.....EXorcism....

[Christine]

" Exorcism is the religious practice of evicting demons or other spiritual entities from a person or place which they are believed to have possessed. Depending on the spiritual beliefs of the exorcist, this may be done by causing the entity to swear an oath, performing an elaborate ritual, or simply by commanding it to depart in the name of a higher power. The practice is quite ancient and part of the belief system of many cultures and religions..... "

I suppose if you believe in God you would have to believe in the practice of exorcism carried out by some priests as being a viable form of as they say casting out evil...that is if you have unquestioning faith in the practices of the Catholic church..two very good movies on the subject of exorcism would be the most popular one..lol The Exorcist and The Exorcism of Emily Rose which was based on actual events...for me i would be a bit skeptical as regards exorcism,possessions etc because I would think a lot of the cases could be down to neurological disorders rather then the belief the person is possessed by an otherworldly entity...

Reference, please, Professor?

Whether or not you believe in exorcism, or whether or not you have a religion, doesn't change the fact that humans have been combatting "evil spirits" since time immemorial. Whether it's a bushman witchdoctor, a tribal shaman, a voodoo houngan, or a Christian exorcist, every culture has these kinds of supernatural rituals. Science and rationalism seem to be unseating these ancient customs, but every age has had its dark magic - what's the difference these days between a curse and a cursor?

Yes, but do you know who this "leading Irish theologian" was? I mean, there can't be too many of them.
