    I saw this tonight on my local news and thought it to be very disturbing. The video was removed by the Church that posted it, but it was a so called "exorcism" of a young gay teen. The video shows a minister performing an exorcism which leads the teen to have convulsions, seizures, and vomiting. How sickening. I can't believe people still do this :frowning2:

    its just so disheartening
     
  5. I'm not surprised people still attempt it. If there's one thing ignorance has prove, it's its longevity.

    Gay demons are the most fabulous kind there are.

    Sick, though. Can't believe people living in 2009 are still like this. What next, witch hunts?

    I think this is another link to the video

    What bothers me the most is that there are nurses standing and allowing the lady to put stuff in his face to make him throw up the demon, let him openly convulse on the floor and also let him openly convulse while he is being manhandeld.

    My brother used to always say he could "beat the gay" out of someone.

    So it goes without saying, i never came out to him :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: someone blabbed it to him. Thankfully, he was all talk. He never tired to beat me up to un-gay me. Seeing stories like this in the news from time to time though kind of made me think he was serious...

    Excorcisem is the cruelest joke of fundementalist religion... other then pat robertson's claim that he can leg press 1000 pounds in his 70's.

    excorcisem is based solely in superstition, and is now used as a cash making scam by fundementalist preachers. People who preformed excorcist are not christians. religion teaches you have to be responcible for your actions and choices. excorcisem contradicts that, and allows you to blame something that doesnt exist for your actions and the choices you make. churches like this charge money for their excorcisems.

    one time I watched a tv show on excorcisems, and it had this woman, toothless, and looked very clearly to be someone who has spent their entire life doing drugs, because she looked about 40 years older then she said she was. she had gotten a cold a few days earlier, and a preacher excorcised a cold demon from her for a fee of 25 bucks. she talked about how she did this frequently.

    then there was another guy who was like "a demon posessed me and made me beat my wife and put her in the hospital. I am here to expell the demon"

    these people are useing it as a crutch, and the churches use it to make money. the sad thing is, even though its been proven dangerous and unhealthy, it is protected under freedom of religion.

    This is one of the reasons why I turn to The Craft nowadays, it does not differentiate between sexuality, it does not use demons as a crutch, it just promotes freedom, and I feel free whilst practicing it. That and every witch is responsible for their own actions, and the laws of the earth hold us to that.

    This is so wrong on so many levels, I really feel for that boy. If the Christian God did exist, he must be absolutely heartless to allow that to happen to one of his children, the Great Goddess would have seven fits (metaphorically speaking) if that were to happen to one of her children.

    In my opinion, God, if there is one, doesn't control people. People control themselves. Even the idiots, sadly.

    When I was younger, I thought God and Satan existed for people to use as an excuse for everything they did, whether it be "good" or "evil", whatever the hell that means.

    they're all on crack. they just have to be...

    I didn't realize that they did public exorcisms.
