The Vatican is launching a new international exorcism training course in response to a growing demand for priests skilled in tackling demonic possession.
A week-long course on exorcism will be held in April at the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum, a Catholic educational institute in Rome.
In 2011, the Catholic Church warned that a surge in Satanism, facilitated by the internet, had led to a sharp rise in the demand for exorcism, and a six-day conference on the subject took place at the institute.

The church are crazy.

When you act like an arsehole and you refuse to be accountable for it, a convenient excuse would be to blame it on demons.
I think if the Church charged €1,000 say for exorcism services then they'd see a significant decrease in such cases.

Impressive that they can condense it into a week, wonder do you get the Sunday off?

I don't know lads. A week. Sounds awful ambitious.

I mean there is so much to cover. Even the whole process of where to put the demons after you have exorcised them could take a half a week of training alone.

I can't explain it in a short post, but the short answer is you put them in pigs. Then you drown the pigs. Sounds cruel. But ask yourself - what would Jesus do.

Priests are brainwashed with this stuff. They think they can turn water into wine,banish demons and God knows what other superpowers they think they're endowed with.
Holy water is another one,they bless water and it gains special powers. No wonder they're screwed up.
