We all need to get more exorcise.

We all need to get more exorcise.
Borrowed from Skeptic.com:

Abdul Alhazred Wrote:US Exorcists: Demonic Activity on the Rise
National Catholic Register

Quote:INDIANAPOLIS — There is an alarming increase in demonic activity being reported by those who work in exorcism ministry, said the exorcist for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. Although steps are being taken to increase the number of exorcists, demand is still outpacing supply.

Father Vincent Lampert has been an exorcist for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis since 2005 and is the pastor at St. Malachy’s in Indianapolis. He trained at the North American College in Rome and assisted with more than 40 exorcisms with longtime Italian exorcist Father Carmine De Filippi. Although the identities of most exorcists are hidden, Father Lampert often gives talks to warn against evil and turn people toward the power of God.

In an interview with the Register, he said that he sees an increasing number of people involved in Satanic rituals and opening themselves up to evil.

... 

Actual demonic possessions are rare, however, Father Lampert explained. “I’ve only seen three possessions in the last three years, but there is also infestation, vexation and obsession.”

Still calling mental health issues "possession" in the 21st century.

Sad.

Ooh, exorcists, I wonder if I can get them to exorcise me, and in turn taint their souls Tongue

I would actually love for an exorcist to try exorcising me. That could entertain me all day.

RE: We all need to get more exorcise.
So, do they need more pigs to put the evil spirits in?  Should I start raising and marketing a 'special' breed of pig just for the burgeoning exorcism market ??

Heh. You said 'taint'.

If they do succeed in summoning a physical manifestation of Baphomet, I'd offer my anus as a sperm receptacle for the climax of the festivities.
