"Exorcisms" DO happen. It's mostly a matter of a worthy Priesthood holder casting out the spirit in the name of Jesus Christ (not unlike giving a blessing I suppose). They aren't discussed because dwelling on evil in conversation invites evil to do wicked things, or something like that.<BR/><BR/>Off topic: How did I not know you had a blog?Holly @ Domestic Dorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588020192381538681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6493261630377895537.post-87032669447963672692008-12-16T21:20:00.000-08:002008-12-16T21:20:00.000-08:00So this reminded me of a story that Sister Susan E...So this reminded me of a story that Sister Susan Easton Black shared in my Church History class:<BR/><BR/>George Albert Smith, as a missionary in the Southern States, knocked a door where a woman was holding a seance. He said he loved the dead, and asked to join. But nothing happened, and the woman asked them to come back in a week with a specific dead person that they wanted to call back. They came back, joined hands and all, and she asked who they wanted her to call, and George Albert Smith said, "Gadianton." She asked for the last name, he said he thought there was only one Gadianton. So she starts to call Gadianton, and starts screaming and writhing in pain and shouting at them to break the circle. When they do, and she recovers a little, she asks, "Who the hell is Gadianton?" to which Elder Smith replied, "Hell knows his name well."Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18073393268610480717noreply@blogger.com
