Story [here.](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2415387/Teenage-exorcists-say-Harry-Potter-corrupted-world-head-Britain-armed-Bibles-Holy-Water-tackle-hotbed-occult-activity.html)

May your so-called holy water rot and burn your sweet lovely sexy flesh, Christian grrllzz, and may your false God burn in his own Hell. May such a curse fall between your thighs that the fairest swain between here and Constantinople will not unlock 'em. What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may your false worthless God have mercy on your even more worthless souls. No, may He not and never.

So do I have time to get myself demon-possessed before they get here? … Exorcize me, baby!

Well, you have to read the books first, and there’s rather a lot of them.

Savannah has Michelle Bachmann’s eyes. You can see it in the video frame.

:dubious:

I guess the Daily Fail does not know what a plant is. Or it knows that the news was planted to gain free publicity for the show and \*\*still \*\*does not care.

Ridiculous, viral-fodder nonsense? Check.

Model-level girls to provide an eye catching visual to a story originated by their svengali father? Check.

Namedrop of uber-popular fictional character? Check

Huh. Sounds like someone’s selling something. Oh wait:

The story says the daughter wants to work in international business… _with a degree from Liberty U.??_

Anyone gives me a resume with that school listed goes directly in the circular file.

Can’t argue with that. “Model level girls”? Um, well, for a given level of “model level”, I guess.

Hot, model and stunning had me expecting quite a bit more, I must say.

Yeah, they’re above average looking, that’s it.

eta: Actually, after seeing they’re ages, I take that back. They’re pretty average, with nice-ish clothes and good hair (and too much makeup).

Sexually transmitted demons? I’m not sure if I’m bold enough to google that.

Certainly a timely effort on their part. Best to nip this Potter thing in the bud before it reaches the mainstream.

So, what exactly happens to a demon when it gets cast out, anyway? Does it just take over another person (in which case, net gain zero) or is it now homeless? I mean, if this guy’s so good, shouldn’t we be seeing a bunch of demons hanging around at intersections, holding up cardboard signs that say “Will possess for food”?

Google was not as intimidating as feared. [This article](http://jezebel.com/teenage-exorcists-explain-the-dangers-of-sexually-tra-979711935) has some highlights from an interview.  
I didn’t watch the video, but they preview frame has them looking wholesome and normalish.

Dr Intimacy has [more to say](http://drintimacy.wordpress.com/2011/10/15/stds-sexually-transmitted-demons/) on [Sexually Transmitted Demons](http://drintimacy.wordpress.com/category/sex-demons/).
