Such as??? Could you provide examples of these occasions I am afraid of?
I have tons of abstract explanations.
In the event information is passed from the exorcist to anyone connected with the host, the exorcist must assume that being is aware of the conversation. The possessing spirit has spiritual tentacles which reach deeper than their host. Be mindful of what information you permit to such an entity by not revealing methods, tools, and other such information which may allow the spirit to put up a defensive wall during exorcism practices to remove them from their host.
It's fucking arrogant in my opinion to sit there and speak of demons from the absolute affirmative position or external existence. Why do you have to exalt that "truth fish" Christian arrogance?
There are so many simpler, and far more logical explations for anything you can throw out there concerning "demonic possession".
IMO, only a total drunk fruitcake would say, "There are entities that latch on to select people symbiotically and can manifest either dreams or nightmares for the host. But mostly nightmares because people can't handle these entities! Derp."
Yeah so? Schizos get chased around by military officers calling them cowards. And no one ever calls the smoking man in the dark corner of John Nash's mind a demon. Well, not since drilling into the head went out of style. Shits been parroted since before Crowley's pulled goetic demons out of his candy ass.
Then Undefined(not likely)
ELSE : Bullshit(it's just people acting)
Or something to the effect.
But in an alternate context one might inquire whether sleep paralysis could be a form of 'entity attack'.
That is a great point. This concept would be a rule of thumb based upon the defensive mindset of the risk analysis afforded to weigh the exploitability of the Exorcist by such "forces". The exorcist must always be a little overly cautious in such volatile situations. This permits the existence of cushion in the exorcism practice to further a successful encounter in the performance of duties.
As far as myself. I can describe what is happening, but an explanation is of course much more speculative.
