Real-life case of demon possession documented
Posted on Sunday, March 16, 2008 (CDT) by Thoth
An American woman who levitated, demonstrated paranormal psychic powers and spoke foreign languages unknown to her was clearly demon possessed, according to a board-certified psychiatrist and associate professor of clinical psychiatry at New York Medical College.
The unnamed woman, with a long history of involvement with Satanic groups, was observed by a team of priests, deacons, several lay assistants, psychiatrists, nuns, some of whom also had medical and psychiatric training, levitating six inches off the ground while objects flew off shelves in the same room, according to Dr. Richard E. Gallagher, who documented the case in the February issue of the New Oxford Review.
"Periodically, in our presence, Julia would go into a trance state of a recurring nature," writes Gallagher. "Mentally troubled individuals often 'dissociate,' but Julia's trances were accompanied by an unusual phenomenon: Out of her mouth would come various threats, taunts and scatological language, phrases like 'Leave her alone, you idiot,' 'She's ours,' 'Leave, you imbecile priest,' or just 'Leave.' The tone of this voice differed markedly from Julia's own, and it varied, sometimes sounding guttural and vaguely masculine, at other points high pitched. Most of her comments during these 'trances,' or at the subsequent exorcisms, displayed a marked contempt for anything religious or sacred."
The subject
would have no recollection of speaking these phrases upon recovering
from the trance-like state, according to Gallagher.
"Sometimes objects around
her would fly off the shelves, the rare phenomenon of psychokinesis
known to parapsychologists," reports Gallagher. "Julia was also in
possession of knowledge of facts and occurrences beyond any possibility
of their natural acquisition.
"She commonly reported
information about the relatives, household composition, family deaths
and illnesses, etc., of members of our team, without ever having
observed or been informed about them," he said. "As an example, she
knew the personality and precise manner of death (i.e., the exact type
of cancer) of a relative of a team member that no one could conceivably
have guessed. She once spoke about the strange behavior of some
inexplicably frenzied animals beyond her direct observation: Though
residing in another city, she commented, 'So those cats really went
berserk last night, didn't they?' the morning after two cats in a team
member's house uncharacteristically had violently attacked each other
at about 2 a.m."
Julia requested a Roman
Catholic exorcism ritual, convinced from the beginning of her
consultations that she was under demonic attack.
"The exorcism began on a
warm day in June," Gallagher recollects. "Despite the weather, the room
where the rite was being conducted grew distinctly cold. Later,
however, as the entity in Julia began to spout vitriol and make strange
noises, members of the team felt themselves profusely sweating due to a
stifling emanation of heat. The participants all said they found the
heat unbearable.
"Julia at first had gone
into a quiet trance-like state. After the prayers and invocations of
the Roman Ritual had been going on for a while, however, multiple
voices and sounds came out of her. One set consisted of loud growls and
animal-like noises, which seemed to the group impossible for any human
to mimic. At one point, the voices spoke in foreign languages,
including recognizable Latin and Spanish. (Julia herself only speaks
English, as she later verified to us.)
"The voices were noticeably
attacking in nature, and often insolent, blasphemous and highly
scatological. They cursed and insulted the participants in the crudest
way. They were frequently threatening – trying, it appeared, to fight
back – 'Leave her alone,' 'Stop, you whores' (to the nuns), 'You'll be
sorry,' and the like.
"Julia also exhibited
enormous strength. Despite the religious sisters and three others
holding her down with all their might, they struggled to restrain her.
Remarkably, for about 30 minutes, she actually levitated about half a
foot in the air."
The purpose of Gallagher's
paper, he says, is to "document a contemporary and clear-cut case of
demonic possession." He explains that even those who doubt such a
phenomenon exists may find this case "rather persuasive."
"Possession is only one and
not the most common type of demonic attack. Possession is very rare,
though not as exceedingly so as many imagine," he concludes. "So-called
'oppression,' or 'infestation,' is less rare, though hardly frequent
either, and sometimes more difficult to discern accurately."

Re: Real-life case of demon possession documented by artberry on Monday, March 17, 2008 (CDT) (User Info | Send a Message) http://www.artberry.net | And interesting case. But it's interesting to note how cases of possession differ according to cultural and religious background. E.g there are numerous examples of jin possession in Islamic cultures. Which are e.g. documented on Youtube.
Of course given that most people who get possessed seem to have religious beliefs connected with some kind of organised religion. This is hardly a good advertisement for organised religion.
Given that many organised religions exist on the assumption there is a separation between man and God and teach a specific way by which people can access God. The basis of their power is essentially the denial of the Holy spirit and the deity of "The son of Man" That to all intents and purposes means such organised religions represent the spirit of the anti-Christ and would appear to be entirely blasphemous and vain.
Should it therefore be surprising that people that are drawn into these ideas of separation and denial of their holy birthright fall victim to demonic possession?
Because they are taught if they don't go to church or follow certain specific rules they are damned to Hell, so are essentially cursed by the very thing that is supposed to represent salvation.
Mark 10:14 says:
" 14But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God."
Which ever way one interprets the term "Kingdom of God" or "Kingdom of heaven" as meaning either the Church or the Universe itself. There is no separation implied in this passage. In fact it implies Children are of God. Since every one is born at a young age this implies there is no separation in fact Christ expresses displeasure at the attempted separation. So the fact Catholics baptise Babies is totally unnecessary and based on a false premise.
