Then you have the really stubborn demons who just will not budge, and may not even talk. It is with this kind that I say, "Do you want to go in THE BOX?" In most cases, the demon will say NO, or he will shake the person's head back and forth, meaning NO.
Here is a typical setting for this kind of demon.
If you don't want to go in THE BOX, then I command you to leave now, in the name of Jesus. Most of the time they do.
I am going to count to ten, then I am going to put you in THE BOX.
One, two, three, four...... They usually wait till you get to ten, then go.

So, this is the strategy which works with those stubborn demon children who haven't yet leart they are expected to fear the name of Jesus, as they were.. um, spawned so recently. I suppose some divine entity at a demon school or kindergarten will eventually teach them that as demons they are not supposed to pull pranks, but be nice little demons and obey their boss Jesus.
I have to admit: This reads a bit less immature when you read it in context. It's still crazy, but slightly less immature, as they actually try to establish that imaginary boxes are real to demons.
And heck, it makes sense that an imaginary demon would be afraid of imaginary boxes, doesn't it?
Ahhh, a red snapper. Mmmmm, very tasty. Okay, Weaver, listen carefully. You can hold on to your red snapper or you can go for what's in the box that Hiro-San is bringing down the aisle right now! What's it gonna be?
I'll take the box. The box!
You took the box? Let's see what's in the box! Nothing! Absolutely nothing! STUPID! You're so STU-PIIIIIIIIIIID!
Carr: Them clothes got laundry numbers on them. You remember your number and always wear the ones that has your number. Any man forgets his number spends a night in the box. These here spoons you keep with you. Any man loses his spoon spends a night in the box. There's no playing grab-ass or fighting in the building. You got a grudge against another man, you fight him Saturday afternoon. Any man playing grab-ass or fighting in the building spends a night in the box. First bell's at five minutes of eight when you will get in your bunk. Last bell is at eight. Any man not in his bunk at eight spends the night in the box. There is no smoking in the prone position in bed. To smoke you must have both legs over the side of your bunk. Any man caught smoking in the prone position in bed... spends a night in the box. You get two sheets. Every Saturday, you put the clean sheet on the top... the top sheet on the bottom... and the bottom sheet you turn in to the laundry boy. Any man turns in the wrong sheet spends a night in the box. No one'll sit in the bunks with dirty pants on. Any man with dirty pants on sitting on the bunks spends a night in the box. Any man don't bring back his empty pop bottle spends a night in the box. Any man loud talking spends a night in the box. You got questions, you come to me. I'm Carr, the floor walker. I'm responsible for order in here. Any man don't keep order spends a night in...
Luke: ...the box.

I know this is different in other cultures, but isn't nodding generally considered a sign of agreement in the Western parts of the world?
Confused?
