Some demon possessed people even go to church ...or synagogue.
Not all demon (demo) possessed people try to injure or kill themselves. Some even go to church ....or synagogue ....as did the man that Jesus encountered in the synagogue. One of the definitions of 'demon' is a spiritual being ( i.e. a spiritual belief) that influenced a person's character. What spiritual belief did the Jew (who was "possessed by it" ) welcome and embrace? Perhaps it was the belief that comes from the latin root of 'demo', as in demo-crasy,....which proclaims "FREEDOM" of self -rule, self interest, self desires, to serve and magnify oneself. What do some people do when they cannot have what they want to have? Some injure themselves in some way, and some commit suicide. Does not the devil belief in this "FREEDOM" to serve and magnify oneself, even claiming himself to be equal to / higher as 'God'? Is not the devil the ruler of the earth at this time? There were "demon possessed" people in Jesus's time. Imagine how many there are now in this age of mankind which loves and worships "FREEDOM" to define good & evil in its own eyes and has placed this "FREEDOM" above the 1God and His Holy Mountain.
