Related: About this forumBishop Paprocki stages exorcism as gay marriage becomes law-begone Satan........
http://www.suntimes.com/23891467-761/bishop-paprocki-stages-exorcism-as-gay-marriage-becomes-law-be-gone-satan.html***************
After that introduction, Paprocki read the rite of exorcism in Latin as his voice echoed through the cavernous and ornate Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception church a few blocks from the state Capitol, where the legislation passed earlier this month.
I exorcise you, every unclean spirit, every power of darkness, every incursion of the infernal enemy, every diabolical legion, cohort, and faction, in the name and power of our Lord Jesus Christ, Paprocki said. Be uprooted and put to flight from the Church of God from souls created in the image of God and redeemed by the precious blood of the divine lamb.

In spite of the mockery of liberals, the secular community, and generally reasonable people Paprocki proceeded with this rite. Reviews from Satan not yet received.

once and for all. It would make things so much easier for the world.
Maybe less interesting.

His Satanic Majesty has his own suggestions.
