Damn near every tweet this bozo makes could be a dunk tank post, but what I like about this is that it’s a reminder that tens of millions of Americans believe there are actually these little demons who go around doing everything from flying spaceships to tempting Rachel in Jacksonville to go ahead and eat another Oreo.

As someone who grew up in the evangelical community in the US, the belief that “aliens are demons actually” was shockingly common.

    he even loaned him a huge (several hundred page, hard cover) reference book that had “information” about every angel’s name “house/order/charge/purpose” etc.

    I actually have something like this, an encyclopedia of spirits. It's very interesting stuff, like the name implies it's just got the names of spirits/gods/holy figures from most of the major/minor faiths and religions through written history.

        No, it's a non-denominational work; like 2,000 pages of demons, fae creatures, spirits, transcendant individuals, saints, angels, gods and goddesses, all sorts of stuff. I have piles of boxes of books at home, I will try and dig it out and share the title/author after work.

          Ah, cool. Davidson's work was mostly Qabalah, and it went along pretty well as a quick reference alongside those Llewellyn Press Enochian ceremonial magick books that Denning and Phillips were putting out back in the 80s and 90s.
