I find exorcisms disgusting on two fronts. For one, the idea that demons exist is the type of thing that only four year-olds should believe. Secondly, as Beccs said, these people that are being "exorcised" are mentally ill and need real treatment, not a bunch of grown men that believe in fairy tales standing around trying to cast out Lucifer's minions with magic words. It's abuse of people with serious illnesses.

Quite frankly, I don't take anyone seriously that believes in this garbage.
