Why Exorcism?

This blog is really an attempt to put myself and my beliefs on triaI. I have chosen to do this by investigating Exorcism; its rituals and beliefs, taboos and the significant changes that it has gone through in modern society with respect to technology. I have decided on this subject for a number of reasons; Firstly, because it has always been a subject that the church, not avoided specifically, but more, kept in a private sphere, without a lot of public awareness. I believe that the church has decided to act this way because exorcism deals with many issues that rely on either a leap of faith from believers or because it is the less pleasant side of a religion that is supposed to, among all things, be centered around 'good.'

This leads on to my second reason which, acknowledging the above, is to discover if the internet has in any way changed or influenced the way in which exorcism is now viewed in the contemporary world, for example, an individual like myself can now talk freely about exorcism online in forums. I have made myself the subject of this exorcism investigation because I want to see how possible it can be to feign a demonic possession, speak to others with this particular problem and to perhaps see what is offered to me personally as an escape from this via the internet.

Lovely picture of me to illustrate this point:
