The mind can be corrupted without consequence so long as the hear remains pure.

How does one prove something existential?

Demons ... PFEH! :P

If you are a Christian, and believe in such things, then remember your Gospel:

Mark 16:15-17 wrote:
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues...

And...

James 4:7 wrote:
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Just seek out Christian leaders, tell them of your problems, submit yourself to God before them, let them do what it takes to cast out your demons, and you will be free.

No demon can possess a real Christian without his or her cooperation ... right?

If you believe in such things...


James had a point. He also had some other great quotes, such as where he says that if someone is a hearer and not a doer it is as if they looked at their face in the mirror, walked away, and straight away forgot what they looked like.

You are right about post-Crucifixion/Resurrection diabolical power being limited by a need for humans, especially Christians to voluntarily invite the demons.

Hey, I do submit to the Lord and resist the Devil some of the time; it is just that Lilith in particular and to a lesser extent Curunir are adept at exploiting those aspects of me that WANT to give in - this of course does not excuse my repeated betrayals of my Lord, but He is merciful and will forgive if I truly repent.

The corruption of my mind is far advanced; the heart is only beginning to follow.

John Stalvern waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were demons in the base. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Cernel Joson were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
John was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad "I want to be on the ships daddy."
Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS"
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UAC he knew there were demons.
"This is Joson" the radio crackered. "You must fight the demons!"
So John gotted his palsma rifle and blew up the wall.
"HE GOING TO KILL US" said the demons
"I will shoot at him" said the cyberdemon and he fired the rocket missiles. John plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
"No! I must kill the demons" he shouted
The radio said "No, John. You are the demons"
And then John was a zombie.
