Here in Arabia, demons are feared to immense levels, they are also held responsible for bad dreams,mental illnesses.
What can't be explained is thrown at demons, it's also the same case with Christianity.
Personally; I think that the paranormal is beautiful. I think demons are pretty beings.
Having multiple sclerosis, I walk like a demonically possessed individual from a horror movie when an MS flare hits me. All you have to do is to mess with the nerves and the infected human would just ....
Maybe ancient people feared sickness, so they blamed the effects they can't heal on Satan.
But the worst crime a person can do, is to betray the real reason behind things, and just blame the unknown.
I think being afraid is the cause Christians are uneasy with the paranormal; but isn't it the same with Heathen Shamans blaming evil spirits, JU=ON stuff?
It's always somebody to blame; except ourselves.
Where in "Arabia" do you live?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
