For one, I don't dispute that there are those that practice occult "customs"; just because they practice it, doesn't mean it's legitimate or real.

As far as you're personal experiences; I'm not going to tell you what you did or did not experience.

That said, I'm sure you can understand that, as someone who has not had experiences of that nature, nor seen any evidence other than testimony, I take a stance of skepticism. Is it all possible? Sure. I'm open-minded enough to understand that, and, if presented with overwhelming argument or evidence, I may change my stance. In other words, I'm reserving judgement.

Many people have claimed many things. User testimony is valuable, but, depending on the circumstances, can only go so far, especially when there are potential alternative explanations.

As I said before; I am not sure it entirely matters. God's power dwarfs that of Satan; we are to reject sin; regardless of where it comes from.

Thanks for the information! Discussion of such important topics is always valuable!

God bless you!
