“And no nation or tribe to my knowledge has not acknowledged that there are many invisible beings, and that they divide into good spirits and evil spirits, according to how they benefit man.”
—Witching Hour, Anne Rice
The above quote might be true IF one does not take into account America from approximately 1620-2000.
For over 300 years, America–practically alone among the societies of the world–carried out an unending battle against concepts observed, taught and accepted elsewhere: the demonic, magic, witchcraft, sorcery and all other aspects of the occult.

In effect, America’s elite–its educational system, its popular press, its scientific establishment, its medical authorities–conducted a War against the Supernatural.
There were other countries which downplayed or otherwise discounted the supernatural (mostly in “enlightened” Europe), but in the USA, ALL belief of the supernatural was taught to be a sign of a primitive and backward mind. In America, every malady, every circumstance was taught to be the results of physical, cause-and-effect relationships–even when such relationships clearly did not exist.

Was this indoctrination against the supernatural because America was unfamiliar with such occurrences?
No.
America–while constantly indoctrinating its people against the supernatural–became home to every type of illegitimate supernatural practice on earth.
Sorcery, witchcraft, secret societies, consulting with the demonic and familiar spirits, the glorification and worship of pagan gods, occult practices: ALL found a VERY receptive home in a country–the ONLY country for most of its history–which protected every antichrist cult and practice which existed with its infamous “freedom of religion.”
This protection–while every other country on earth hunted down these evil forces–was extended to ALL who followed Satan.
AND this protection included the lethal force of government which enforced this protection.
As 2018 draws to a close, every supernatural practice forbidden by the Bible has found a haven and center of growth in the United States: divination, astrology, fortune-telling, child sacrifice, animal charming, witchcraft, sorcery, necromancy, among others.
“There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD”
–Deuteronomy 18:10-12
The USA not only has become the worldwide center of these practices, it has exported them to all nations of the earth.
So, the USA didn’t REALLY conduct a War against the Supernatural.
What was undertaken was only a phony war; one which was meant to fool the unwary. A war in which those with power said one thing while doing quite the opposite.
But the question remains: Why did a country which was immersed in supernatural practices and traditions teach the public the EXACT OPPOSITE?
It is supposed there are several reasons for this blatant deception.
- To contradict and challenge the Bible.
- To discourage others from entering occult fields which became the property of favored individuals.
- To clear out the competition of those already engaged in such practices. Eventually, only “favored” practitioners flourished as independent operators not connected to the system were flushed out of that system.
- To confuse the public as to the cause of various problems. If one does not know the true problem, one cannot find a solution. The public was taught that their afflictions–particularly those affecting their health–were the cause of physical problems. Physical solutions were offered as a fix. Constant propaganda convinced even those who were continually afflicted that their relief was as near as a visit to their neighborhood MD.
- To those who control the flow of information, “Knowledge is power” is a maxim near and dear to whatever they call a heart. Controlling such information is their equivalent to controlling power.
However, this indoctrination against the supernatural–which ran counter to every other nation on earth–eventually ran into problems the closer one got to the last days.
Which necessitated the need for so many of the previously-told stories to be changed–especially in science, an ancient, pagan religion which was sold as an objective arbiter of truth.

Which helps explain why so many websites supposedly dedicated to “science” feature regular stories of witchcraft, the supernatural and invisible beings. The number of these stories will not grow less: they will only increase as science makes astounding new “discoveries” the closer we get to the climax of human history (the return of Jesus Christ).
This also helps explain the almost-constant media attention on witchcraft, witches, pagans, satanists and other antichrist groups.
Other media favorites are stories about “haunted houses” and “ghosts.”

Which would seem to be quite unusual for a nation which, for centuries, taught that such things existed only in the fevered imaginations of the mentally unstable.
DOES the reader believe the stories of men regarding the supernatural?
DOES the reader believe that the supernatural consists of those who access illegitimate supernatural power (witches, wizards, necromancers, astrologers, diviners, etc.)?
It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
