Calling a Haunting DEMONIC

Some things to note, however I will touch on only a few.

Although some out there are "quick on the switch" to call a
haunting "Demonic" first consider these facts:

THEY NEVER WORK ALONE

Spirits that seem to have a malicious nature never work alone, so if reports
being choked, or slapped, aggressive words and actions, do we always call it
demonic?

No, but we have to carefully consider that.

Whatever it is, human or inhuman, in this case it likley answers to a Demonic. The Hierarchy is that
a human spirit whom may dwell in a house, can be puppet to a demonic master.
They most often don’t act entirely alone. And here is where it confuses some. The Demon
itself may not have manifested, but just as they can whisper subliminal thoughts
and temptations into our minds. The silently call the shots behind the scenes in
this manner, more than merely influencing the actions of the human spirit that
has manifested. I have found and others whom are well knowledged in this field,
that “Shadows” fall into this category when they are not demonic. I read
someone misquoting me elsewhere, that I said "all shadows are demons". When I never said such a thing and that is not true. I will go as far as to say they are NOT what I considered “good” spirits.
But they can be either human or inhuman. If they are human the “They never work
alone” scenario often applies.

Then there is another scenario.

LOWER DEMONS

A lesser rank and power, as with some demons, are lower level. And they don’t
exhibit as much power and aren’t as easy to identify as “Demons”, they seem
‘weaker’ as these are also often easier to rebuke. And we find that they have
more of an aversion to basic “positive” things, even Incandescent lamps
(Artificial lighting) not just sunlight. This might be incorrectly judged as a
Human spirit. Just consider this rather than assuming only the more severe
hauntings are the only ones that are demonic. Because it simply maybe the
strategy to lay low and work into oppressing say someone to suicidal thoughts.

So we always don’t expect excess activity in a true demonic haunting.

THE MASQUERADE

Another thing to consider is the “Masquerade”. The demon doesn’t portray itself
for what it is. Quite commonly it is not the more melodramatic scenario. (i.e.
the little girl whom missed her mommy, or say the spirit of an attractive
teenage boy whom tragically died in a car crash.) These however are snares,
lures, to pull the heart strings and to manipulate us into making bad decisions.
Often custom designed to the person they are presenting themselves to.

We do “know them by their fruits”,

We never want to assume some spirit is less than what it
is, incorrectly diagnosing a Demonic haunt as a simple ghost (human) haunt is
when falling short on the true nature and origins of the spirits can be
dangerous.

This is saying over analyzing a case and coming up with a “demonic” as the
culprit, isn’t so bad. As assuming it is simply a “ghost of a little girl” when
it is in fact, a Demonic.

Gabriel Amorth made a case saying even that it is “Rather
silly” to scrutinize possible possession cases as mental, when all of this red
tape further delays a solution that could be the right one in performing the
“Roman Ritual” (Exorcism). Saying no real “Harm has come from the ritual”, so
why scrutinize it for several months to be 100% sure?

Good point! Even modern psychology recognizes in the least
a often successful “Plecebo effect” that can result from the ritual. (But
remember they are taking an Atheist view, would never recognize the source as
real demons) But we know Fr. Amorth is speaking of the “Roman Ritual”, not
some half-baked solution that is a careless mix of other belief systems for
example. Let us never confused these other so-called Exorcism methods with the
one I am referring to. Other methods can be quite reckless.

(Now don’t go throw salt all over a house, it corrodes everything!)

An inadequate and incorrect solution can also bring a
“retaliation”, it can essentially “piss them off”.

However, having said that, just keep in mind that it maybe
safer to assume the worse, however acting on it is another story. And how you
take action is also. And for Godness sake don’t charge them money! : )
