Independent Order of Exorcists Runs Online Demon-Busting Service as Vatican Faces Mounting Demand

When I originally read this headline (see article here), my first impression was this had to have been a complete 'exorcism' done over the Internet. Meaning, no one would see you personally, and everything was completed online.

Thankfully I read the entire article, and realized that yes, they do indeed send people out to your home, after having received information and some evidence. Being a Theology student, exorcism's are something I have always found very fascinating, despite the fact there are some whom are 'quacks.' Spiritual warfare, and the devil (and evil) due indeed exist.

With the usefulness of the Internet, now people are also able to 'meet' with a therapist online ($42.00 week!), and also have access to a medical doctor (for minor routine situations as well online, who can even write out prescriptions for you and have them sent to your local pharmacy. Again, with respect to the medical doctor, that is more so for simple things, and do not expect any special type of medications being called in for you, only basic medications.

But, in all 3 examples, I can see this as being a plus, or move in the right direction at least for certain situations. I have heard of those needing an exorcist whom have found a very difficult time (not personally, but through stories) only to not find even many clergyman who believe in a devil, let alone the paranormal, or any need of exorcism.


                                                  'Order of Exorcists'

In cases of a therapist, or need for a medical doctor, having online access can be at the least a time saving action, and even a distance saving factor for those living a long way from such persons. So the Internet is making some good uses for the general public. For me personally, research has been my biggest use of the Internet, as playing games, or 'social media' are not very big on my list. Unfortunately, information from a certain political vantage has been coming under extreme attack, and for American's regardless of your political leanings, this should be something of grave concern to all. Because if they can silence one side, who's to say another person comes into power and silences the other side?

So, don't fall into apathy with all the talk and goings on about some being censored for being on one side of the political fence, but next if could be your side! The 1st amendment is a precious thing and should not be taken for granted, no matter where you fit in politically. We are also one of a few nations with, if not the only one with a 'first amendment right.' Don't allow anyone to censor your voice.
