How Demons Can Affect Objects
Catholic Answes | Tom NashCan objects be possessed by demons? … Is there biblical evidence for this?
Only people can be demonically possessed. But inanimate objects can be negatively controlled through curses. As Adam Blai, a lay Catholic expert on religious demonology and exorcism, writes:
A curse is simply a demon sent to do some harm. . . . Cursed objects are objects that have had the opposite of a blessing done to them. Instead of grace being attached to an object to make it holy, a demon has been attached to the object to make it associated with evil (Hauntings, Possessions and Exorcisms, p. 45).
I once had a burrito that, well, lemme tell you . . .
A Ping 9-iron. Demonically cursed, fershur.
Sometimes I wonder about my computer…
Bright red dots.
A few weeks back, I was in the sacristy, preparing to begin the 10 o’clock service. When the bell rang, I went to light the acolyte’s candlelighter, and the lighter flame died before the wick could catch. Tried another lighter – no dice. Grabbed the emergency matches – the first one snapped in two, and the next five would not light. Finally, the sound guy got one from the second box to ignite, and off we went… and then the organ wouldn’t play… You tell me what was going on there…
Possibly it was empty/old supplies and a broken organ?
-or-
You were lucky a portal to Hell didn’t open up in the floor and swallow you!!
Bob B, I heavily suggest you receive an exorcism asap.
The Emu can be subtle in his fiendishness.
Burritos don’t count. Once eaten they become animate objects, moving at will to their final resting place.
Only my animated objects are demonically possessed.
Don’t buy a Pentastar V6. It’s right there in the G. D. name and I should have known better.
Had an ’87 Wrangler with the V-6, pre Pentastar, but just as evil. Damn thing would randomly shut the engine off while driving. Literally just cruising down the road all-good, then coasting. Would sometimes restart after a couple seconds, sometimes after a good 20-30 minutes and 3 good samaritans stopping to ask if you need a jump (which was tried a few times but made no difference). Had several experienced mechanics look at it, never could find the problem.
How do we rate Murphy’s Law, then?
The one that gets me the most I call ‘Murphy’s Law of Wires.’ You install them carefully. They’re all straight and untangled, neat and tidy. Come back in three months. WTF?!!! Who/what did this???
Every single government issued computer I have ever used. Maybe not possesed by demons, maybe just by Russians or Chinese or crap from the lowest bidder supported by inept IT people also from the lowest bidder. Either way, after some days, whether the computer was actually posessed by demons or not, you’d think I was by the look of pure hatred and loathing and violence in my eyes.
^ Same experience with Micro$oft junk. 🤬
Nissan trucks. Which fall apart. 😬😬😬😬
Whatever small thing I’m trying to pick up off the floor.
You can’t be too careful with loose Legos on the deck…
One of my ex girlfriends was an inanimate object possessed by a demon. Or so it seemed.
Every employee I ever met at the DMV. They all handled their jobs like inanimate objects, and all were demon possessed.
Red hair! The living hell it causes when inexplicably interwoven into my socks.
^ Or bathroom sink or tub drain traps! Women should be banned from bathrooms! (C’mon, women, start arguing with Jimmy! Where are you? Come out. Come out, wherever you are…)
Why would you invite an argument? Get a hobby that involves bourbon/beer in a location not frequented by the conjurer of the possessed inanimate objects. You can unclog the drain as you pass through for a hot meal and clean laundry.
^ Why? To make female readers identify themselves and start commenting, i.e., liven up the joint.
“I once had a burrito that, well, lemme tell you . . .”
Was it a dicey breakfast burrito and did you then take an Imodium? (TV reference for the culturally uninformed.)
(BTW, don’t take Imodiums. They are linked to esophageal cancer.)
I’ve just noticed — fitted sheets work against me as often as they work with me.
Get a square bed.
I once had an object disappear from the passenger seat of my car when I went around a corner. It was like I turned into an alternate Universe.
(No, it wasn’t my ex-wife flying out the door. But hey. Lemme think on this for future applications.)
