Richard Beck has been posting a series on Idolatry, Oppression and the Development of Demons. He has just posted part six. To read from the beginning (recommended), here is one, two, three, four and five.
He has made some great observations regarding the way scriptural evidence sends us, rather than as tradition has often made us assume. The posts are short and informative, especially if it is an area you haven't thought about much.
Also, Kurt Willems (from the Paulcast) interviewed Greg Boyd on the subject of "Spiritual Warfare." Greg talks about how he dealt academically with the evidence presented, especially when unexpectedly coming face to face with a real spiritual force.
Kurt also blogs at Patheos.

Ground-rules for comments:
1) Identify yourself by observing social decorum and use your real name.
2) Please stick to the subject of the post. Introducing extraneous issues makes it confusing for everyone.
3) Relevant queries, informed comments and disagreement are welcomed, but don't use this as a soap-box to vent your pet views or to simply to be obnoxious.
4) State your query concisely and make your comment with regard for other readers.
5) Be honorable and avoid insults and slurs, and focus on engagement with the issues and data. Comments with personal attacks or insults will not be tolerated. Refutation, declaring an error, all welcome and appropriate, but keep it polite and fair.
