Proof that christians are sane and non delusional

AMA warning after Christian group Set Right performs exorcisms on two-year-old

http://www.news.com.au/national/ama-warning-after-christian-group-set-right-perf...

Quote:

-Group says mental illness means demonic possession
-Claims to have performed exorcisms on small children
-Doctors say no substitute for professional care

Shocking that doctors would say that.

Quote:

Retired WA Police Chaplain Father Barry May says the Catholic Church is too slow to perform exorcisms. Picture: Richard Hatherly

Ex police and a nut job.

Quote:

EXORCISTS who say depression and schizophrenia are demons that can be cast out, are treating children as young as two for possession, a claim the Australian Medical Association has dismissed as unscientific and potentially harmful.

Quote:

Perth-based Set Right is a non-denominational Christian ministry. Their Leader, known as ‘Apostle’ Michelle Pecoult, says they’ve seen a “massive rise” in possessions, and now exorcise four or five people a day. She said people find them online and through psychic fairs and they also visit schools and prisons.

Big business I see.

'The United States of Tara'

I do not watch that show.

To me, the popularity of such a show say's a lot about us [about our spiritual ignorance].

And i find it sad [and revealing], that many people today would find such a 'presentation' entertaining.

And it reveals what we, collectively, don't commonly recognise [that we refuse to acknowledge].

That what Multiple Personality Disorder [MPD] is portraying [in the UST]
.....is demon possession.

You don't believe that there are demons ?

OK.

That is your path.

Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Regards demons and demon possession, i came across this interesting post [a couple of years back], on the ABC ENOUGHROPE online forum....

Quote:

"From: Lucy 7/04/2008 11:10:15 PM
Subject: re: Has anyone connected belief with mental illness? post id: 1379

My son has schizophrenia and believes that the goodness of Christianity has saved him. Since reading the bible he no longer sees demons- if the demons ever reappear he reads the bible again and prays and the angels save him. How can I argue with that? better to be saved by an angel than tormented by a demon. That is how he lives with it. I should mention that prior to his illness he was not religious."

http://www2b.abc.net.au/enoughrope/forum2/archives/archive8/newposts/1/topic1934...

IMO, Lucy's account reveals good advice.
...for spiritual protection [from demons], read the Bible, and pray [ask God to protect you].

IMO, reading the Bible is a form of spiritual invocation.

But those who hate God are too 'clever' to believe that. Grin

Yadda, we are talking about fairy tales here quoting from a fiction book only proves further more that it is a fairy tale.

No it isn’t Yadda, what you are seeing is a placebo effect.

And he is QUITE correct

After I saw "The Exorsist" a few times, I invested in a mobile

"Jim's Exorcisms"

franchise

It's a VERY lucrative venture !

I’m in, how much?
And will the church pay off victims’ families if the person I exorcised dies because I mislead them into thinking I could help?
