I just thought I'd say that this is a page about the Occult which includes a set of religions in their own right, and thus I wonder if half of the article should really be taken up by the Christian viewpoint. I mean, it's great to discuss all points of view - there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, but we ought to do some research and expand this article a bit. It is a stub.

We need to answer liberals (or at least materialists) who regard '''all''' supernatural concepts and practices as silly and ineffective. For one thing, if (as we Christians believe), the sort of [[demon]]s cast out by [[Jesus]] are real, then attempts to contact them would be "bad" precisely because such attempts might be effective! You would be liable to form a relationship with a demon, who would then most likely tempt you to do (or feel or think) things that pulled you away from [[God]].
