There is a girl I know who is an atheist. Yet she believes in exorcisms; which are used "to expel (an evil spirit) by adjuration or religious or solemn ceremonies: to exorcise a demon." (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/exorcise) So she believes that demons exist...but she doesn't believe in angels or the goodness of God?
How can this be? You can't have evil without good, if you did it wouldn't be evil, it would be reality. So it confused me. How can you say you believe in one thing without believing in the other? If I said I believe in life, then obviously I must believe in death. If I believe in light, then obviously there must be dark. The sun, the moon. Good, evil.
Our world is so full of opposites, and without them there would be no world. You must have one thing to have the other. Thus, when she says she believes in demons, then she must believe in angels/good?
