    So, if we assume he's been performing exorcisms since he was 20 (generous guess) he's averaged 3 exorcisms a day in the last 65 years, that's also assuming he's worked 7 days a week and never taken a day off.

    Yeah, sure. :rolleyes:

    EDIT: somewhat beaten to it

    Maybe he means "dealt with" in the same way they meant with all the child abuse stuff, ie swept it under the carpet.

    Yeah, we had a dance in the pale moonlight. Very romantic, haven't seen him since though... bastard.

    Foosball IS the Devil.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,368 ✭✭✭Smart Bug


    Do i believe in the Devil?

    No, Evil yes.


    You believe in evil as in some supernatural force called (or termed as) Evil? Or you believe that evil exists in people/things?

    Cos there's a difference. A big fukkin difference.

    It's like saying I believe in Gravity. I've just ascribed a persona to a non-sentient force. You dig?

    I met him at a crossroads.
    He taught me blues guitar

    I doubt Satan takes days off though.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,496 ✭✭✭Mr. Presentable


    OP, possibly.........

    How come the devil is still male? Feminazis have laid claim to god being female, how is it they don't recognise how much more they have in common with the devil than they do god and assimilate him/her into their mileu?

    Funny how all of a suddent there's talk of the devil in the vatican just as his book is being released. if paedophillia, rape and murder are the hallmarks of Old nick emself and if that's to be believed then sure he's in every church and church run institution we can think of. Their all run by sadists. so no big surprise her, and there are the ones we know of. If the iceberg theory is anything to go by, imagine what they've successfully covered up.

    Perhaps the only thing stupider than believing in the devil is believing an all loving and all powerful god would allow him to exist.
