I don't understand American obsession with UFO, is there something behind it?
This guy clearly hasn't finished reading all of 'Childhood's End' yet.
We can't have our nonsense be tainted by someone spouting nonsense!
Fair enough. You just can't allow such rampant UFOism to take root in the church!
So where are his balls?
The Catholic archbishop of Washington, D.C., Cardinal Robert McElroy, on Wednesday removed a well-known priest as an exorcist of the archdiocese after he made public comments suggesting that UFO sightings were the work of demons.
The archbishop said Rossetti’s statements “linking UFOs to demonic presence and the Center’s recent use of social media gravely undermine the Church’s very precise teaching on the devil, demons and exorcism.”
“It’s my personal belief that probably many if not most of these UFO sightings are in fact demons,” Rossetti added.
Another "credible person"
It was my understanding that these days, exorcists were more or less glorified guidance counselors for people who are a very specific kind of religiously mentally ill.
Honestly the Catholic church cleaning house and defrocking these weirdos would probably do a lot of good long term. I know theyve been pretty hands off since the religious wars of Europe cooled down and let various sects do their own thing but I feel that quiet a few of the US sects are fucking batshit and need an inquisition thrown at them.
