FWIW, I spent much of Saturday two weeks ago listening to my grown son talking along the same lines as the OP here. He spent the week after at a psychiatric facility and is doing better now. Still very religious, but other than that, he doesn't seem delusional much.

but that level of hallucinatory experience doesn't happen without demonic input.
Ever try psilocybin? It's an indole alkaloid, not a demon or even a Power of the Air. It can get you to a pretty respectable level of hallucinatory experience, Faith.
And I asked a while back: how does ziprasidone work?
a) Ziprasidone repels demons
b) Ziprasidone alters brain chemistry
c) both of the above

Re: Re Supernatural
the buzzing noise and the orange flash are phenomena I've seen reported of demonic enounters in other circumstances.
But you won't entertain the possibility that they are due to out-of-balance brain chemistry?
or the demonic influence associated with the drugs' use that causes the hallucinations.
There were no demons ever sighted around the bowling alley in Bentonville. Arkansas, in the late 60's, but LSD gave me very nice hallucinations out in the parking lot. Purely synthetic LSD, devoid of shamanism.
Faith, why do antipsychotic drugs work much of the time? Does ziprasidone repel demons?

Or, might I ask you, Faith, why do antipsychotic drugs work much of the time? Does ziprasidone repel demons?
Why is that?
