Well, I could but I don't know if I should... |

First of all, cool that you cut your ties with any religious institute and have your own view on god and such. Must haven been hard growing up, and letting that go. |

Well, it depends on how bad the parish is. Just how long was the suggestion that people might be possessed in the parish floating around? Long enough to stress out suggestionable fearful parishioners to the point of developing ulcers and become stressed enough to fear that they were possessed and to act possessed (self hypnosis if you will)? |

I read your hint. It's funny I had an experience similar to ExoByte when I was doing some ghost hunting. Then I decided that most of it was in my head. It is extreamly easy to let things like that get the best of you and you can seriously alter your reality in ways you never thought possible. I think our minds are more powerful than we know. |

There are a number of probable explanations for the different exorcisms occurring as they did. As you said, exorcisms occur in many different cultures, and they're not always by such negative creatures as Christianity's demons. The methods of exorcism are not all the same either. |

I will NEVER AGAIN work with Wellness Tools, Bruce Gelerter, and the DreamMaker! I have to sue him. Email if you want to know more.
Well, There wasnt any food during the revial but I dont know if they ate prior to the service. I did actualy see only one person's vomit and it was black with yellow spots or chucks. My mother claims that all of them vomited black bile but I never saw that. I was in fact wanting to get the hell out of there so I did not observe as close as I now wish. Most of the time I was praying to be safe. I was realy freaked out. Anyway, my mom tends to embelish a bit so i wonder if that was exactly true. I am certain, however, that all of them vomited; I heard it. I am still haunted by that upchucking sound. *shivers* I wish I was never there. |

wow. I dont think of it as abuse because my parents were raising me the best they could and were doing what they thought was right however missguided. But you are right, catholics at least do exorsims away from the congregation. |

Well, if they voluntarily put you through mental anguish that stayed with you since childhood, then, you know… |

Well at least no one in this thread is telling me all of that crap was real. Still its hard to explain away. The consequences of being wrong in my assumptions could be eternally painful. On the other hand, I cannot follow any religion for no other reason than "fire insurance". |

In my experience, it is as real as you want it to be. Then again, why would someone sane want this to be real is the question. I, personally, don’t want to waste my life chasing demons knowing that, if my faith falters, I would be at risk. Science here I come. God accept my choice. |
