My Favorite actor is Sir Anthony Hopkins. So I am really looking forward to this loosely based on true story of a priest who has preformed over 1000 exorcisms became possessed himself. Begging the question does being around evil eventually turn us evil?
Going to see it this weekend.

Seen "The Rite" today movie was very good.. Hit on alot of topics we face, Including why cant a person be both mentally challenged and possessed? Instead of one or the other? Makes perfect sence if you think about it. I mean where has to be some kind of instablity for a peson to be possessed in the first place or there would be way more possession then there is. Although I believe in exhausting every other possiblity before going to the Possessed card.

Begging the question does being around evil eventually turn us evil? Going to see it this weekend. I think its the same as working with any population. Given the right circumstances anyone can become influenced by their surroundings. Working with serial killers , rapists, etc.. can be wearying. Guards fall in love with prisoners, murderers are somehow cultivated from proximity to another, a thief is born from opportunity.... The question for me is how do you work at fighting evil continuously lifelong only to be tripped up in a moment of weariness or distraction?

Never let your gaurd down. knowing who you are and having self identity being aware of your surroundings. The Bible says "To be a Wise Steward". Minister and theology major once told me if you have God in your heart what evil can dwell there? This particular Priest who the movie was based on did so many exorcisms that he in his own mind became the "One who was removing them" he became a God or a spiritual divination rod of removal.. So in his case "Pride" one of the most clever sins..

I can't wait to go and see this one. I also LOVE Sir Anthony Hopkins... AWESOME Man, AWESOME Actor!! I did see him and John Zaffas on the Piers Morgan show a couple of weeks ago. I wish John would have had more time to discuss his experiences with possessions, etc. Anyone else see that interview???

Here is the link to that show. John Zaffas again said this was not someone "practising anything" It is all fun and games untill someone starts practising the craft. Oh and Demonics brings cancer? well any kind of stress on the body can bring sickness. But he is making himself sound like a crack pot. I also didnt feel this woman was possessed just maybe had some kind of a break down. I do not understand John Zaffis is motivation seriously. I do not know if maybe he lost his way. I just get a little weary of anyone connected to the Warrens. Maybe because I can see alot of my own family in them. Gypsies learned how to manipulate a persons beliefs to scare them into giving cash. In such a way that the Gypsy could not be seen as a Thief because it was a donation.
