dozen professional employees. It turned my world upside down as I could no longer trust my logic until I understood the science supporting what I experienced.

I completed a degree in psychology that was worthless and went on to study neuroscience and psychiatry for twenty years. I believe in evidence based medicine and work with many MD’s on a regular basis.

I just perceive things a bit different that they do. I learn by reconciling my experiences with science.

You can keep your head in the sand and enjoy your ego bubble. That’s ok and I respect that choice. But don’t be surprised if someday your bubble gets burst like mine did and your world is turned upside down.

Somebody very brilliant once said:

“Your science is going to be shown up for what it is, nothing more than a pleasant metaphor usefully extrapolated into the production of toys for healthy children.

That’s what science is good for.

It is not some meta-theory at whose feet every point of view from astrology to acupressure to channeling need be laid to have the hand of science announce thumbs up or thumbs down.”

Once you figure that out the world gets to be a fascinating place—and your real journey of discovery can begin.
