Anderson Cooper gave some time to Bob Larson and his teen aged demon slayers. [[link]](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKYH3-NmSmE) Folks, these people are jokes but they are hurting people and ripping off people who are hurting. Oh, and they’re trying to get another “Reality” TV show. Bob Larson has been getting paid to make demons go away for many years, even after Christian media outlets have [exposed him as a fraud](http://www.worldmag.com/1993/01/this_is_me_this_is_real). I’m not asking anyone not to laugh at this fraudulent piece of crap. But there are hundreds to thousands of people out there in desperate need of psychological help who have turned to Bob Larson’s “pay to pray the demon away” service instead. Yes, there is a point and laugh factor here but the “Reverend” Bob Larson has been victimizing people for profit for a lot of years. His new “Exorcettes” business model is just his newest way to attract attention and money. ---

His new “Exorcettes” business model is just his newest way to attract attention and money. So when are we going to see the Exorcettes Gone Wild video? And while I get what you say, chumps are chumps and chumps are going to be taken. And pretty much anyone believing in witches and demons is a chump. ---

Okay, I’m watching the programme on the iPlayer. “What motivation do you think this guy had for doing black magic on a pie?” This is excellent. ---

Ah, so now it’s a bad thing to tell someone in the Pit that you think what they are angry about is stupid. I’ll remember that. What you should have pointed out is that the OP really isn’t all that upset. He references an Adam Sandler movie in the OP, for goodness sake. ---
