" The tendency to polarize the material and spiritual dimensions produces disagreement over whether demonic influence or mental disorders account
for unusual human behavior. This disagreement has a long history, and continues both inside and outside the Christian church. It will be our goal to examine both sides of this issue, to suggest that mental disorders and demonic influence are related, and to recommend ways to identify and treat persons
experiencing demonic involvement."
