Never seen it. Demons can cause a number of physiological effects in the body as well. There are accounts in the body of a person who was demon possessed who happen to have seizures, others who happen to foam at the mouth, etc. Some or all of these effects are associated with demon possession. But just because a person exhibits these behaviors that does not automatically mean that they are demon possessed, other examinations must be made to determine whether someone is just sick, ill, schizophrenic, suffering from MPD, or some other health-related issue. But what I am trying to convey is that demons can be the agents of many health-related issues or they may not be. Some physiological things are demon-related and some are not. It is an issue that must be looked objectively and case-by-case. But here are some signs of demon possession:[b]Some phenomena associated with the presence of a demon include but are not limited to:
• extraordinary strength (which is inconsistent with the age and development of the person),
• manifesting a voice or voices that are completely foreign to the person (i.e. not their own, but separate and distinct entirely),
• strong aversion for anything that pertains to God (this is not ordinary atheism, but intense hatred for God or anything holy, and sacred that pertains to Him),
• an acrid, horrible, body odor, stench or smell of sulphur (which is associated with Hell based on the Bible and the testimony of people who have been there)
• knowledge of languages never before studied, sometimes never even heard; the ability to speak languages never before studied;
• "superhuman" abilities such as psychic abilities such as knowing facts about other individuals that he/she has never met.
• wounds appearing upon the victim that have not been inflicted by the self or another concrete source,
• behaviors out of the realm of human possibility such as levitation; (the possessed rises and floats off the ground, chair, or bed; there is no physically traceable support);
• cessation of normal bodily functions for periods of time, including breathing and heart beat; In addition, the accompanying situations related to the area around possessed individuals do not seem to be explainable in terms of the brain or any aspect of biology; science cannot yet explain the distinct, marked decrease in the temperature of the room the possessed individual occupies
• writing appearing out of nowhere even on the possessed individual’s body;
• sounds and voices arising from nowhere or from an unseen force;
• objects moving on their own and destruction of objects in the room, without anyone having laid a hand upon them
• "possessed gravity" (the possessed person becomes
physically immovable, or those around the possessed are
weighted down with a suffocating pressure)
• violent smashing of furniture, constant opening and
slamming of doors, tearing of fabric in the vicinity of
the possessed, without a hand laid on them; and so on. [/B]
you dont need to be posessed of, nor take from demonic/antigod power to display supernatural power. most of what u stated is a stereotypical image of what U expect and want supernatural displays to be like. nor does it have to come from god's grace. u cant see beyond black and white{without actually being able to differentiate even those from each other} or rather, ur ENFORCED black and white. and for that, i pity you. tell me, how many people have u known, closely or in depth that have displayed these so called supernatural powers in your presence?

What about the movie makes it fictional in your mind Goddess Kali?
Obviously your parents didn't take care of you a lot. The things you see in a movie and in cinema aren't real. Spider-Man is also not actually flying over the roofs of a city to protect people from mutant criminals, or "sinners" as you'd put it. (Sorry to destroy your illusions!)
The movie you are talking about, too, is fictional because of the following: It has been acted by what you call actors, and the screenplay has been written by someone you call screenplay writer. No, it's not a documentary movie.

I will go and start a poll in GDF now, and we'll have to expect there are a lot of humorous people who'll vote that they believe in Demons like Britney Spears, I'm sure. But we'll see if there are really so few people to doubt existence of demons, magic and that kind of fairy-tale crap.

You call illusionists witches? I wonder what that makes Jesus.
There are two types of preternatural or supernatural power in this universe: power that comes from God and power that comes from satan/demons. David Blaine and Chriss Angel do not get their power from God; hence, they're power comes from satan/demons.

There is no preternatural or supernatural power.

Yes you are correct. All power came from God initially, but satan and demons no longer serve God even though they retain their supernatural power from God.

So in a way, witches get their power from God, since demons or whatever got their powers from God...Hence witches are good 😄

Not really. His opinion required evidence, mine does not.
I always chuckle when nonbelievers use this arguement. They counter someone elses opinion, want them to prove something but don't provide any evidence what so ever for their claims. Whats good for the pot is good for the kettle. I am not on either side prove to me that you are right and he is wrong.

Their power is never used to glorify God, but initially to enchant and astonish, then ultimately to steal, kill, and destroy people's lives insidiously.
