Re: Exorcism & Christianity Vs Other
That so many like Son Of Sam, aka David Berkowitz have been so greatly changed for the better is a good indication that the good Holy Spirit of Jehovah is a real multi-present entity that enters into humans who receive him, driving out/exorcising the evil spirits at the time of the Biblically acclaimed conversion experience, i.e. born or the Jehovah's spirit.
I think you will find it is because he is taking his meds.

The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer.

Moreover that view is a blatantly anti-relativistic one. I'm rather inclined to think that space being relative to time and time relative to location should make such a naive hankering to pin-point an ultimate origin of anything, an aspiration that is not even wrong.
Well, Larni, let's say I much better know what I don't want to say than how exactly say what I do.

Re: Biblical Exorcism vs Pagan Etc.
The primary difference is that the Biblical methodology involves no objects or physical applications.
Apart from crosses and holy water, of course.
ABE:
As for the existence of demons, there exists no better explanation for observable extreme evil phenomena?
How soon you forget:
MENTAL ILLNESS!
ABE: totally Ninja'd by Fracko *shakes fist*
