Please read the first article in my WP blog: "120 Things That Every Christian Must Believe".
It may have some relevance to this topic, but it is too long to post in this thread

Find All ---> Replace All ---> "Christian" with "Muslim"
Find All ---> Replace All ---> "God" with "Allah"
Find All ---> Replace All ---> "America" with "Palestine"
And it's just as true. I'm utterly confounded every time I hear Christians complaining that America is coming under "Sharia law" because as far as I can tell, that would give them everything they want. |

I've had such negetive expirences with these so called "Christians" that I am extremly distrustful and want to run away screaming when someone announces that they are a Chrisitan.

Religion and spirituality aren't bad things. Unfortunately, the people that don't hear the message properly are the ones that spout it the loudest and most vehemently.
'Religious Fundamentalism is a label used by the world governments and society to make regimented bigotry more socially acceptable.
Fundamentalist adults/people have very obvious traits and anyone will know a fundamentalist adult when listening to one.
You can literally feel it in their presence a heaviness and darkness while in their presence that cannot be ignored
The fact is this; a truly Fundamentalist adult/person has the same symptoms of demonic possession as in:
Lewd behavior as in exposing one's beliefs and imitating spiritual acts with no prior knowledge of these things
Violence, be it self inflicted or towards others who do not beleive as they do
They will verbally excrement on themselves and let loose their oppressive thoughts at any time or place and also deliberately incite controversy as they seem to like having the conflict and scorn of others.
They spit on other beliefs and those that they don't understand
They have animalistic traits like irrational aggression towards those that aren't in their pack
They will accept any idea including disproven "facts" and garbage if it has a smell that attracts them to it
They will scream without end at times, and in a loud howl-like inhuman screaming sound that can shatter anyones nerves overtime
They keep up constant noise vocally or with objects to bring confusion to where ever they are
They punish themselves and others for no reason
They belittle or attempt to subjugate or convert others
Logic really doesn’t affect them
They speak a strange language and they actually can communicate between each other
They are extremely loud, aggressive and increasingly irrational when in a rage
As a minority they can over power a rational majority when having the fits of rage
They invoke the Name of Jesus while ignoring His teachings and they attempt to control others through that invocation
They are selfish, mean spirited, and dominate people
They show no signs of guilt when doing wrong' |
I never accused religion of being bad because of this guy. I accused this guy because he's a f**** for torturing innocent childrens because of his flawed view of religion. |

Autism is a medical label fluke used by the world governments and society to pacify demonic possession.
If this guy ever encountered anything that might remotely have been genuine active demonic possession, he wouldn't have wrote this article.
Autistic kids/people have very obvious traits and anyone will know an autistic child when seeing one.
That's why after working with them for 4 years, I still mistake some for siblings until they freak out over something or one that once didn't stick out until she sat in a corner with her fingers in her ears.
You can literally feel it in their presence a heaviness and darkness while in their presence that cannot be ignored.
Most are perfectly pleasant to be around when they aren't having a meltdown.
The fact is this; a truly Autistic child/person has the same symptoms of demonic possession as in:
Lewd behavior as in exposing one's self and imitating sexual acts with no prior knowledge of these things.
Sexual acts were created to naturally feel good, so not only do they learn masturbatory acts on their own, but it's a self-reinforcing behavior. It's what keeps humans from dying out like the pandas. Autistic kids just have trouble learning the time and place for it.
Violence, be it self inflicted or towards others.
They usually have little or no understanding of what they are doing. There is usually a root cause for the self-injury and the violence is often a dysfunctional attempt to communicate.
They will excrement on themselves and let loose their bladder at any time or place and also play with the waste, they seem to like having the bodily waste on their person.
Just like a 1 or 2 year old, they haven't developed mentally enough for successful potty training. The fecal smearing is just a sensory thing with the texture.
They spit.
See above. It's because mentally they are still like younger toddler and they also like the sensory aspect of it.
They have animalistic traits like sniffing, and licking.
Due to strong senses, and the mouth is one of the areas with the most sensory nerve endings. Many young children do this.
They will eat anything including old food and garbage if it has a smell that attracts them to it.
So will any young child that has not been trained or cannot be trained not to do that.
They will scream without end at times, and in a loud howl-like inhuman screaming sound that can shatter anyone nerves overtime.
The sound they make while screaming may vary by kid and sometimes by incident. It does wear on nerves. Inhuman is a stretch. However, it is caused by not feeling good, their mind being stuck on something distressing, or some sensory issue. Not demonic possession.
They keep up constant noise vocally or with objects to bring confusion to where ever they are.
Vocal noises are not constant as in all day long, but may last hours. It may get annoying but does not spread confusion and they have no idea that it bothers anyone.
They bite themselves and others
It's either due to the sensory issue of it or there is a root problem that if addressed with stop the biting. For one girl I know, she may have to go to the bathroom or may be too hot in her sweatshirt or things like that.
They strike or attempt to choke others
Out of an inability to interact and resolve matters with others in a functional way. I have known some in their teens who can read and write, and it has apparently never occurred to them to hit someone.
Pain really doesn’t affect them.
WTF??? Some are extremely sensitive.
They speak a strange language and they actually can communicate between each other.
Has this guy ever met autistic kids? I hope not!
They are extremely strong when in a rage.
The human body has natural stimulants it can release to cause that.
As children they can over power an adult when having the fits of rage.
See above.
They don't like the Name of Jesus and they will always be put under control by His name.
I've known younger autistic kids that became Christians without pressure from their parents. No exorcism required.
They are selfish, mean spirited, and dominate people.
They don't understand what they are doing.
They show no signs of guilt when doing wrong.
They have not mentally developed to the point of being accountable for their actions.

