First of all there is no devil and there are no demons to cast out. It is impossible for God (whose basic qualities are love, goodness ... etc) to allow demonic forces to exist as to confuse, mislead and subvert His children—whereever they are, especially in view of the fact that there exist determinism in the physical world and free-will in the mental world.
Anyone who is deep into the psychology and psychiatry knows the truth behind the so-called demon-possessions. What is at the root may be any of the following:
- Emotional and physical abuse as a child
- Multiple Personality Disorder
- Periodic increase in the actions of electromagnetic fields around earth which may disrupt brain activity in a disturbed individual. [People who seem to be possessed have lives which seem to be out of their control and filled with a variety of personal obsessions and compulsions. People who hear voices commanding them to do bad things are likely to be schizophrenic, they are not possessed.
- A friently spirit or a relative’s spirit may try to contact with a view to help the bereaved or to settle some karmic account—which may be mistaken as evil spirit.
History shows that Satanic entities are a myth perpetrated by those who seek to CONTROL the minds of others for their own ends!
JWs’ much pulicized claim that Bible has stood the test of time is another myth!
