Well; if we assume that demons really do exist; then there are some
interesting facts that make them relevant to our own day and age.

1• They know how to tamper with the human nervous system to cause
seizures.

2• They know how to tamper with the human body to cause hemorrhaging.

3• They know how to tamper with the human mind to cause mental illness.

4• They have no substance; hence they cannot be detected by standard lab
equipment like X-ray, Cat Scan, fluoroscope, ultra sound, or MRI.

5• They cannot be detected by any of the five senses of touch, taste,
hearing, sight, and smell.

6• They are able to make some people genuinely clairvoyant

7• They cannot be kept out by locked doors nor high walls because they can
pass thru solid objects just as easily as neutrinos pass thru your hand unimpeded.

8• They are covertly influential in people's thinking.

9• They are organized.

Where are they? Everywhere on land, in the sea, in the air, and out in space
aboard the international space station.

I really think that if we could see the number of evil shadow creatures all
around us every night and every day of our lives, we would go mad with
terror; and it does no good to complain about the so-called right to privacy.
I think it goes without saying that Machiavellian personalities like the demons
care next to nothing about human sensibilities.

We can see many demons in the New Testament. Sometimes even many of them in one human. Wherever Jesus or his discplices went, demons upon demons.

In our life (Europe) - none. Nobody ever heard of any. Their existence went to fairy tale category. Yes, some people claim it, but you know, some people even claim to be abducted by people from another galaxy. The fact is that demons are not visible in our daily, common life like they were before.

I can think about these plausible solutions:
a) they are gone
- the work of Christ, the spread of Christianity, monotheism pushed them out of Christian and post-Christian world

b) they went into hide
- they do not want to be indentified and thrown out by Christians, so they try to "behave" or mask themeselves as mental illness

c) they need some special conditions to exist in
- pagan rituals, spiritism, something that may exist rather in other parts of the world than in Europe
- maybe they even need a faith in them to have any power?

d) they are dying in time
- well, this one is weird, because they are spirits, but still its a possibility that they somehow decompose without a body

e) they are still the same and active as before, but humanity got too high in numbers
- if there is like lets say million of demons, they are very visible when there is 100 million population of people in the world, but can be quite unnoticable when there is 8 billion of people

Any better ideas?
They couldn't see them in the new testament either. It was just as it is today. They were casting them out,'. Some are in people and you don't see them manifest. The ones that do go into manifest mode is called mental illness now. There is no one casting out demons anymore,
like they are suppose to be. That is another way that the devil has deceived us. People changed drastically since new testament time, in order to make us think there are no demons. There is a big deception going on.

Since they were booted from paradise, they have had ample time to study humans from their mental state to their functioning bodies. In my opinion, one of the clearest demonic infestation is homosexuality, and this new trend of changing genders. Without a doubt, mental illness is real. But some times, it clearly is demonic possession.

It definitely appears with how society believes science like it is the infallible truth, many diagnosis go undetected that actually relate to demonic possession. Demons are well aware of this and go undetected in actual mental institutions. When someone in society screams, "demons are attacking me," science and medical doctors immediately dope them up and shut them up.

But the closer we get to the return of Christ, the more open demonic activity will be. After all, they understand scripture better than many so-called believers of God!! And, they know they are running out of time...

They are not supposed to be visible, but they are very active daily.

Every time you read about an insane or heinous crime committed (including pedophilia, human trafficking, sex slavery, etc. -- and that happens every day), just remember that demons may be behind it. All Radical Islamist terrorists are more than likely possessed by demons.

The demented ayotallahs and mullahs of Iran are totally in the control of Satan and his demons. The totalitarian regimes of this world are no doubt under the control of evil spirits. And let's not forget mad Maxine Waters and her daily rants.

I believe demons are still on earth and are still influencing and leading people to destruction... There are a lot of people today who are identified as having mental issues who may indeed actually be under the influence or are possessed by demons.. I believe that a demon will not openly identify themselves unless they are forced to do so by a Christian who has the gift for dealing with demons..

deception can also happen because we fail to read carefully and "wait a minute, I think I can give a more important more helpful response" ...

Let me put this theory out there ... I'm going to Reader's Digest this, because I'm going to assume some concepts that are themselves their own thread.

satan went back and forth between this world and and God's eternity. Job is an example, I believe there are others but for brevity let's just assume that satan has/had access to both the eternal, and from there any point in time.

And there are arguments to be made that those angels who 'fell' with satan had that same access, able to, from the eternal, access any point in time and go to and fro.

Now, again, this is it's own thread, but understanding that access to any point in time is key to the next step. Imagine a wheel, the hub is eternity and time is the rim. That means God in eternity/the hub can reach out to any point on the rim/timeline, like inserting a spoke. So He puts a spoke to the top of the rim, then one to the bottom. One to the left, and one to the right. One kitty corner this way, one ktty corner another way. So when we're talking of access to time from eternity, we're understanding that that access is random and not constrained to our chronology. Meaning, a demon can move from July 1 2018 into the eternal, and being in the hub can then re-enter time July 28 2018. Or November 16 1843.

may we be thankful that Satan has to ask God's permission
and, may we also be thankful that God have declined many of Satan's crazy and dangerous request
and may we meditate this as a way to meditate upon God's love, especially to help ease a lot of unnecessary worries

Spirituality has no influence on life of most of people. There are some traditional RCC families.

There is like 5% of catholics
1% of protestants

and the rest is nonreligious. They may believe that there is God or "something", but their life is not changed by it.
