So is your avatar something that happens to a person when he's possessed by the devil?

no, actually my avatar is just a pic of some famous guy who i just decided to paint over. Personally I think its funny looking. If it bothers you I can change it to somethign else.

I dont believe in Exorcism. People simply have nuero-pathalogical problems that need to be adressed by the proper authority.
Its amazing that only Christians seem to be possesed ( from my observation ).
I have this movie at home, never watched it though for some odd reason. I will give in, and say that I have experienced something that was vaugly remniscent of a " possesion ", but being of a strong will power, fought this " Sub-Consciouss " demon off.

some great finds!, thumbs up!

I also do believe in excorcisms and the power of demons to possess people. I am a catholic and as such have strong beliefs in higher powers, both good and evil.

Did you know that the producers of the excorcist had TONS of production problems. Same thing happened with poltergeist. That movie scared the crap outta me too when I was a kid.

I remember watching a Documentry on this, when I was younger. It is interesting. Personaly Dont believe that its possible in the sense regarding Catholic definition ( no offence ).

T-Bo, Like I said, if you have nothing to contribute, hush up!

its fine, I get a lot of crap for being catholic, but thats fine everyones entitled to their opinion.

as for the program you watched it was probably called grip of evil or something similar. It was not exactly true as is mentioned in the link I posted above but still scary nonetheless.
