The Bible says that sickness is caused by evil spirits and the influence of the Devil. And the fact that prayer and exorcisms have cured diseases proves this.
Atheistic scientists assumed that the tiny things they saw in microscopes causing diseases were just miniature animals, but doesn't it make more sense that they're demons?

If bacteria and viruses are living things, then why aren't they mentioned being created by God in Genesis? Doesn't that PROVE that they were made by Satan?

Well, at least that's original, I haven't heard that one.
It's insane, but original

no. the Bible says that demons CAN cause sickness and disease, not that they are them themselves.
sorry, but I don't think it's wise to try and rule out ALL science. Besides, there are scientists who are Christian (not the religion Christian Science) who have discovered cures by praying to God for help, and they found out the cures scientifically.
a virus isn't a demon. It's basically a non-living strand of DNA or RNA that changes the genetic structure of a cell to reproduce more unhealthy cells. A demon is an evil spirit who can twist your dna's normal funcytions, or lead you to contract a disease.

No but they are a physical manifestation of a spiritual problem. Notice the M.O. of both a virus and a bacteria. Very interesting. I like to see how things in the natural world reflect things in the spiritual world. For instance I think it is very interesting how a snakes venom attacks the weakest part of the body first. If you have lung problems at all then that is what is first affected.

NO, If they Were Demons then God Would have Pushed them All The Way To Hell. Just like he Did Satan, Who tried to claim the Power of The Air and FLoat up Against the Will of God.
Heresy, Heresy, Heresy!!!

LMAO - another funny question. again, i have to wonder if you're joking, but i'll answer just incase you're not, maybe you're just young. so anyway, back in the bible time they didn't have today's knowledge of medicine or most things. so back then, they didn't have microscopes to see these tiny things, and assumed that it must be the work of the devil. they also believed that the world was flat. maybe you should put your bible down and go read some modern more applicable books.

Demons are defined as supernatural. Bacteria and viruses are living beings that are simply living out their life cycles. It's hardly equivalent to anything in the bible.
You're simply retrofitting a "god of the gaps" argument.

the BIble most certainly does not say all sicknesses are caused by dmeons
sickness and death is caused by the fall as a result of Adam's sin
bacteria and virus were created good and had originally good purpose... but just as plants grew thorns and animals became carnivores...
the whole creation suffered the effects of the fall

Well I'm sure the state of Kansas would love to teach that as an "alternative viewpoint" to germ theory.
Really though, it was after germ theory came about that we finally stopped killing each other as "witches" for free-thinking and we began to make progress again. The same will eventually, hopefully happen with evolution and other forms of science.

those miniature animals can be sent be demons.
but anyway i don't believe in christianity, it's very unclear. alot of things inside bible are uncertain and no way to prove.
and I hate it when those christards say:'you can't prove we are wrong scientifically'.... why do sceintists prove that a fantasy fiction(bible) is right or wrong? they have better things to do.

no, demons are to big and do not compress enough. what Satan uses is micro-imps. i have seen electron microscopic pictures of them, but the one world scientific atheist conspiracy has destroyed the evidence. they wear hats and have sharp sticks, that's why it hurts.
