"Father Gabriele Amorth, exorcist-in-chief at the Vatican, has said: 'If English and American children like to dress up as witches and devils on one night of the year that is not a problem. If it is just a game, there is no harm in that.'"
"One wonders if he holds the same generous view of those children who like to dress up as Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Foxe, Huss, Knox or His Grace to celebrate Reformation Day.."

"I may keep the house lights on tonight in hopes of seeing children who like to dress up as Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Foxe, Huss, Knox or His Grace to celebrate Reformation Day!"

So... did you see any little Luthers or Calvins in your neighborhood? None here. Then again, we *celebrated* by attending an organ recital at a local church. Lots of fun actually.

The exorcist is not worried about the little children who dress up because he is more concerned about priests and Cardinals who dress up.
ReplyDelete"The evil influence of Satan was evident in the highest ranks of the Catholic hierarchy, with 'cardinals who do not believe in Jesus and bishops who are linked to the demon,' Father Amorth said."
