ROME WILL ADDRESS THE OCCULT
According to a story from Reuters:
Rome Dec 10: Forget the new Exorcist film, the Vatican is offering the real thing.A Vatican University said yesterday it will hold a special “theoretical and practical” course for Roman Catholic priests on satanism and exorcism in response to what the church says is a worrying interest in the occult, particularly among the young. ...
The Regina Apostolorum, one of Rome’s most prestigious pontifical universities, said in a statement that such episodes should be seen as an “alarm bell to take seriously a problem which is still far too underestimated.”...
The two-month course, which begins in February and will be limited to priests and advanced students of theology, will include themes such as satanism, diabolic possession and “prayers of liberation”.
