I would like it better, sometimes, if a different disorder was used in that piece of scripture to have another ailment other than seizures and a demon. I have heard many people describe their pain and suffering and perhaps the story could have described their medical complication along with a demon.

And since there will be 15,000 people descending on my fair city, I am glad they won't get the "paradise revisited" version. Take care, perhaps we'll get to meet up. As for demons and divines, I think most people are just afraid and have no clue how to think or feel about it except to react to their fear. But I'm sure you know that. It is just tiresome. We got the "they'll grow out of it, won't they" stuff too. Sigh.

He does this because he thinks it is funny. We were both raised Catholic and now we are not but he still has some sort of connection to it. I do not. That is all I have to say about that.
