Live TV Exorcism

This is going to be dreadful, an attention-seeking born-again christian and the doctor off "this morning".
 
The Exorcism has only been on 10 mins and already has slid into nonsense:with a Reverend saying God was "without a shadow of a doubt" working through him to cast out demonic forces!
Wasnt this programme supposed to scientific???:(

There's lots of computer screens showing colourful graphics and the possessed volunteer has wires attached to his head. How more scientific could it get? ;)

Go on Krishnan, ask Trevor the charismatic Christian how many tooth fillings he's seen turn to gold. I dare ya.

Yikes, you ain't the only one who got caught out by that, merseyviews.
 
They should of got richard madeley to do the show, He's good at making spirits disappear. Boom Boom.
 
Note that the "squigly lines" (I quote the good doctor there) are being monitored on a Windows machine. Thus the first sign we should see that there's a real demonic possession being exorcised here should be a BSOD.
 
Two unanswerable questions that trouble me so far:

1. They're taking an EEG reading whilst he prays silently. How do they know he's not actually rehearsing his upcoming role in One Night in Paris Vol 2 instead of praying?

2. They've got readings for him reading the bible both aloud and silently, why isn't there a control for him reading something more mundane?

Guru-Murphy was once presenter on Newsround,I think(kids news programme-so well qualified!)
Oh...please,Lord Jesus this that the other!!! Looks like someone raided the DR.Who props department and strung it round his neck? Where's the green vomit?;)

BSOD?
 
For the benefit of those not watching, earlier on one Father Pat Collins noted that in his experience this isn't actually going to be an exorcism but rather a much lesser ritual termed a Deliverance. He's entirely correct, in spite of Rev. Newport's claim that the two rituals are essentially the same what's happening on this show does not in fact qualify as a full blown exorcism ritual.

Edit: Canon Lisle Ryder concurs, this was not what he'd call an exorcism.

Re-Edit: Rev. Parsons ALSO wouldn't call that an exorcism. Basically so far no one not involved either directly or indirectly with Newport is willing to call this a proper exorcism, let alone comment on any so-called demons.

Hey, it worked for Gary Schwartz.

Wait... uh, no it didn't.
 
They are going to pinpoint a section of the E.E.G. where it moves a bit and that will be the moment of deliverence or whatever. He only had to cough and the EEG went bananas before.

Table-tipping ahahaha
 
Its not what Id call anything other than some deluded vicar,building his part.When does Derren Brown come on...?;)
 
The helpline going to be flloded with people after this:
"You took off a repeat of Friends..for this?":D
 
Did I miss the part where something interesting actually happens...

Apparently the demons cooperated with the experiment and made things easy!
 
The subject says he feels no different,didnt feel anything leave him.So big success,so far!:D
 
In one respect it is a shame more people won't have seen this rubbish. The God carriers haven't come off too well have they.
 
Owell, at this point the results are more or less completely irrelevant, simply because they're not nalyzing the ritual we were told they would be. Scientifically speaking there may still be some value in this insofar as studying psyhological healing and impact on the mind via religious ritual, but from a personal interest point of view... *yyaawwnn*! We been conned possibly in the most unexpected way, rather than an obviously nonsense or poorly faked exorcism there was simply no exorcism to begin with :P.
