You too can be possessed by demons!

(w/o the massive R&R collection, which no doubt dooms us all)
I am Wicca and the Goddess incarnate. I am sooooo going to the Summerlands! Looking forward to seeing you all there. :wink:

According to the Bible, the world is FULL od demons (“we are legion”).so why is demonic posession so rare? After all, SATAN’s minions are always looking to snare humans…so why don’t we see this happening every day?

Well, since I own a record/tape/cd collection that outweighs that of any three radio stations you could name…
I am an agent of Satan. But the duties are largely ceremonial. :wink:

Okay, so I don’t really feel like digging through my folders to count the rock songs. Suffice it to say, it’s between 100 and 200 somewhere. 95 points before music. How boring my life must be…

Whoa. Let’s see:
DogDad makes candles, CurrentDog alone has more stuffies than ToysRUs ™ (and that doesn’t include my stuffy collection OR DogDad’s), We have enough oil lamps & oil candles to make the house look like we’ve got at least 2 150-watt bulbs burning in every room of the house when there’s a power outage, we both collect “alternative religion” texts as well as different translations of the Bible, Apocrypha, and Pseudopigrepha, we have two 200-CD folders that are FULL, mostly of R&R and some Heavy Metal though I’m not sure about the Death Metal thing, plus various smaller collections of CDs (mostly Beatles & stuff though, which while evil aren’t on The List) and I have my birthstone set in my engagement ring which is welded to my wedding ring. Which NEVER EVER comes off my hand.
Oh, and we have every HP book, every HP AUDIObook, saw both movies on opening night (and harassed the local “HP is EEEEEEVIL” group both times) at the opening show at the local theater, and we own both on DVD.
AND I crocheted DogDad a “Harry Potter” scarf in Gryffindor’s colors last year.

Well. I guess I’m not so much GOING to hell as I am currently HOSTING it. That explains the Sulfur & Brimstone Pit in the computer room, I suppose…

Oh, geez, I missed the whole “owls by themselves are BAD BAD things”. I collect owl stuff. I have boxes and boxes of them. I have an owl clock. I have owl saltshakers. I have stuff I don’t have room to put up and I have to get and install a BUNCH of shelving for. I have owl pictures on my computer desktop. I have a ceramic owl on my computer at work, too.

You know, I’m surprised my house hasn’t just VANISHED in a puff of sulfur.

I think there are about 4-5 candles in my house. I don’t have anyhting else on the list apart from about 300 rock & roll/death metal albums, which bumps me well into the 1000s I would imagine.

does designing a range of Harry Potter watches & clocks for the 3rd film count as demons? if so, i’m screwed. big time.

JK Rowling’s a demon, IMO

*1 point per candle, extra point if they are paisley or shaped like frogs, owls, shamrocks, or if they have symbols from “other” cultures/religions.

200-- Like the abovementioned DogDad, I make candles. Many of them are marked with pentagrams, trigrams, or kanji (the last being part of my effort to learn Japanese). I also have lots of candles made by others.

30–Bonus points for giving away candles on Halloween.

**If you own paisley–

shirts 5 points
socks 1 point
ties 3 points
pants 5 points
cutains 10 points
bedsheets 20 points **

0–No paisley for me.

*2 points if you have a horseshoe in your house for luck. As a matter of fact, 2 points for any symbols of luck in your home. 5 points if they are made from jade.

10–Various luck charms accumulated over the years, including a ward-stone, which should probably count extra for its Faerie connection.

*1 point per Harry Potter book or store bought paraphenlia. 5 points if you saw the movies in the theater. 10 points per child if you took children. 20 points per DVD or VHS tape.

95

*3 points per doll or stuffed animal.

21–But I think I should get extra points for the mummy and her cat.

*10 points if it’s a Barbie.

***17 points per Troll doll. **

1 point per rock ‘n’ roll song that can be played in your home.

5 points for death metal.

1 point per Book of Mormon or “books on other religions”, but 10 points for the satanic bible.

10

*10 points for items used in witchcraft.

80

**6 points for any demons you have invited into your home.

20 points if you visit a witchdoctor for your ailments.**

20–I knew that ear infection was going to come back to haunt me.

**1 point for Lawry’s seasoned salt. **

0–I prefer Chachere’s

7 points for the possession of mah-jongg tiles.

0

3 points for owning birthstones.

3–Not mine (I detest aquamarine), but others.

10 points for dreamcatchers.

10–Just finished making one.

7 points for pictures of Guardian Angels. (with demonic faces in their wings)

0

5 points per perfume or cologne bottle you own.

15

1/2 point per Proctor and Gamble product (come on people, you already knew about Proctor and Gamble, I’ll not have you boosting your scores so easily!)

5–Total WAG here, but probably close.

*Double your points if you’ve given any of these items out at Halloween. (In other words, if you gave someone a candle of an owl on Halloween, you get 4 points. 1 for the candle, one because it was an owl, and double that for giving it on Halloween.)

Since my music collection is apparently not up to snuff, I think that gives me a total of 999 points. Then again, there’s something striking about that number…:smiley:

I tried to add it all up until I got to the toys, dolls and stuffed animals. Come on, people! I have a 6-year-old daughter! I can’t possibly count all those! I’ll just have to accept the fact that I’m going to burn in hell while being tormented by all the demons that have come into my house over the years. Oh well.

Man, they’re going to have to build a whole new level in Hell, just for us Dopers!

:eek:

I started to count but gave up after reaching close to 10000 based on my music.

Cool.

And here I thought I was gonna go to hell because of the 60 gigs of porn on my puter.

I was doing okay until I got to the part about Lawry’s seasoned salt.

And then I wet myself laughing.

There’s porn on computers?!:eek:

I’m off the chart, man, off the freakin’ chart . . .
