If they can’t get the demon out the next best thing is to cure it of its homosexuality. (Show it hot pictures of naked demonesses perhaps?). Then the kid may still be possessed but he’ll be possessed by a _straight_ demon and that looks so much better to the neighbours.

Demons are required to answer truthfully when asked to name themselves, provided you demand it in the name of Jesus. I was taught this by my pastor when I was about 14. Really.

But something other than a demon could also say it was a demon under those circumstances, so having something that says it’s a demon doesn’t tell you much. If it had said it was not a demon, you’d know logically that it wasn’t (assuming the premise that a demon can’t lie about being a demon when questioned in a certain way is valid).

If that works, it suggests something to those of us who are older and overweight. If we show naked pictures of ourselves to people who aren’t turned on by older, overweight people, maybe they eventually will be if we show them enough of those pictures, no?

Well, if you want a _clean_ spirit, then who better to have in there than a gay one?  
Sorry…I’ll leave now…

A squadron of homo demons, a video camera and a sorority house. Profit!

Why can’t it just be a female heterosexual demon? Are all demons male? Or do demons only posses people of the same gender?

I wouldn’t exactly call it charges, per se. What happened is the kid showed the video to a counselor of some type in his gay youth support group. That counselor considered herself obligated to file a report of suspected abuse with the Child Welfare department. The counselor is probably a “mandatory reporter”–many people that regularly deal with children are. A “mandatory reporter” has very little discretion. If they see something that reasonably appears to be child abuse, they are required by law to promptly file a report with the appropriate agency. The agency then conducts an investigation, at least in theory, and has the power to remove the child from that situation and take further actions.

And along the same lines, are all gay people possesed? That’s gotta be like, a couple million demons in the US alone.

I think everyone still on earth at this point is possessed. All of the Select have already shuffled off to heaven by this point, haven’t they?

Doesn’t this violate the demon’s Fifth Amendment rights?

No, female demons are [succubi](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succubus).

Not at all. In _Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada_ the Supreme Court held that requiring a suspect to simply identify himself did not infringe on his Fourth or Fifth Amendment rights.

WTF is a gay demon name? Sure, if you ask and the response is “Bruce” with a lisp you might have a gay demon on your hands…or an ELO fan. Is ther some Master Demon Name list with a little asterix next to the gay ones?

Look at the bright side. Gays can simply go as their demon selves in Halloween. Best costume ever.
