Did I Hit a Soft Spot...?

Ok, so it seems no one wants to talk about demons? Are we scared? If we talk about demons, does that make them real? Are we scared to make demons real? Do we just want to imagine God vs. Satan? No! Well, I don't. I like the thought that there are angels and demons, both vying for our souls. I don't believe Satan is omipresent (in all places at once) and so who does his work? Demons.
Just because we are God's children doesn't mean that we are safe from evil...

Demons All Over...

I've been reading the book 'The Screwtape Letters' by C.S. Lewis and I've been wondering about demons. Do they fight like in Frank Peretti's book, 'This Present Darkness', or do they wander around attached to people trying to get us to do wrong? We can't see them of course, but maybe we need to wonder where they hang out. I mean if you want to convert someone to a certain belief don't hang around where you know people already believe that, go out to where you can change people who don't believe the same as you. Wouldn't the same be true for demons? Why wouldn't they hang out in a Tim Hortons so that people who go in after Church won't talk about what the pastor preached about?
Distraction seems to be one of their best tactics and so wouldn't it be likly that they are in the common places where Christians hang out...?
