Did the Father Fortea write a TREATY or did he write a TREATSIE? Big difference. A treatise is an extensive writing about a particular topic. a treaty is a negotiated agreement between two or more parties.

shoehorning the concept of Satan -- a Catholic invention

That is a lie.

I don't recall anything about Eastern Orthodoxy and demonism although I think Rasputin was possessed, probably many others.

It's a subject that can make you sick to your stomach. What is so frustrating is that it takes so much power and sometimes many months to get the demons out. From my impression of scripture, Jesus cast them out easily, even the one the disciples couldn't. He did say that kind did not come out except by prayer and fasting.

In the latter case, I believe it was a child or young person who fell on the ground in convulsions which sounds like epilepsy now. Who is to say seizures, at least some, can't be caused by demons?

*** “In a society where you look toward sex, power and ambition, you have no room for God.” ***

Gives new meaning to these verses. you are filled with either the Spirit of God, or the spirit of the Devil.

Mat 12:43
¶ When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

Mat 12:44

Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

Mat 12:45

Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
