Been doing that for a while, but they have got stronger
They have the support of the board of directors too, so I can't risk it
How much do you think self harm is of the devil?
Self harm used to be a sign of demonic possession
Ask them that, while they are at it, when are they going to forbid opposition to incest and bestiality
It does bring a smile to my face that every time they try to debate me it ends with them screeching
@Crux Could be, but one should look for other signs, it could be a mental disorder
Also depends the level of self harm
And remember, when they start talking, say that <whatever they say> offends you, so they must not repeat it.
I have met many estranged catholics fallen into depression, self harm and suicidal tendencies
That could be influenced by a lot of aspects all the way to genetics
I've tried to bring them back to church but its difficult
Men and women manifest different
Men usually become antisocial, angry
Women get depressed and start cutting themselves and trying to kill themselves by ODing on painkillers/relaxants
Which in some part i think it's driven by ego
From my experience, the only people I've met that have those issues usually have inherited them from their family or are plainly racemixed
As in their family has some high-tier problems and that ended up reflected in them
As for that being demonic possession, hm, could be demonic influence but not possession, it does open the doors for that though
I reckon those exist too
makes a lot of sense
That a demon would be assigned to an entire family
I believe some monks do generational cuts?
generational cuts?
like, for new families to avoid those demons from passing into the new family
ahh
I've only heard of it like once
Yeah I heard about it
Where demons or curse could be passed onto the next generation
Hm, I want to get something cleared
How long does one has to fast before receiving communion?
alright, cheers
its 1 hour under current canon law
the 3 hours came in in the 50s I think and before that it was from midnight
From midnight is the Trad approach.
Not sure where that comes into play for masses later in the day.
Always said to myself I'd pursue becoming an Exorcist if vocation turns out to be the way forward.
can you pursue it? or does the Bishop just have to ask you?
