Exorcism
There was a news media kerfluffle about a possible demonic possession in Saskatoon and the Catholic church not having any Exorcists in Saskatchewan. CFI Canada jumped in calling “on medical authorities to prohibit exorcisms in Canada, especially on children.” Carmen was interviewed as part of the news story.
Here are some news stories:
CBC Story on the original incident
CTV News with Carmen’s Interview about half way through.
What do people think about exorcisms. Should they be prohibited? Should they be prohibited for children only? Would the prohibition be a restriction of religious freedom? What would make exorcisms “safe”? Should churches be liable for telling parishioners that demons exist and can posses them?
Psychic Fair
There is a psychic fair coming to Saskatoon
