Possession exists! Dont tell me it doesn't when most of our universe and some of the Earth is still undiscovered! Im so sick of hearing that it doesn't. I wish Anneliesa Michel and Roland Doe were still alive today to testify. A thread for the open minded!

You talking about demonic possession?

[KaibaSama]

Alien abduction must exist too then.

My hamsters cage was literally SHAKING! She also stands up and shows her teeth at me.

Seems a bit closed-minded to start a thread with "don't tell me it doesn't". If you can absolutely prove that demons exist and they also have the ability to possess people then I will be able to debate it, as such I will trust the few scientific theories that exist about possession. 

 

To start off, the number of times that people have admitted to or have been caught "causing" possessions with drugs/mental persecution/causing mental instability is too high for me to actually believe in possessions. 

 

Secondly, almost going to college for pre-med I understand how the body works, including the brain. While there are various possible scientific causes for "possession". Those who believe in demonic possession simply state that it's something we can't sense or understand. Not exactly trying to help prove it are they? 

 

Finally, demonic possession was an idea created a long time ago to explain something that people didn't understand. Mental instability or the effects of certain drugs. It has been "proven" the same amount as Zeus causing thunderstorms with his rage.

 

So don't tell me it does exist if you can't even explain what it is.

Well it's technically been proven that to the extent of our knowledge, there are no invisible demonic forces working on our brains.

That would just raise questions about the extent to our knowledge though?

[Fikri]

is this thread about demonic possession? i'm so confused lol.

 

i don't believe in any supernatural stuff but here in malaysia stories of schoolgirls being possessed during class out of the blue often made into news headlines. sometimes the situation can be so bad that the whole school needs to be closed while they call somebody to help the girls.

Imho pepole should trust less what someone else tells to you and start to think with their mind and see with their eyes.

Btw, I'm atheist, I can't belive in invisible people that tries to f**k my mind

From the initial hypothesis,  I do not believe that the subject is limited to "religion as we know it" demons.   There is a certain cult convinced that possessions are from an elder race.  Belief in Biblical demons does not require a musing about the vastness of the universe or even pondering over an infinity of alternative realities. 

 

This does explain the anger of Linda Blair, although Linda was merely a child actor hardly responsible for the heavy handed shaming of demonic possession.

Well, guess what? Science can't explain EVERYTHING. Quantum physics has proved there IS something after we die, so why can't possession be proven? You know what? Scientists have always thought " this is it, we know everything about this" or " this doesn't exist" or " that's impossible" but they end up learning something new quite frequently don't they? That story about Regain Macneil the zombie was based on a true story, little do your closed minds know. The real victim wasn't a girl, it was a boy, and it happened in 1949, and y'all can't testify on this cause y'all weren't born. The bed shaking really happened, The excessive language really happened, the green sh*t being sprayed really happened ( idk if that happened but anything is possible). This boy is Roland Doe, or he went by the pseudonym Robbie Mannheim. This kid isn't alive today to testify, so I just did. This story has not been proven real or a hoax yet, and neither has the Anneliesa Michel story. These two are some of the most famous real life possession stories, and they haven't been proven to be all fake so stfu!

[NapisaurusRex]

they haven't been proven to be all fake so stfu!

We aren't even a page into it...

[Sweeney]

This is incredible.

Not something I'd leave in the debate section, but absolutely incredible.

[Waser Lave]

It's a promising sign when you get a "stfu" in 3 moves.

Really? Please link to this, seeing as this is my dad's job, he'll be surprised about this. Of course that's only if this were true.

 

Ready for your mind to be blown? 

 

This morning I was captured by aliens, taken to their planet and used as a fuel source. 

 

^I have created a story as plausible and credible as the stories of possession. By your method of thinking, because you cannot prove that it didn't happen and because the possibility does exist, this story is completely and factually true by every standard of credibility.

 

Finally, I'm pretty much done with debating with a person who starts their thoughts with "

 

Dont tell me it doesn't

 and closes with

 

and they haven't been proven to be all fake so stfu!

 

Good day Sir.

I don't know if I committed either to the pro or anti possession faction.

 

I'm just pro-Linda Blair.

Have a little tact, will you? In a debate thread, there will always be disagreements in both well written and poorly written fashions. It's unbecoming to resort to to the latter.

 

 The real victim wasn't a girl, it was a boy, and it happened in 1949, and y'all can't testify on this cause y'all weren't born. 

 

So you're saying you are a 64 year old at least and can testify for that statement because you were alive then to testify for it?

[Emily]

Linda Blair was the possessed kid in The Exorcist. I'm sensing a pattern here.

If it doesn't improve I think we can safely say that this thread will be getting locked quicker than you can jump out of a window.
