In an astounding display of charlatanism, the Catholic church, to this very day, still performs several hundred exorcisms per year. How sad is it that in 2009, people are still attributing symptoms of mental illness to actual demons that can be ritualized away!
That got me to thinking...
Do demons only infest Catholics, or might Muslims get infested by demons as well?
Might this account for Muslim suicide bombers?
Do Muslim imams have the power to exorcise demons, or would they need to refer their followers to a Catholic priest?
Do Catholic priests refuse the rite of Exorcism to non-Catholics, as they do Communion?

If you don't believe in demons possesing people you should go see it for yourself.

I can't define demon, the only thing I know is that there is a lot of stuff science can't explain (regarding the supernatural), so I wouldn't be so quick to judge.

yep , i hear ya, but i wasn't judging just saying that maybe this topic opens up more wounds than it may heal-or-give rise to more questions than answers

because thats what he should do, he can't judge something he doesn't even know or hasn't experienced.
