You know why this always happens in the US, Africa, or South America, but never in Europe, Canada, or Australia? Because those places have free and extensive healthcare, and someone would actually look into cases of "demonic" behavior and ruin the hoax.
[QUOTE=Saxon;43711604]Read to the end of the article TLDR; the mother was crazy and encouraging the kids to act out in this manner and social services took them away at which point they stopped.[/QUOTE] Shame would have been way cooler if this was in fact legit and demons started showing up and possessing people and a giant war between heaven and hell erupted

Otherwise it just makes you look like a jackass. [editline]30th January 2014[/editline] Actually just leave the bible thrashing out of threads in general.

There's always the issue that demons only ever seem to possess people who have religious beliefs involving demonic possession, they never seem to go after atheists.

CAN'T EXPLAIN THAT

Good on the PDF for reporting this incident, unfortunately he's already been tainted and will have to purged.

[editline]30th January 2014[/editline] Actually just leave the bible thrashing out of threads in general.[/QUOTE] No. I refuse to respect people who push this nonsense superstition in place of actual medical attention. Imagine if these children actually had serious conditions, and the mother/policeman just said "well, we'd better bring them to the local priest for an exorcism." They'd go without proper treatment and either seriously injure themselves or die. And guess what? That is exactly what has happened for tens of thousands of years, and still happens today. Nobody should sit around and let people like Zenreon or this policeman spread very dangerous lies just because you don't want to offend Christians or something. If Zenreon had said that the children had some sort of fake disease that he made up, would I have to respect his post? That's exactly what he's doing when he asserts that demonic possession is a valid theory. It's 100% quackery in place of actual medicine. In this case, it appears that the children had no problems at all but were being abused by their mother. What if Zenreon had said "they actually have flyatamriosis, a rare condition. Treat them with these powerful drugs. How do I know this? It's in my personal manual that my society follows." Would you respect that type of behavior for a second? No, it deserves "bashing" to the highest degree.

I mean seriously, look at your reaction, and look at what I said. [QUOTE=Zenreon117;43715648]I don't discount it as a logical possibility, but at the same time It would take a lot of circumstances for me to believe in a particular case. This one, for example, I am agnostic about and frankly am leaning towards hoax. You however might not be agnostic, and simply assert hoax.[/QUOTE] So no, I wouldn't recommend exorcism over medical attention, but you seem to like assuming things about people so have fun with that.

That means there could be a scenario, in your mind, where an exorcism should be the prescribed treatment. If it's a possibility, then it is a real condition, so you would recommend an exorcism, correct?

Wouldn't you?

Wouldn't you?[/QUOTE] Why would I ever call a priest for anything? If there was a situation where the laws of physics were seemingly breaking, I'd call a magician. He could probably tell me what kind of trickery was being performed.

On the other hand, an exorcist would probably just say "oh fuck oh fuck what the fuck is that uhhh jesus help us or something, fuck this i'm out"

He didn't bring up Christianity, he didn't bring up the Christian bible, he didn't bring ANY of that up. [i]You[/i] did. How about I follow you into a game thread and bring up your blatant hatred of someone who doesn't even post there? Because that makes about as much sense as you just arbitrarily attacking him for something from a different thread that he didn't even bring up. Oh and if you think I actually like Christianity and "don't want to offend Christians", you're INCREDIBLY mistaken. I was pulling for that Satanist group to get their statue beside the Christian statue that got put up in front of the Oklahoma Capitol building.
