@FMF
I didn't set up a "opinions different from mine are demonic" link.
I set up a constructive talk in the realm of Spirituality about deliverance from activity by someone who has experience in the realm helping people. And it could apply to ANYONE, including myself, as Christians are effected in the spiritual warfare with the demonic.
Now if you took it super personal like YOU are the ONLY reason I post ANYTHING, that's your problem.

@sonship saidBack to the topic of this thread, though:

There are "medical doctors and psychologists" among the membership of the worldwide Scientology movement.
Is that evidence that Scientologists are not in a kind of cult?

Alleged "Cult" Physicians Q&A" is self descriptive.
It doesn't mean any group with physicians cannot be called a cult.
That should be obvious.
Was there something profound about this question I was suppose to notice?

I don't think "demons" explain or cause anything, except in the metaphorical sense. You actually believe that "demons" exist, while I do not.
I know that.
Nevertheless, many other people concur that there exists evil spiritual activity.
I don't think you recognize spiritual activity at all except what I would call psychological in the mind and soul of people. On another thread you indicated that soul and spirit were pretty much synonymous terms in your mind.
So I think there are two extremes:
On one side the extreme of over preoccupation with evil spirits.
And on the opposite extreme denying spiritual evil completely.
The Bible speaks of familiar spirits and demons and unclean spirits.
But it does not so on every page.
The growing Christians will realize that sometimes she or he should not take ownership to some of the things that fly through their minds. The older generation of believers had a saying "You can't stop a bird from flying over your head. But you can stop it from making a nest in your hair."
The Christian recognizes spiritual activity of an opposition party nature - demonic. And he learns to close the door to their influence.

@sonship saidWhat you call "negative thinking" is presumably dissent and disagreement and people pushing back at your assertions and assumptions on account of having different beliefs from you. And here you are on a message board, attributing this "negative thinking" to "demons". Do you think that constitutes an 'argument'? For whose consumption is it?

@fmf saidNo, the title of the video included that phrase "negative thinking". Its scope is not just

disagreeable posts written by you. Come on.
The "negative thinking" there included depression, fear, doubts, unbelief, rebellion. I think towards the end Derek Prince listed about 8 characteristics of the demonic activity in people.
You know that my style of posting is sometime erratic (rightly or wrongly). And having only recent discussions in mind is not the only impetus for me noticing a good video. I may find worthwhile videos and not know a good place to put them. I recall deliberating where that one from Derek Prince should be placed.
YOU and YOUR posts or disagreeing posts in this thread was not the sole motivation for me posting the link. You think I don't suffer from negative thoughts too?

If I think a post or a video may be useful to someone with questions about Spirituality which are genuine, I'll likely find somewhere to place it. This one by Derek Prince I placed here.
If you didn't like the few seconds you may have spot checked it, that's too bad.
FMF forget about all things that I post here must pass your inspection and approval.
Just forget about that procedure.

Another profitable post from Brother Derek Prince:
Prince was at first a educated philosopher who saw no relevance to his life and what Jesus did 2,000 years ago. Listen to his testimony.

@fmf saidNo, I think this method of posting, discussing sometimes, and linking is okay.
Consider starting a blog if you don't want debate and discussion.
I invited you to consult the webmaster to have my involvement terminated if I am doing something SO inappropriate that it should not be tolerated here.
I notice lately that you have your critics too, who would rather you go disappear as well.
