In the big picture, is faith in God, revelation from God and prayer worth it?
Do we prevent somebody being hurt by superstition or faith by rejecting and challenging those things? Is it mistaken to support organised religion in membership or donations?
If people do good because they are human, not because God prompts them then is it right to risk giving God any credit when they alone own their good??

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
Exorcists have no way of being sure that when they throw holy water on a person who screams that it burns if it is the demon or the person who is speaking. And the demon may be speaking but what if the real person is suffering too and cannot speak? The demon could leave temporarily or hide in the person to avoid the pain. A real demon would surely know that sprinkling holy water is part of the routine. It would see the bottle. It would hide. The reaction shows that the demon is faking if there is a demon. The person suffering, if any, is the victim. Holy water on the body of a person who is not the demon cannot effect the demon. The Wicked Witch of the West would not have been melted by a bucket of water had she being wearing waterproofs. The body of the possessed person does not belong to the demon so the demon cannot respond if the body is sprinkled with holy water. The body is like a shell.