| I had a thought that some circumstances of "demonic possession" might actually be due in part to auditory triggered seizures. I know light patterns can induce seizures, but can certain melodies? |

My experiences with Aspergers, epilepsy and the churches, led me to read the book "Mad Church Disease".
One of my former preachers ended up on YouTube naked, chasing a masseuse. At least that one wasn't chasing me. With my career and epilepsy, I think Karma met Kafka. Me and the other Gods are in A Midsummer Night's Dream. "Oh What Fools Those Mere Mortals Be!!!"
The words "exorcise" and "exercise", and all the forms and tenses, are easily confused.
As I previously posted, Gargantua and Pantagruel didn't have adventures as dangerously bizarre as my epileptic encounters with the various churches, and all their many lusting leaders. While all witnesses to view my Becker's Nevus, wanted to pet it, my dependable once-a-month seizure clusters, which now lead to frequent secondary tonic-clonics without AEDs, got me a lot of ribbing in adolescence, and in early adulthood, for it being "that time of the month" for poor Tadzio. I still wonder if the social joking with periodic seizures is very common, but one theologian pronounced my occasional Priapic seizures during the clusters as the Father's Curse, and I didn't know what the guy was talking about while in his ranting rave, until a couple decades later when I read the book "The Poisoned Embrace," by Lawrence Osborne, and the written 'scientific account' (anti-Semitic myth) of the male menses, recorded by Thomas de Cantimpre in the thirteenth century. "Calling upon Saint Augustine as his authority, my Minister said......" What a source for both a piercing and novel lack of understanding!!! Then, they blame Puck for their intoxication with their own lust of such powers of epilepsy!!!
With this case of epilepsy, the otherwise self-serving officials, with their own choosen experts, did not try to exorcise it, they tried to exercise it, both actively and passively. When the spirit departed the environs, their tantrums neared Caligula's, with what was left available to challenge the departure.
Tadzio
P.S.: Yes, Yes, and Yes. I do have Demons, I do have the Devils and the Devils' notebooks, and I possess the Possessed.
Various translators always tinker with the Art, and the tinker's dam gives both more ingress and egress.
Speaking the same language doesn't help, as Nabokov's moral art of the aesthete verifies. While epilepsy's ecstatic iurodivyi, but still being the idiot studying the Idiot is a more curious paradox, and playing the Gambler with the Confidence-Man, while being lectured on Job, gives my articulate speaking-in-tongues temptations of engraving Gold Tablets for Uncle GodBucks' immortality program. For sure, it is best to seize on a Fine Persian Rug. And Mammon makes the irreplaceable easily replaced. At least that's what Uncle GodBucks chants in his Dollar Signs: "Lord of Silver, Lord of Gold, Lord for Money, Our Spirits sold, Let the Poor crumble to Dust, In God We Trust." I believe Uncle GodBucks is mistaken, but this Age of Materialism is contrary to my beliefs, like most every piece of USA currency declares.
My hematoma stopped me near dead in the middle of Anthony Briggs' new translation of War & Peace, and made the Pevear & Volokhonsky translation a mere future enticement. It is still a shock that the original Anna Karenina is so Un-American past the first page, but the first page is usually considered course-completion. I also studied Tolstoy's What Is Art in philosophy classes, along with various biographies, but don't tell our friend, or Tolstoy will be placed with iurodivyi neighbourhooded Dostoevsky, despite everyone's neurology of Aspergers concerns.
I better shut-up with my now epileptic inner kingdom blatherings, or I'll never be heard from again!!! LOL. |

If I'm to be accused of being a demon can I at least choose what demon I am?
Seriously, this is absurd, and yet another reason that people assume that Christians are crazy even though its the extremists that give us a bad name.Really, we're not all like that. And I'm despite being autistic, entirely comfortable with going to church... maybe I'm a church going demon somehow? |
