And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not. He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming: And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. - Mark 9: 17-25

Pharmaceuticals serve to perpetuate symptoms of schizophrenia.
"Pharmakon" means "poison" or "potion" in ancient Greek.
"Pharmakos" is the ritualistic sacrifice by the "Pharmakoi" (sorcerers/pharmacists) of human victims to demonic forces.
Ask yourselves: which group of people run the pharmaceutical industry today? Who are the psychiatrists pushing these drugs on us? Who are the doctors, the hospital administrators, the law-makers?

Say, that didn't happen to take place on a military base did it? *shrugs shoulder* Maybe not.
I do think that demonic posession is real though.

Think about what you're implying here. I'll play the god game for a minute. So, what's the most powerful entity that exists. That would be god. Okay, what's the second most powerful entity? That would be Satan.
So, these two supernatural beings can slip into this realm any old time they want.
What does god do when he's here? He helps find lost kittens and gets total strangers to shake hands in church.
What does satan do? He inhabits the minds and bodies of people of no significance - never a president or oil tycoon or someone with major influences in the banking industry.
What we have here is either two supernatural entities that don't exist, or two of the DUMBEST supernatural entities that aren't worth loving or fearing.

A lot of the people that are of significance in this system are Freemasons, which Albert Pike says is the practice of "the craft", a nicer way of saying witchcraft, which always involves drugs. To put it bluntly, they are all satanists, which explains why they were so terribly concerned about how we view Jesus, a man that died ages ago, that they have to come out with films like Zeitgeist that came right out attacking Christianity and the deity of Jesus Christ. So who are you to say that these demonic entities don't have influence over those in charge? They don't have to be kicking and screaming every five minutes to be under demonic influence.

So these kickers n' screamers of no worldly value - the devil's just killing time because he's bored?

As I and others have pointed out, drugs opens you up to these entities, which is why its heavily used in occultism, so I would reckon that these "kickers n' screamers" as you call them has a lot to do with that, as they are drugged out of their minds.edit on 28-11-2012 by BlackManINC because: (no reason given)edit on 28-11-2012 by BlackManINC because: (no reason given)

I think I read that in the bible. Something like: And the devil entered he who is hopped up on qualudes.
Where in the world (or the bible) did anyone come up with the idea that drugs induce demons????
THE BOTTOMLESS PIT
The "BOTTOMLESS PIT" is not Hell, or Hades, the place of abode of the "Spirits" of wicked men and women until the resurrection of the "Wicked Dead." See the Chart of "The Underworld." Neither is it "Tartarus" the "Prison House" of the "Fallen Angels" (Jude 6-7), nor the "Lake of Fire," the "Final Hell" (Gehenna), Matt. 25:41, but it is the place of confinement of the DEMONS, who are not Satan's Angels but a class of "disembodied Spirits," supposed by many to be the "disembodied spirits" of the inhabitants of the Pre-Adamite Earth, who, as they have liberty and opportunity, as in the days of Christ, try to re-embody themselves again in human bodies. They are wicked, unclean, vicious, and have power to derange both mind and body. Matt. 12:22; 15:22. Luke 4:35; 8:26-36; 9:42. They are the "Familiar Spirits" of the Old Testament and the "Seducing Spirits" of which Paul warned Timothy. I. Tim. 4:1. They wander about in desolate places..............
The LOCUSTS that John saw come out of the "Bottomless Pit" were a kind of "INFERNAL CHERUBIM." That is, they were a combination of the HORSE, the MAN, the WOMAN, the LION, and the SCORPION, and the sound of their wings in flying was as the "sound of chariots of many horses running to battle." Their size is not given, but they were doubtless much larger than ordinary locusts, but they were not like them, for ordinary locusts feed on vegetation, but these locusts were forbidden to hurt the grass, or the trees, or any green thing, but were to afflict ONLY MEN, and they had human intelligence, for they afflicted only those men who had not the "SEAL OF GOD" in their foreheads. These men they were not permitted to kill, but only torment, and that for only a limited period--FIVE MONTHS, the time limit of ordinary locusts, which is from May to September. The length of time is mentioned twice, and the character of the torment was like that which follows the STING OF A SCORPION, which causes excruciating pain that often causes the afflicted person to desire to die. So fearfully excruciating will be the anguish of those who shall be tormented by these "SCORPION LOCUSTS" that they will "seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, but death shall flee from them," the inference being that the LOCUST or DEMON controlling them shall have power to prevent their death..............
These "SCORPION LOCUSTS" have a King, which ordinary locusts have not. Prov. 30:27. This King's name in the Hebrew is "ABADDON," but in the Greek is "APOLLYON." Now Satan is no where in the Scriptures called by either of these names, so Satan cannot be the King of the Demons, for their King is the King of the "Bottomless Pit," to which he is confined, while Satan and his angels are at liberty and roam the Heavenlies. The meaning then of this scourge of "SCORPION LOCUSTS" seems to be, that an Angel, the custodian of the "Pit," will open the "Bottomless Pit," and liberate a vast multitude of Demons who shall enter into and take possession of the bodies of men, and so torment them that they shall desire to die and shall not be able.
Those will be awful days in which to live, and especially so for those who have the "MARK OF THE BEAST," who will be the special mark of those "SCORPION LOCUSTS." They will be invisible to the natural eye, being "SPIRIT BEINGS," but their presence will be known by the suffering they inflict, which will be unavoidable because of their invisibility, and the inability to provide any material means as screens, to protect one's person from their attack. This invasion of "Scorpion Locusts" will last for 5 months and may well be called a "WOE," but it will be comparatively trifling in comparison with the two "WOES" that are to follow, that of the "Plague of Infernal Cavalry," and the "Vial Judgments," which are included under the "Third Woe."

Well, one thing is certain. Even if you leave Christianity you will probably still be attacked, which means that this spiritual way going on is a whole lot more than which religion you choose to practice...
If demons attacked because Christianity was the truth, then people who leave Christianity shouldn't be attacked anymore since they already lost salvation so it will be in their interests to just stay attacking Christians, but that is NOT the case!
"Zombies" and Sinkholes are popping up more and more in the world and our collective consciousness in general. Could it be, that the "bottomless pit" has opened?
