Exorcisms

http://www.latimes.com/la-fg-exorcist30apr30,1,255014.story La Times ran an article on exorcism and the Catholic Church last Friday-- it's a really interesting read. One doesn't really think about the Vatican having a "top exorcist" all that often. I was rather surprised to hear that the Pope himself has conducted 3 excorcisms since 2000. I don't see any reason not to believe in demon posession (save that I've never seen someone I could clearly call possessed). Sort of an amazing job -- you go to work, 9 to 5 and have appoinments, where you regularly encounter the minions of evil.
