I see, i reckon other people have different definitions. Your one sounds like the application science.

Are 'demons' part of the 'spiritual reality' Rob?

of course , our spirituality is always based upon reason and reason alone! 😏

Are daemons part of our spiritual reality, yes i would say they are, how else are we to
account for the horrific acts of cruelty which we observe almost on a daily basis in the
news and media? i was reading recently about the Dutch Catholic church, 20 to 30,000
cases of child abuse since 1950's and sonhouse had posted a video of some dude using
a flame-thrower on a woman in a lift?? which i could not bring myself to watch. These
things are clearly daemonic if you ask me, which human would perpetrate such things?

That's quite clearly not true. You are a man who has admitted to being closed minded about certain subjects, reason doesn't factor into closed mindedness. Only fear.

Just as humans are capable of acts of supreme kindness and, they are capable of the opposite. We don't need to invent more mystical creatures to account for those actions. We're in the 21st century not the 12th, time to leave superstition behind.

simply because we are in the 21st century does not mean that you have a materialistic
explanation for every kind of phenomena, especially human acts of cruelty!
