Diocese apologises over priest’s sermon claiming autism is caused by ‘evil demons

The Diocese of Kerry has apologised after a visiting missionary priest told people attending a mission Mass in one of its parishes in Co Cork that autism was caused by “evil demons”.

The comment was made by a member of the Franciscans Friars of the Renewal from Limerick when celebrating a vigil Mass at the Church of the Sacred Heart in Kiskeam in northwest Cork.

One mass-goer told The Irish Times that people in the congregation on February 28th were taken aback when the priest said “autism is caused by evil demons”.

“It was the Vigil Mass on the Saturday night and the first day of the seven-day mission by the Franciscan Friars of Renewal – people were just shocked that he would say such a thing.”

The following day, another member of the order apologised for the comments while saying Mass at the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Boherbue, the same parish as Kiskeam.

“The remark, which referenced autism, was intended as an illustrative example but was poorly expressed and inappropriate. It was acknowledged that the comment was not appropriate, and a sincere apology was offered at the time for any hurt or offence caused.”

Oh gee, I wonder what the remark should have illustrated if it was expressed properly. How do you properly tie mental disorder with demon?

"People in Iran are practically getting raped, therefore God sent the notorious rapist Donald Trump to protect them by bombing them and murdering them, and all we should do is blindly follow him. Also, God protected Trump by sending a bullet meant for him into the head of a fireman."

Trump pastor says Iran war is a 'spiritual obligation'

Pastor Mark Burns, speaking to The Telegraph at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), said, "It’s our obligation, spiritual obligation. If I saw a woman being raped by a man, it’s my spiritual obligation to go over there and to defend that innocent woman.

“There are millions of innocent Iranians that have been held by gunpoint at the hand of this evil dictator, just like what’s happening in Russia, in Ukraine. It is our obligation. We don’t want the fight. We’re not looking for the fight.

“There are millions of Iranians that, again, are shouting thankfulness to [Netanyahu]], thankfulness to President Trump, that this evil regime is now being toppled and being challenged so that they can be free.”

Pastor Burns said that President Trump had received God’s protection from the two attempts on his life, adding that the near miss in 2024 had led Trump to a more serious engagement with his own personal faith.

‘That Demon’s Lying’: Pastor Shares Chilling Deliverance Moment

Pastor Mike Signorelli of V1 Church in New York City is no stranger to spiritual warfare.

In fact, he’s spent a great deal of his ministry not only confronting the demonic realm but also helping Christians understand how it operates in the modern era.

“One time, I was casting demons out of a woman. As a matter of fact, she came forward for prayer and didn’t even ask for deliverance,” he said. “And then all of a sudden this demon started to manifest, and I cast the demon out, and then the woman went completely limp.”

At the time, everyone assumed a spiritual healing had taken place, but Signorelli felt something was off.

“I remember the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, ‘No, that demon’s lying. The demon’s still there,'” he recalled. “I spoke to the demon. I said, ‘No, I know there’s still a demon in there. … You’re not deceiving me,’ and as soon as I said that this woman’s head recoiled with this crazy, evil-sounding laugh.”

The moment was so shocking that everyone in the room jumped back. Signorelli said everything went from “she’s delivered” to “Oh, no,” as people realized there was still work to do.

“It’s like a movie moment,” he said. “I finished the deliverance, and cast that demon out, and took authority over the spirit. But, it was in that moment where I realized how real the spiritual realm is.”

Watch Signorelli tell the rest of the story above, and be sure to stream “Investigating the Supernatural: Angels and Demons,” CBN’s new documentary that draws on insights from credible experts, medical knowledge, historical context, and eyewitness testimony, to explore the roles of angels and demons, the reality of spiritual warfare, and how these forces intersect with everyday life.

Here is some wisdom from my favorite consecrated virgin and a canonist, Jenna M. Cooper, who already had an honor to be in this topic before.

Is there any way to know how long a person might be in purgatory?

It is entirely possible that a person may still be in purgatory 20 years after their death, or even longer. I am reminded of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, where one of the visionaries reported that Our Lady told her that a recently deceased teenager from their village would be in purgatory until the end of the world!

So there you have it, my dear Catholics: you never know if your deceased family member is still in purgatory, so you better pay for church masses for them at least once a year to get them out of there. Capisce, bitches?

I just wanted to further comment on this stance by the church that a deceased person can be in purgatory "until the end of the world" and how it just happens to play financially for the church.

Richard Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick, who died 500 years ago, is a perfect example of a person who took this seriously because he built a very expensive chapel for his corpse that would cost millions of pounds in today's money, plus he paid for 5000 masses to be performed for him—which he thought would be enough until the end of the world. Needless to say, it would be much more useful if those millions of British pounds were spent on the living—like the poor medieval peasants.

Here's a clip from a BBC doc about him and his chapel. It's on Dailymotion, so it's in hide tags because it starts automatically.

"Giving me money is the best and most honest way to show that you love the God of the Bible, and it is also the best way to reach spirituality."

Elder Jorge T. Becerra: ‘Tithing — Putting God First’

“From the beginning of time God has taught His children to put Him first in their lives.”

The Lord commanded Adam and Eve to worship God and offer the firstlings of their flocks as a sacrifice to Him.

“Payment of tithes and offerings will enhance our spiritual capacity as we put God first and offer our ‘firstlings of the flock.’”

Spiritual power and direction that individuals have not previously had will come into their lives as they honor the law of obedience and the law of sacrifice.

“Evidence of this truth is found in the simple statement of the Lord after Adam had offered sacrifice, ‘And in that day the Holy Ghost fell upon Adam’ (Moses 5:9).”

Jesus Christ is the perfect example of putting God first. He laid down His life as a symbol of submission to His Father’s will.

A Catholic priest, Chad Ripperger, was just on the Tucker Carlson podcast where he claims:

Demons recruit politicians to run for office.
Tucker is amazed by this and says the priest must feel so vindicated when watching the news.

Overeating is caused by demons, unless you’re a man who eats a lot of meat.

You dream clearly when you stop coating your mouth with fluoride every night.

Demons are in HR departments, getting good workers fired.

Porn is more addictive today, because Satanists have taught pornographers how to “curse the master copy.”
