I googled it and read a bunch of spooky shit about demons and whatnot, but I couldn't find anything like a dictionary definition. So what is it?

Where's our 7th day Adventist? I think they believe in the war.

No need. I found me some Wikipedia (I have no idea why I didn't think to look there but it didn't come up in my googling until I typed "define" spiritual warfare.) It is even more "whackjob" than I previously thought:

Wikipedia Wrote:Spiritual warfare is the Christian concept of fighting against the work of preternatural evil forces. It is based on the biblical belief in evil spirits, or demons, that are said to intervene in human affairs in various ways. Various Christian groups have adopted practices to repel such forces, as based on their doctrine of Christian demonology. Prayer is a common form of spiritual warfare among Christians. Other practices may include exorcism, the laying on of hands, fasting, and anointing with oil.

Spiritual warfare is when you throw gin, vodka, rum, brandy, whisky, etc, bottles at people's faces and call them sober twats.

This line is usually spoken by those who have had the misfortune of seeing Highlander 2.

Excellent point. Prohibition would be the only valid definition of "spiritual warfare." The rest is nonsense.

Prayer helps the believer fool themselves that they have more control over reality than they actually do. When in fact they have less control because they have less understanding about how things really do work in practice.

Spiritual warfare is an more extreme example.

oooh! ooh! I went to a Pentacostal Church for a long time.

It's like Satan wants the bad stuff to happen so he sends demons to accomplish that. The Good Christians  pray to Jeebus and he sends Angels to counteract what the demons are doing.

The more you pray and the more people pray the more good stuff happens.

Why there's not a lot more good stuff happening when Satan only got 1/3 of the angels would be a good question though.

Or why god allows The devil and demons free reign anyway.

or what proof there is that anything they say isn't bullshit.
