This always kind of struck me as odd.

Why is it only Abrahamic religions that deal with possessions and demons?

Why are their only Catholic exorcists, right? You would think that

if the Abrahamic religions were correct and true, why would supposed demons only mess with the only

group of people that can cast them out. It really doesn't make any sense.

Have you ever heard of a Hindu having a demonically possessed person that required the Catholic

Church's blessing for an exorcism? No, but the Hindus do have rituals where they enact,

where they become the god or goddess, right? I've seen them. I've been

there and I've seen it. It's pretty dramatic. But they are possessed by the God, but it's just

a short-lived possession during the ritual. That it's over and they're back to themselves and they know that

they were enacting out and all that and you know because they studied the god that they were

impersonating so no and i i i wonder what about buddhism i've never heard of a buddhist requiring

the assistance of a catholic in regards to someone exercising demons.

Kind of laughable, actually. Yeah. So my theory is that the rituals of the Abrahamic religions

open up the person doing the rituals to demonic attack.

I do believe that is true.

But also, all three of these religions, I hate to say it, but they're well, well known for

sexual abuse of young people.

And that's my point, right?

Okay, so Winselong, you heard of Catholic priests walk into a monastery and exercise a possessed freaking Shinto monk, never.
