I'm a Third Order Catholic. My best friend is in Opus Dei.
I understand it perfectly.
Just because a friend told you about it doesn't mean you know everything.. You even claimed that the Opus Dei is only for adults, obviously you
didn't even know there are Opus Dei clubs for kids..... So the one deceiving is you, because it is obvious you don't know anytyhing about the Opus
Dei, and that Catholic Priests and nuns do say things they are not supposed to say... and you are naive enough to actually claim that in your mind all
Catholic priests must be perfect, and that this proves that I am deceiving?...
Again, I am getting tired of you keep claiming I am deceiving... I am not, but you sure are with your twisting of what people say when it suits you,
perhaps it has to do with the lies of your faith... After all, it was because of your own faith that thousands, and possibly hundreds of thousands of
innocent people were burnt at stakes, or were drowned in some other stupid tests... and yes there are still stupid Catholic, Christian, and priests
from other religions who think a person must be possessed by the devil, or that it is the work of the devil because someone else has had a different
experience and different beliefs than them...
You are the only deceitful person here, because you are only looking for conflict, and not for a constructive open discussion.
I really dont care what you think, it is quite that simple.
So go to some other discussion, perhaps the rant section, and claim whatever you want to claim there...

Catholic priests are NOT allowed to proclaim someone possessed.
That does not mean they do not say such things.... Obviously you think all Catholics are perfect, and follow the rules perfectly, you are wrong. I
have seen, and was right next to my mother when a spanish nun told my mother there were no toys there for me in Christmas because we were not from
Spain, and i did not deserve them, and my mother cried because my parents could not afford toys in the first years of us living in Spain, and of
course even with my mother crying your perfect catholic nun would not budge, and with her very loving attitute she left to do some other perfect
Catholic deed... That's a perfect nun of your faith for you...you can keep her, and others like her as well as priests, as you can keep your
twisting words to yourself...
Do not tell me you know better because you don't, you just want to argue, obviously you feed off conflicts, so go to the streets, or to a bar and
vent whatever in the world is bugging you....which has nothing to do with the truth...

Exposing deception is not a game.
You have not exposed anything, except that you are a very ignorant person.

If you were supposedly declared 'possessed' by the priests (something they can't do) then why would you then be put into a Catholic Kids Camp? If
you were supposedly possessed in their eyes, then there would have been an exorcism ... they wouldn't have shipped you off to a kids camp. What good
would that do? They can't exorcise anyone. It's just a camp.
Declared possessed SO I WAS shipped off to .... .
I was giving a timeline of what was happening to me, although what the catholic prists said was not the main reason, it would be part of the reason
why my mother would want me in catholic circles.....
If i were to retell my whole life i would have to write a whole book... Again, you are trying to nickpick because you have nothing else to do....

Nope. I did NOT try to claim they were 'all indicative' of demonic possession. That's for an authorized excorsist to decide. And if you'll
notice I said that dementia isn't a demonic possession trait. It's a disease.
...and now it's time for me to nickpick....you claimed...
That's what demonic activity does. It will appear mostly as something friendly or as a being of light ...so you will invite it in ... but
every so often the true evil nature will come through.

No. I'm showing that your story has holes and contradictions.
No, you are not, in fact, you are not even worth of any response. Go to a bar to pcik a fight because that's what you are here for, nothing more,
nothing less.

If you can't handle the facts ... ignore them. I don't care.
Facts? the only facts you have shown is that you try to nitpick, and you twist anything and everything and "try" to present it as a fact when all
you are doing is twisting people's words...
