How do angels and demons influence mankind?

by onacruse in

wts publications, and indeed virtually all religions on this planet, assert that angels and demons have regular influence on mankind, on individual human beings as well as on the general course of human events.. but i've never read anything specific about how they supposedly accomplish this.. do they tweak our neurons?

do they fiddle with our hormones, thereby making us feel good or bad about a certain course of action?

do they inject thoughts into our brains, perhaps in such a subtle way that we think those are our own thoughts?

And free will?

We gave up free will when we went to the "dark side." Keep in mind there is no free will, only compliance to the Wt. If you are non-compliant you are of the devil.

she told me that in all the years as a jw she never know if god love and would destroy her if she missed a meeting or did not do enought field service.

If I was inside a coffin and cognizant enoughh to pray, I would instead be kicking and screaming like hell to get out. Which, come to think of it is exactly how I felt sitting in a kh.

According to my ex-wife I have demons flying through my head. From her perspective so do all apostates. She absolutely believes that demons are sitting our heads and driving us around like a pilot flys an airplane. The influence is direct and literal.

Funny you should ask about Taiwan. This country has a national healt care system. And unlike the healthcare system in the US, it seems to work ok.

BTW, if I speak good english it is because I grew up in the heart of this great country, the midwest. We are the only americans that don't speak with a regional accent.

I was hoping this would be the year I would have my first christmas tree but it will have to be delayed until next. I am in the process of a move back to NYC and everyting is still in boxes.
