# Demoniac Activity

Because their mentality is so corrupt, demons repeatedly disregard spiritual wisdom and beneficial counsel. They dedicate themselves to unbeneficial acts which destroy their own well-being, cause suffering to others, and generate unrest in the world. Consciously or unconsciously, they engage in works which are painful, exploitative and destructive. They justify their approach with empty arguments and fallacious logic, actively convincing others to follow in their footsteps.
