[Pope
'exorcised two men in the Vatican', claims new book by Nick Squires, Rome] "Pope
Benedict unwittingly performed an exorcism
of two men possessed by the Devil
in the very heart of the Vatican,
according to the Catholic Church's best-known exorcist, Father Gabriele Amorth...
In a new book, Father Amorth, the exorcist for the diocese of Rome,
gives a bizarre account of how he and two assistants brought a pair of
"possessed" Italian men to one of the Pope's weekly audiences in St Peter's
Square in May 2009.
In his book, "The Last Exorcist – My Fight Against Satan",
he claimed the mere presence of
the pontiff cured the men of their demonic afflictions.
Father Amorth said his two female assistants
escorted the two men
into St Peter's Square as
the Pope was driven between crowds of faithful in the white "Popemobile" jeep.
The women managed to obtain seats for the two men in an area of seating normally
reserved for the disabled.
As
the Pope approached them, the men, identified only as Marco and Giovanni, began
to act strangely, Father Amorth wrote.
He described how they trembled
and
how their teeth chattered.
When one of the assistants asked Giovanni to control himself,
he said "I am not Giovanni"
in a voice that was not his own, Father Amorth claimed.
As soon as
the Pope stepped down from the "Popemobile'
the two men flung themselves to the floor.
"They banged their heads on the ground. The Swiss Guards watched them but did
nothing," the priest wrote.
"Giovanni and Marco started to wail
at the same time, they were lying on the floor, howling.
"They were trembling,
slobbering,
working themselves into a frenzy.
"The Pope watched from a distance. He raised an arm
and blessed the four of them. For the possessed it was like a furio us jolt - a
blow to their whole bodies - to the extent that they were thrown three metres
backwards," he continued.
"They stopped howling but they cried uncontrollably..."

Response to comment [from a
Christian]: "...[A]ccording to this book, we should believe the pope is more
powerful than Jesus? Not!"
You
are
supposed
to believe
that
he is
Christ's
representative
on
earth.
Boo...ooo...ooo...Ha...Ha...Ha...
Where did they get that squirrely idea?
"...The Vatican teaches that Peter's keys have been handed down to his
successors throughout the centuries. This has given credence to the papacy to
govern the kingdom of God, which they believe, is the Roman Catholic Church. As
a result, Peter and his successors are said to have special spiritual powers
as Christ's representative on earth...."

"Will you put your anti-Catholic cut-and-pastes in the religion forums instead,
please?"
I'm not
anti-Catholic.
This guy is anti-Christian.
[The Fruit of Rome Displayed on the Internet by Mike Gendron Proclaiming the
Gospel Ministries] "In the 20 years of serving in the ministry of Proclaiming
the Gospel, God has protected us from many of the fierry darts of the enemy. The
attacks are usually in the form of malicious slander, defamatory words or false
accusations. There have also been threats to destroy the ministry and several
attempts to demolish our web site. Two of the attempts were traced back to the
Archdiocese of Santa Fe and the Vatican. You can see the latest attacks [see

Response to comment [from a Christian]: "Since Rattzinger probably wont
live more than 5 or so more years, they need to get a jump start on his
beatification..."
