Would you consider demon possession to be witchcraft? If not why not? The purpose of witchcraft is power or control over another person and there are plenty of documented cases of these -- and they are people who became possessed by dabbling in the black arts. While trying to call forth the world of the dead to give them power to cast a spell on others or secure parapsychological powers, they themselves became possessed by a disembodied spirit. That is witchcraft. Witchcraft is also the power to beguile, deceive, and persuade others to believe a lie -- to take control of another person's mind --- seen any of that lately.

Re: #103 Of course you're correct. But discussing Scripture, the efficacy of witchcraft or the existence of the supernatural with an atheist/materialist is pretty much pointless.

Please cite any modern, analytical documents that prove someone was possessed by a demon. Just because something is not explainable, does not prove demonic possession. Whenever I see a beautiful woman, especially if partially clotehed, I become beguiled, smitten, smote, deceived, and easily persuaded. Have I been possessed?

No, that's called conning people. Don't give manipulative dirtbags more credit than they deserve. Unless you're actually going to say that Madison Avenue is a den of wizards and covens, in which case you're beyond hope.
