Maybe God was testing you or maybe they were demons:) I had my runs with demons so although I am not an expert I know they can be deceitful. Anyway I always think that if God allows it probably he trust I will be savvy to put up with them, not that I call on them or have anything to do with them, they messed up with me because I was defending spiritually one of my sons who was opening portals during his years at the Uni, but he was into new Age (that girlfriend he had) and hallucinogens, he was experimenting a lot. The experiences were very awful and I do not share this lightly because few people are strong enough or without fear, but I can see that you are are strong in your faith and have some knowledge of the spiritual world. Without irony I can say that these "inter-dimensional spirits" got me closer to the Father not the opposite, they also show me the feeling of hell, and it was for few seconds if not I would died right there, It is total despair, but it cannot be described with humans words the closer I can say is that I experienced a place without hope, and it is horrible! In the other hand I realized that this realm is plenty of hope, hope is everywhere and hope and love holds the world still. After those experiences and another paranormal phenomena in the house and also my husband experiences strange occurrences we looked for Father more, because who is the only one these spirits respect?? Only the true God, not Allah, not the jesus of the mormons, neither any jewish sect on existence, etc. Who is the one that Lucifer has to obey and bow in His present not for his own accord but because is what it is. I never really understood how Lucifer being so powerful and smart thought that he could go against God and being an angel he knew more about God than we do. Another question I have for Father or Jesus when I finally meet them, I have so many questions! My best friend is a muslim but a losy one, she doesn't know much about it and she believes like the pope that all religions are path to God, I used to be an universalist too but then I was thinking about it and wonder why Jesus came to show us the truth and went through all that horror of the Crucifixion to make what point, exactly? was He a masochist? I do not believe so. Or we are the only real religion or we are not a religion but the path to the fther and eternal life. I would have many arguments to tell these islamists but I never had the pleasure to meet any, only one in Switzerland in Pilatus peak. he did the 5 pm prayer and kneel and I stood up on his side, took out my Rosary and started to pray to. We have rights, so the guy left after a minute. One of the things I always clarified when they say these truths, that they are very confused about christians, it is truth that specially catholics do not pray enough or know enough of anything, the church of the last 100 years but they are not really christians only in name or because they are in Europe and Europe was created under Christendom but people are not christians if they dont pray or go to mass or live the commandments, they are not, i don't care how they perceive themselves. I am always assertive in these clarifications with other "religions". I wasn't a christian less a catholic so I never said that until I was sure that I would die for it, but people who knew me in my youth and my years of debauchery would have said so that I was a catholic but that "I didn't practice the faith". It is laughable really, how I am a catholic if I do not practice the faith? What it is to be a catholic? It looks like is like a nobility title for the most part. Be accurate is very important in these times of confusion, neither I dare to say I am catholic, I say "I am in the process to be one" just in case my behavior doesn't reflect that. I wouldn't dare to stain my faith, probably I should say I am a practicing catholic but not a good one or still in process. That is why people like you in the streets are important, you are where is need it, in contact with others. Jesus was scold because he sat with the sinners but where else he would be? It has sense. We don't convert Father does, but you saw maybe a seed in some of the islamists (why you called them that and not muslim), probably they are easy to convert that some Protestants or jewish people. Who knows, you are there puting the good word in the Lord's behave so continue and God bless you!!

Ah, ok, I thought so, when we talk about Islamists are more radical than the people that are simple muslims because they borne in a Muslim country or do not have interest in any jihad, but of course they should convert, that is what I tell them, that is the best option. Now the good thing about my muslim friends is that they know Jesus and they know Mary as the Mother of Jesus, so we always have that thing in common and knowing the story of Mahommed helps to argue with them, also the argument about the age of the bride of the prophet is not really an issue of the age but of the development of girl bodies and the pain he had inflicted in Fatima, so you give them the look as they would do that too. It is believed that Mahoma had concepts of Nestorianism because his cousin or somebody close to him was a nestoriam, now he made a soup with it because he was a soldier and wanted to united the people and what best way to do it than religion? He wanted to control lands for his 'kingdom". ISIS and all the other terrorists groups are control by the evil powers of this world, fanatics are very easy to control, that is the difference between a sect and a religion, I can talk about everything as a catholic I do not have to follow anybody neither the Pope if he doesn't follow Jesus Christ, that is the good thing to have a doctrine, we don't follow people that oppose that sound doctrine because it is based in Jesus teachings. So as St Paul said we must be very careful neither to believe him if he comes with something different, in this times we need to focus in our Lord, he is standing alone now, in the high seats of power, of course He is not alone, there millions of us that love Him and try to do His will. As I told a protestant once, the church is not the buildings, in spite I love them we are not the buildings of the art or anything we had produced in God's honor. The church is mystical in its body and it is trascendant, and for sure it is not the evil people inside the church. God gave us intellect and memory and freewill, those are His own characteristics and that is why we are made to His image, he gave us those things not to be fanatics or robots but to choose good and understand why good is better than evil and also to recognize evil for what it is and who is We are living fantastic times because evil is not hidden anymore, who has eyes should see.
