Many mystical creatures are demons shape-shifting throughout history. If the creature is "metaphysical", has special powers, etc, then watch out! Leprechauns, Gnomes, Elves, Fairies, Goblins

I guess when you believe in a little bit of mythical nonsense, it makes it easier to believe in other mythical nonsense.
It's like I've said before, the more you have to invoke magic to prove something, the less likely it is to be true.

Wouldn't 'mystical metaphysical creature with special powers' also be a description that applies to god? Does this mean god is a shapeshifting demon timetraveller too?
Way to ruin most of folk literature, worldwide! BB, just because you are fiction-deaf and metaphor-blind, most of the world's people are not, and can enjoy a good fairy tale. Don't play the grinch and make a fool of yourself, ruining folk stories and trivializing the bible at the same time.

Use of Kitsune & Changelings. Your argument is valid . b^_^d
Leprechauns, Gnomes, Elves , Fairies, Goblins
I thought it said Elvis. Ha.
"Leprechauns, Gnomes, Elves, Fairies, Goblins."
(singing) These are a few of my favorite things...
When I get around to my dream of writing a fantasy epic, i will most definitely not put the creatures you mentioned into the category of "demons". There are plenty of creatures that are actually demons in mythology, such as Ghouls for example. Ghouls are actually demons from Arabic mythology that eat the dead and steal from their corpses. They have been conflated with the undead in general in many recent works but I plan on writing them closer to the source.
“If the creature is "metaphysical",”
What does this mean, a metaphysical creature?
Metaphysical refers to things that are beyond reality.
A Leprechaun has (allegedly) metaphysical powers, but the creature will still bitch if you kick him.
"has special powers,”
I can wiggle my ears. My wife cannot. That’s special. Shit, I’m a demon.
Or is my power human, her inability is what’s ‘special’?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
