Hiya, newbie.
Being an atheist just means you don't believe in God, which still leaves the door open for some pretty absurd stuff. Demon possession is one of those examples of absurd things you can believe in without belief in God.
Me, my simple rule of thumb is to be critical of everything; if it's legit, it can stand up to my questioning. If it's silly superstition, it usually doesn't take long to realize that.
Me, I'm kinda curious what her description of Baal was. I mean, that's one of those things that seems to get a different look depending who's describing him (although, the generic modern day demon is usually pretty damn common).
