Right. But you said this (my bold):

So if you get to tell people that voices in their head might be real, even though that can worsen their potentially dangerous condition, why can't misogynists indulge their fantasies, disregarding the potential harm it may cause to some individuals?
....My subsequent posts have been in response to that, and what I've been doing is explaining why believing women are objects is not comparable to believing demons exist.
I think that's just semantic nit-picking. Believing that demonic possessions are possible means believing that at least in some cases a person displaying symptoms of mental illness is in fact possessed by devils. That's what the bible says and that's the position of your church.
In the same way - a person can think that SOME women are sexual objects (you know - the "sluts" and the "whores"), but not the good ones, like their family members, or - I don't know - Queen Elizabeth II.
