I believe that the Supreme White colonialists who settled North America burned women at the stake because they were really, genuinely dealing with witchcraft. It sounds absurd, but we learn about possession and exorcism in the Bible. It's foolish for Christians to suddenly believe such things are impossible.

We live in a society that worships empiricism. If you can't quantify it, it might as well not exist. "That boy ain't right" is no less true today, but it doesn't fly anymore because you if can't say *exactly* what's wrong with the person in clinical terms, then apparently nothing is wrong (and even the very notions of right and wrong are in question).
What's worse is that these people know they're struggling with demons, so they go to a psychologist who, instead of encouraging them to master their demons and practice virtue... drugs them up to effectively kill their better angels and let the demon run rampant. *At best* the pills debilitate the human to the point that they're harmless, at worst they start knocking out bits of memory where the human is effectively completely out of control and the demon masquerades as the human to do as it pleases. These days those pastimes tend to involve shooting up schools and whatnot.
And you can make secular arguments about neurochemistry and impulses and whatnot, but
a.) INCREDIBLY difficult to measure in real time, and
b.) all of those are just physical manifestations of what our better ancestors knew to be "demons."
It's just another product of the Critical Society - that is, adherents to Critical Theory. They break everything down to the point that nothing means anything, at which point they can rebuild meaning to fit their own ends.
Empiricism/Critical Theory is ultimate a diabolic mountain of lies, the more it deconstructs and defiles, the more it knocks out the foundation on which it stands. Its like jenga blocks, they can only remove so much before it all falls over.

Reminder that the founder of The Satanic Temple and modern Satanism in general was a jew who followed the talmud and the zohar.
judaisim is not the Hebrew religion; it is demonworship of Baal, Moloch, and above all Remphan. The so-called "star of David" is not mentioned at all in the religious texts of the Hebrew religion, yet the design is mentioned as the star of Remphan. judaism is the synagogue of satan, those who call themselves jews but are not.
Kabbalism, which has essentially taken over Talmudic Judaism, is literally Gnostic in origin. Gnostics were the OG Satanic Shape-Shifters, they cause the early Church no amount of trouble because at that time they were LARPing as Christians instead of as jews, but as the jews essentially died off due to pissing off Rome, I would assume the Gnostics just infiltrated and took over the jewish skinsuit as Talmudism was forming. It would certainly explain their visceral hatred of Christianity, since Gnostics hate the Hebrew/Christian God and essentially worship Satan as a power beyond Him.
To be fair, upside down crosses are a Christian symbol Satanists (Ie jews) have tried to appropriate and corrupt because (((evil))) lacks any creativity and must steal from Good.
