well, i don't know how many of u listen to this radio show on AM called Coast 2 Coast. it's basically a math/science/conspiracy show hosted by the world famous Art Bell. Well, this past teusday, i was on my break at work and turn on the radio in my car and he says "we are about to play the recording of an actual excorcism in Russia." so of course, i turn on the subwoofer, roll down the windows and start hitting 90 to the sounds of satan.

it seems that a video has popped up of the event. of course, having already met the devil twice and been abducted by aliens a few more times, i'm a bit afraid to watch the video.

some highlights:

quote:

Here's what you'll see in this video presentation: * After an introduction by Alexey Pushkov, correspondent Julia Grabovskayatakes takes us to a church where a group exorcism – or deliverance, as it is called – is taking place. * A young woman struggles violently and howls as the priest holds a crucifix on her head. * Then an older parishioner tells us of the “inhuman� sounds she’s heard coming from the possessed, and how some of them even run screaming from the church. * The reporter tells us that videotaping of the deliverances is usually not allowed, but the priest sanctioned it in hopes of convincing viewers of its reality. Besides the animalistic growls and screams, the reporter has been told of even more fantastic manifestations – including levitation. * The elderly exorcist speaks of his struggle with what he considers the demonic and his dedication to the deliverance rituals, despite criticism, for the sake of his parishioners’ souls. * Another parishioner tells how he was cured by the exorcism. He was not able to walk, he says, but after he began to attend services, he regained use of his legs. * An older parishioner, restrained by two others, curses at and threatens the priest, resisting his blessing. * The reporter tells how this woman was dying of cancer that an operation did not help. She then says that she does not feel anything during the exorcism, but that the crucifix burns the demon inside her. * A younger exorcist warns that these demonic entities are intelligent beings that should not be underestimated. They know people’s personal secrets. * In the interest of journalistic balance, the reporter next quotes a psychiatrist, who believes the exorcisms may be doing more harm than good. * Another “possessed� person fights and curses. ("Panteleimon," which the woman refers to, is the name for an Orthodox priest.) * The younger exorcist counters the psychiatrist, saying that they can usually tell the difference between someone who is mentally ill and someone who is “oppressed by an evil spirit.� Those in need of a psychiatrist are referred to doctors. * On the other hand, the exorcist says, he has seen patients in mental clinics that really need exorcisms. He claims to have cured one such patient of schizophrenia.

other excerpts from the website say that certain excorcisms have resulted in levitation and people bending over backwards head to heel, which which make for some actual good Fox TV.

quote:

...known from a videotape the two made when they met in March... in Dresdens home, Dresden amputated Gabriels penis and Dresden and Gabriel ate the penis together...Gabriel had insisted that Dresden bite his penis off; this did not work.. Dresden used a knife. When that knife turned out to be too blunt, Dresden used a sharper knife to slice the penis off. Gabriel apparently tried to eat his share of his own penis..but could not because it was too..."chewy". Dresden then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic.

....only a matter of time before Fox makes a excorism reality show.
