Exorcists Wanted: Apply to Catholic Church

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Wanted: a few good men to cast out devils.

Overwhelmed with requests for exorcists, U.S. Roman Catholic bishops are holding a special training workshop in Baltimore this weekend to teach clerics the esoteric rite, the Catholic News Service reported.

The church has signed up 56 bishops and 66 priests for the two-day workshop that began on Friday, seeking to boost the small group of just five or six American exorcists that the church currently has on its books.

"There's this small group of priests who say they get requests from all over the continental U.S.," Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, was quoted as saying.

  1. I just think it is amazing how the people who claim to be demon possessed always seem to be catholic! I have never heard of one born again true beliver to be demon possessed. Even in the Bible they only believed after Christ removed those demons, which were there because of His earthly Ministry.
