Promiscuity causes demonic possession!
I got this off the atheist knitting forum:

Why do you think we serve so much pea-soup at our dinner parties?

Not that promiscuity is caused by demon-possession?
Ah, of course not! This way, they get to blame YOU for being demon-possessed. Nice double whammy there from the RCC.

The worst part about all of this is the insidious dehumanization of homosexuals. If they're posessed, they're not real people to love, care about or respect.

I disagree Loss Leader - I think the worse part of this is the demonisation of homosexuals...

Just goes to show that if you love pornography or big-burly men (and also happen to be a man) the best way to deal with this is to have another man splash your face with holy juice while shouting the name of the lord.

Don’t forget that to the RCC paedophiles are homosexuals, this is just another out on the whole priests abusing children thing. It wasn’t their fault they abused kids, they were possessed by a demon. It wouldn’t surprise me if those US priests underwent some sort of exorcism to ‘fix’ them before they were shunted to another parish.
To abuse again of course, those demons are hard to shake I guess. |

Is that a demon in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

Westminster Exorcist Says Promiscuity can Lead to Demonic Possession
Apparently I was late to the game.
Just makes me shake my head. |

I the interests of scientific research I propose that we need to increase our personal promiscuity with chosen parterns(it would appear to be better if the increase was with same sex partners but it is not needed) and see how many of us get possesed by demons.
Who is with me? |

Well, I don't want to increase my promiscuity. I rather like monogamy, but that's my own personal choice. However the article also says:

One of my (many) wake up calls was when we were having our bipolar son evaluated. They seemed concerned that we might think he was possessed by demons.
Articles like that amaze me that people think with the same minds that can come up with that stuff. There is an atheist knitting forum?

I can't believe you're all avoiding the real topic of the existence of an atheist knitting forum! What about all those poor atheists who are being knitted, sewed, and crocheted? Won't someone please think of the atheists!?

You can't blame the RCC for standing behind what it states as "facts". Blame them for their hypocrisy, certainly, but they've held that God, angels, Satan and demons have existed all along. This has been as "true" for the RCC in 1508 as it is in 2008 and will be in 2508.
