Dear oug,

There are neither demons nor angels. Grow up. an atheist is not a ravening wolf but merely someone who does not accept fairy tales. Maybe some day you will grow up.

OneunderGod,

Yes, there must be daemons, Richard Baxter (1691) notes that so many incubi had "sexual congress with women" (Sagan) that, "'tis impudence to deny it". Moreover, these cunny incubi whom at night "comingled" with women, often chose nuns, and anstonishingly the incubus took on the appearance of the priest-confessor! Fancy that!

But don't blame stormy wather on the incubi and sccubi, witches are responsible for storms (Cacaubon, 1668).

p.s. Daemon in Greek means knowledge (which can be used to deceive), not horrific appearance as typically portrayed.

So *dAVId* A hypothetical. Imagine yr in bed. U've been on holiday and with yr wife all week and she is tired, cranky and not in the mood.

U r in the mood. Got the proverbial itch so to speak
AND
U start to fantasize about hot babes (or whatever turns u on) generally.
Old flames ebb out of yr sub conscious and merge in producing some really nice feelings & memories

AND

well, thinking about wifey is just a downer at this point so u stay with the fantasies

AND well, wakey, wakey, hands on snakey ..

Now, just to clarify, are u saying that yr ok with this kind of self expression and don't find it an act of being unfaithful to yr misses?

Or something else perhaps?

david f, said, "There is no archaeological evidence of the tumbling walls of Jericho". WRONG!

Jericho is built on a earthquake fault line, as I have seen discussed recently on ABC TV.

For those wishing to define God by spatial concepts I am afraid they have failed - they have no concept of the spiritual. Please define love or forgiveness as an entity. We can describe its chemistry as affecting the human mind and the responses to it given. But it is not of itself physical, yet both have reality.

ok using logic it is easy to discount'demons'
but if you believe in the after life define what you believe

ie only good get born again[into spirit?
give me that god LOVED all living their lives to live

that god LOVES the repentant sinner
[re the long lost son that squandered his inheritance]

ok lets work on explaining that one
to 'give'his estate [or half of it]the father owning it thus lived on the mercies of his son

for the other would have demaded his[fair is fair]
one squander his[then realises his father treated his worker better than his master worked him[the sqanderor]who realises he would rather serve his dad as servant[cause he is fair]

thing is his father welcomes his long lost son
but not to his own farm
his fayher is as bonded as his brother shall be

he ordered a fatted calf killed for the feast[but the father no longer owned it]

but im drifting away from the point
point is god loves a repentant sinner
thus sinners too will be born again

no one is in hell for eternity[ok hell is timeless] but it is reported no satan dwell ]s or rules there
thus satan has earned his repentance[or remains in this HIS realm]

either way[HEell and HEaven] are where our true spirit is revealed
the suns of light [good] god]
and those in the cold dark hell

we have seen how a face changes in anger/fear[and shines with love/hope etc

our spirits too have clear expression[we have seen those carmiclly physiclly looking like mutants ,in this life [how much more their spiritually naked form is beyond my needing to know, for now]

but see that our spirits arise intact
that neither injury or plastic surgery trancends us in death
our rejected imperfections are perfectly revealed in thec light [as i is done in the darkness]
we arnt just talking about looks[its a smell, sight and sound thing these heavens AND THESE HELLS

jesus revealed our fathers HOUSE [has many rooms[heaven amnd hell are just opposite wings of the fathers manson

continued

Dear Steven,
I assume you are talking about the maker of heaven and earth. If I assume wrong please forgive me.
The first thing is God is good. second he is light. third he is Spirit. fourth he is positive with no shadow or turning he never changes. Fifth he is supreme. sixth God is Love and Life
The god most people have described is the god of this earth,
an imposter who Adam chose above his heavenly father.
Satin the god of this system is bad. he is dark but presents himself as am angel of iight. third he is a spirit [small s}. fourth he is negative and always changing. He is not supreme but a created being. not omnipresent but limited to one place at one time. He is found around death.
Man is created in the image of God for the power of life and death is in our tongue .We will meet God after death and the words of our mouth will justify or condenm us. If You can't get a picture from this try speaking words of encouragment, then words of critism and observe the different actions they cause. Happy hunting God Bless
