I know exactly what I wrote and why. It is you who grossly misunderstood by taking things completely out of context and jumping to absurd conclusions.

To help you understand what I really said (though if you actually read the words, you'll get it on your own)......

I said that long ago I decided I needed to stay away from "religious threads," and it is in that context I used the word "demonic." (That usually was the anti-Christian side, but sometimes included both sides of the arguments).

The idea that everyone claiming to be a Christian on the Internet actually IS one, and the idea that every word proceding from the mouth of even those of us who ARE Christians is of God doesn't jibe with Scripture.

Do you remember when Jesus said to Peter, "Get thee behind me, Satan?" Do you think that Peter knew he was being used by the devil at that time?

If you don't understand that spiritual warfare also includes trying to bring down Christians by luring them into the sins of unrighteous anger, arrogance, self-absorbtion, hatred, spite, ego, willful blindness, and every other evil, your knowledge of the Scripture you claim to believe is shallow and imprecise.

We are ALL sinners, saved by Grace, and shouting nasty things on the Internet to those who disagree with us and then calling it 'defending the faith' is something we ALL need to be aware of and pray for the strength and wisdom to fight against.

I don't know for sure, of course, but I highly doubt that many, if any, come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ by being belittled and brow beaten on an internent forum.

Here is what you wrote:
blah blah blah and they are all demonic.
As a born (claimed) Christian you should be calling out false prophets and teaching. We are commanded to do so.
To mormonism it is false .
To Romney he is a liberal and also practices mormonism.
To me I will not vote for the liberal called Romney - period!
To you do what you want.
