Your verbosity, founded upon your memory of what others have said, proves that you retain words without ever having considered their meaning. Long-worded, long-winded, obscure, affirmatizing by negatives, confessing by implication!—Where is the beginning and end of you, and what is your meaning? Measurement of life should be proportioned rather to the intensity of the experience than to its actual length. There is no place but the Universe; no limit but the limitless; no bottom but the bottomless. Not only were you a sneak and a cheat, but you led on your own brother to do the same. You have caused a rift in more than your marriage. You caused one in your family. Your brothers are not speaking to each other. And behind it all are your own actions. If you had not done what you did to your brother, a certain person who will remain unnamed would not have felt justified in his decisions. Your family would still be whole. It has to stop. You have to stop. And, believe me, my fingers do not want to write these words. However, you cannot do this anymore, you are not only hurting your own family, but the entire community. #RandolphHarris 1 of 9

It is up to you to go to the house and straighten things out with everyone before there can be any form of healing and forgiveness. It is important that you go about this the right way or I am afraid you will face the doctrine of damnation and your soul will be forever lost. And now when know why you have been painting your story in the media while you hide in your lake front cottage. Please understand. Know that I love you, but I understand. We are naturally in the habit of explaining our actions and making excused for the things we do. I really think that the hypnotic therapy that you were participating in has allowed someone to control and manipulate you into becoming someone other than yourself and you are under a form of mind control. Basically, you allowed a person to transmit information or messages directly from his or her personality or consciousness to you through trance speaking while you were in a dream like state, allowing someone else to take control of the physical mind and body through rituals. It is also possible that possession allows some to be take over either by an outside entity or else by a different part of themselves. #RandolphHarris 2 of 9

Sin has a habit of persisting, and is remorseless in it choice of vehicles. In the United States of American, 57 percent of people believe in the Devil. While 51 percent of people believe that an individual can be possessed by a spirit or the Devil. Yet, only 15 percent of people believe that others are frequently possessed by the Devil, 29 percent believe that possession by the Devil happens on occasion, 45 percent think it rarely happens, and only 11 percent of people think that people are never possessed by the Devil. Darkness is more eligible than light to those whose deeds are evil. Some churches have a ritual called exorcism, which is designed to drive the Devil or evil spirits out of an individual. It is fascinating that 46 percent of people believe in the power of exorcism, 19 percent do not, and 36 percent of people are undecided. Every noisy evil is missed when it is taken away, and it is also believed that once an evil presence is exorcised out of a person that at some point and time it can return. It is not reasonable to assumes that all forms of possession can be explained in neurological terms. #RandolphHarris 3 of 9

The subtile Devil is never absent from his business, but ready at all occasions to encourage his servants. In sociocognitive terms, i.e. in terms of the apparently possessed person taking on a learned role for various reasons, is a result of involuntary behavior that is beyond completely beyond their control. However, at the other extreme, some of these cases will be deliberately taken on for a variety of reasons, and many of these cases will be deliberate hoaxes to produce a bestselling book, successful more, and to create news coverage and get on talks shows. There can also be cases where people are possessed, but they do not display irrational nor maladaptive behavior. The sociocognitive perspective is most commonly associated with a particular approach to explaining hypnotic phenomena by invoking such psychological factors as attitudes, expectancies, beliefs, compliance, imagination, attention, concentration, distraction, and relaxation. Hypnotic possession and responding is a state or condition of the person rooted in conceptions held by an entity in the mini-drama that is labeled the hypnotic situation. #RandolphHarris 4 of 9

In many societies, possession is deliberately invited as a part of healing rituals. The medium becomes possessed and it is then the spirit or another individual who actually diagnoses the problem and recommends treatment, along with general advice for dealing with life’s problems. The rituals may be one-on-one consultations or public ceremonies. The transition from one spirit identity to another is marked by recognizable changes in behavior such as changes in voice, personality, appearance, and dress. Sometimes respected members of the community are possessed, the possessing spirit is a major deity, and the performance serves to reinforce the central value of the society. That is called central possession. In contrast, in peripheral possession the person possessed is a socially marginal and powerless member of society and the possessing spirit is often capricious and amoral. Peripheral possession is typically associated with illness and distress on the part of the possessed and the initial signs that someone is possessed and the initial signs that someone is possessed may be physical symptoms such as headaches or stomach ache. #RandolphHarris 5 of 9

