There must be a logical explanation, but so far no one has been able to provide a convincing one. All participants seem to be genuine. I have seen exorcisms performed on individuals who didn't believe they were possessed. Is the power of suggestion really that powerful? It would be great if Derren could perform an exorcism in one of his shows and then explain how it works. He's the man. I have been watching a lot of these things lately.

All it takes is Gods love" Then why won\'t god heal amputees? And why did we ever bother inventing doctors? It was antiseptics and medicine which brought the child mortality rate down from 30% to less than 0.6% in the UK, not prayer. “At this church you’ll find allsorts of people healed and delivered sickness and the like.

I guess they’re easier to ridicule…" Irony: adj. Sort of like iron. Seriously, though: EVERYONE has an inner nutter. Atheists are just the ones who don't let him have the car keys. “Why do all kinds of media only show the religious nutters, and not the “normal” ones? I guess they’re easier to ridicule…”

Some people are just stupid and believe in the unrealistic. They've been brought up to believe this BS instead of using their own brains to find logical solutions. Relegion is wrong.

Is she just faking it, or did she actually manage to convince herself that there was a demon living in her? If she was really possessed, why did the demon let her go to an exorcism? Why didn't he make her say "I'm fine now, goodbye.", then go out and massacre a bunch of people. If demons really existed and could actually posses people, something tells me there would be a lot more violent crime in the world. honestly… how do people get sucked into this sort of thing?

You wonder . what is so hard about seeing it more normal? But maybe they cant, living in a different culture/world. It's a shame that those things still happen.
