Someone posted a possible topic as demons: fact vs fiction?
Just asking if anyone truly believes in demons? Also, what exactly are demons supposed to be?
I love movies/shows about demons, particularly SuperNatural. However, I don't know much about demons, beyond what hollywood says thay are. I know that the Catholic church still has priests performing what they call "exorcisms", but they try to keep it on the down-low. Anyone with any knowledge, it would be much appreciated.

Demons seem more commonly sighted than their divine brethren, The Angel. Consider this, and this is the most romantic vision that I have encountered regarding Angels and Demons. Demons are nothing more than fallen Angels pissed at God because he has chosen humans to sit at His Right Hand; He has given us His Only Son not in just a Spiritual Notion that is so often found in alot of religions but in flesh and blood too. Make no mistake, Angels are themselves are far from being related to unicorns and leprecauns. Closer to Green Berets are Angels. Protectors, wardens, muses, possessors; you got a thing for art, love, or killing, there's an angel for you. Heres some interesting reading if you want to wade into this pool. Be careful where you step though, sometimes the your oh so tough guy belief and trust in the scientific method will not be enough get you through...