Peripheral possession is provided a socially acceptable means for the powerless to express their anger and resentment at those above them in the social hierarchy without fear of retribution. After all, they may not be held personally responsible for the demands they make during possession or for mocking and insulting their supposed superiors. It is the spirit that is held responsible. Not surprisingly, peripheral possession tends to occur at times of high stress. However, if the spirit is in an individual, I suppose they would have to be strong enough to break the bond because if it is the spirit that will be punished and it is in that vehicle, then both may be destroyed. The New Testament of the Bible provides many example of possession by demons and exorcism, the most prominent symptoms being convulsions, sensory and cognitive deficits, enactment of multiple identities, loss of voluntary control over behavior, increased strength, and amnesia. In the New Testament, sufferers typically displayed only one or a few of the symptoms but by the medieval period sufferers tended to display most or all of them. It was believed that that witches, acting on behalf of Satan, could send demons to possess people. #RandolphHarris 6 of 9

However, the demons possessing their victims could be coerced into naming the witch that had sent them, who could then be arrested and tortured, resulting in the naming of other witches who would then receive similar treatment. Thus, the possessed often served as witch-finders and, those controlled the demoniacs had a powerful weapon to use against political, social, or personal rivals. Demons were also believed to be intelligent and Worldly in contrast to the members of the lower social classes whom they possessed. Therefore, evidence of intelligence or learning in such folk could also be taken as an indication of possession. An even more certain sign is when a sick man speaks in foreign tongues unknown to hum or understands in those tongues. It is a manifest sign when a man speaks literary or grammatical Latin, or if without knowledge of the art he sings musically or says something of which he could never have had any knowledge. Some people try to strangle those they suspect are possessed to get the witch or demon out of them, so they will come to their senses. #RandolphHarris 7 of 9

I find this idea of possession interesting. Some of you, who engage in unorthodox behavioral therapy become very corrupt an evil, and you poison the minds of others by claiming that someone else is possessed by a demon, Devil, or is the child of the Devil. However, when observing some of these people who are being targeted by witch hunters, it actually appears the people who are attacking them and turning their family and community members against the individual are actually the ones doing evil. Also, the lies many of you spread about people you suspect to be evil actually put that individual in danger. So it leads me to believe that the person you are targeting is not the problem, but you are and are creating a mass hysteria to put their lives in danger. We saw this same kind of behavior during the Salem Witch Trials, and now we are seeing it again. So, I do believe that some possession is a mental disorder, but it is more instinctively evil. Because you witch hunters clearly have a mental disability and I am sure doctors have prescribed medication for you, and even though you may be taking this medication and going to church, you still display signs of mental illness or evil. #RandolphHarris 8 of 9

For when the will abandons what is above itself, and turns to what is lower, it becomes evil—not because that is evil to which it turns, but because the turning itself is wicked. There are two kinds of evils, sin and the penalty for sin. And if you are given medication for a mental disorder and it is not working, then you must be evil, your soul is evil, you are a product of this Devil you hate so much and church nor modern medicine can purge it from your being. Since there is happiness for those who do not sin, the Universe is perfect; and it is no less perfect because there is misery for sinners…So, whatever a soul may choose, ever beautiful and well-ordered in all its parts is the Universe whose Maker and Governor and President is God. Our Universe is called “Immense Heaven” and it is best not because it contains no evil, but because any other possible Universe would contain more evil. “And boy I got ya ‘cause tonight I’m making deals with the Devil, and I know it’s going to get me in trouble. Just as long as you know you got me. These friends keep talkin’ way too much, say I should give you up. Can’t hear them, no, ‘cause I have been hear all night. I have been here all day, and boy, got me walkin’ side to side.” (Ariana Grande – Side to Side). Side to side means two or more people or things lined up so their reality, beliefs, thoughts, and ideas are the same. It could be a form of possession. #RandolphHarris 9 of 9
