Am I on la coca or is this actually real?
I have no idea. I just found this while browsing randomly.
It’s understated, in 2018 there was already over 150 exorcists in Poland and the number grows.
I don’t know why I assumed this would be dwindling in the current Polish climate.
Priests are the magicians of christofascism, and exorcists are the magicians for the christofascists who are most superstitious (and rich at the same time).
Cows are haunted.
They’ve got some demons.
Considering most of the stuff their government says I wouldn’t be surprised if almost everyone is possessed there.
Jokes aside, if I remember correctly, Germany is even more insane with this considering that there was a case where they literally killed a woman in some way and said that she was possessed. It lasted for months apparently and priest had permission.
Uh, no and it seems weird anyone would assume it was
Serious answer, no. And the exosrcist number is just a tip on the iceberg. Hell they all are just dong this to grift money from gullible people and bootlicker local administrations but the total number of losses done by them are tiny and minuscule part of general church grift.
There was a case where one exorcismed the demons of veganism with headcheese (and then got massive donation for a help center and embezzeld it).
That’s just…sad.
We’re past aaking whether Italy is ok bc we’ve accepted it’s not 😔
Yeah…when a country has the Vatican lodged inside it like a tumor, they’re probably gonna have some issues.
Holy shit
Forget about Poland, what’s up with Italy?
The Catholic Church is the only organization that can offer “actual” Christian exorcism, so all those exorcists are just random “exorcist-trained” priests living in the Vatican.
Catholicism
In my head canon there’s kind of a “flag of convenience” thing going on there. You know how a lot of countries register their ships in Panama or Liberia despite the ships and the companies having nothing to do with those countries? I like to imagine it’s the same with exorcists and that a lot of them are just registered in Italy (because Pope and Catholic church HQ and all that) but actually live and work in entirely different countries.
Although the idea that Italy just has a couple hundred exorcists running around shouting “La potenza di Cristo ti costringe!” at random people on the street is also somewhat amusing to me…
