It is believed of the total number of angels created 1/3 of them fell when lucifer fell.

So there are a finite number of demons. this number could be in the trillions, but it is a finite number.

What makes you think the only job of a Demon is possession?

Quote: What is the scriptural basis for the XTIAN positions?
I don't know of any examples of Christian possessions.
Thank you for the first answer. I'm assuming that you mean that god is no longer creating demons in your opinion.

As for the second statement, I don't see how you would have gotten that I was being exclusionary, I just wandered why god created the amount he did, whatever the reason, since it seems like a dick thing to do to make so many.

You misread my question on the last one. I wrote "position" not "possession." I wanted to know if you knew any relevant bible verses that backed up your current christian theological stance on the issues of demon possession, not of examples per se, but rather bible texts that explain the "why's" of demon possession.

My google search revealed this:
http://www.apologeticspress.org/APConten...ticle=1154

and here:
http://www.biblebelievers.com/morton_demon.html

Does your position mirror either of these after a quick perusal?
