It's kind of hard for me to apply the scale to some of the concepts and issues you've listed. There are several discussions to be had on just how to modify the scale so that it matches the topic. I'll play along on one though:
extra terrestrials: 3
As for your experiences with things demonic, wow. That caught my attention. I'd never want to pry into your personal stuff, but my wife and I used to be really into watching shows like Paranormal State. She's Catholic and has a strong belief, whereas I grew up in a non-denominational evangelical church. In college my views changed pretty radically, but I respect people of faith. This stuff has always fascinated me and my wife is always jumping on my case for being curious. She just doesn't want me to be wreckless. Out of respect for her, I don't mess around with dark things, but hearing people's personal anecdotes just tears my mind to pieces. In college I had a lot of friends who lacked spiritual alignments, but even some of them had their stories.
Anyway, I'm glad that you have found safety and security in your current belief.
