And so was "The Last Temptation of Christ" (1988). Your point?

Haven't seen it. Don't really believe in exorcisms or literal demon possessions, but I guess they can make for interesting movies every once in awhile.

I don't think one's personal faith tells whether they'll be good film makers or not.
 
Yes, but now you're defining "Christian" by one's actions, instead of one's faith. Does that mesh probably with current "Christian" theology?

It's a party, what can I say?

One of my cousin's name is Emily Rose and I can tell you that she is not amused.

Actually the Emily Rose is not really the girl's real name. The girl who is the subject for this movie lived in Germany I believe. Anneliese was her real name, and I believe the Catholic Church renounced the exorcism after she died.

Sad story if you investigate it.

this is encouraging
i hope it is true


belief in spirits

ghosts

possession

can be fun for fiction

but, should not spill over into actions that impact troubled peoples lives


let medicine and science treat people that are afflicted

can we leave the
ignorance of the dark ages behind?
