NONE of my Asian friends (they live in Asia, not America) have heard of demonic possession. I told them the concept once and they think its completely silly.
Why does this only happen in Europe and America? Do Europeans and Americans go insane more easily? Or is it all staged....

It's unheard of by anyone who doesn't subscribe to Christianity, not just atheists in Asia.

In many of those countries, if you go on a three day fast you will see powerful evil spirits around the idols in their temples. The demons have some ountries exalting them and worshipping them
through the statues they build to them. That is why the statues are so grotesque in myna instances. The spirits get fed through certain sacrifices, mass killings etc etc.

Well I'm a Christian and possessions to me is a fact. The Bible says those happen. Now atheist people tend to believe in science more than in God. So if they can't prove it, it doesn't exist until they live it on their own. Many will give ridiculous explanations to explain it. But the problem that the devil doesn't care if you are a believer or not, he takes whoever he takes...

I wonder what countries are athiest. Anyway, athiests might witness something that is beyond normal explanation, but most people interpret what they see to agree with what they already believe.
They're not going to recognize it when they see it.
I'm sure they would tell a religious person who claimed to see it that they are deluded.
Another argument is that demons are not obsessed enough with complete nonbelievers to even try to possess them. They are (although evil) intelligent and tactical in their thinking. Athiests are already by default on the side of the demons because they are idle in the battle of true good against true evil. They fail to utilize the needed tools (faith and revelation) to even recognize what is truly good and what is truly evil. Even when they think they are doing good, the Adversary (who has a larger picture on things) can defeat their good works.

I don't know maybe all Asians are demonic and have no need of possession maybe it's just your friends that haven't heard of it, can you and your friends really speak for all of Asia? I think not.

No. There are psychological and medical motives for them. to boot, in case you incredibly have faith in them, have you ever seen one that known get replaced into possessed by using a demon? Or have you ever basically learn or watched video clips/video clips on the topic of them? through reality it incredibly is a non-combative question, i will refrain from alongside with on-the-spot components and bigger logical tips.
