My point was not that the spirit attachment thing was not possible or even probable - but that, despite Alex's protests indicating that her dogma was no different from the Jesus thing or any other religious meme - she seemed unable to even consider other explanations or interpretations.Yes, but if her story is to be believed, this woman was not getting any help from conventional therapies. I am really reluctant to dismiss someone who can help someone that others could not.
The problem is that it is easy to 'explain' phenomena this way, but my feeling is that we know pitifully little about consciousness, and all possibilities should be on the table.
