POPE'S EXORCISM MAKES MAN THROW UP
VATICAN CITY - Is Pope Francis an exorcist? The question has
bubbled up ever since Francis laid his hands on the head of a
young man in a wheelchair after celebrating Sunday Mass in St.
Peter's Square. The young man heaved deeply a half-dozen times,
shook, levitated, spun his head a full 360 degrees, and hurled
a torrent of greenish vomit into the Pope's face.
The television station of the Italian bishops' conference
reported Monday that it had surveyed exorcists, who agreed there
was "no doubt" that Francis either performed an exorcism or a
prayer to free the man from the devil.
Experts said Francis' obsession with the devil is a
reflection both of his Jesuit spirituality and his Latin
American roots in the Argentina dirty war, where he
has been identified publicly as an ally of Argentine's murderous,
repressive leaders during a time when some 30,000 people were
"disappeared" many stripped naked, chained together, flown out
over the River Plate or the Atlantic Ocean and pushed
sausage-like out of planes to drown.
"The devil's influence and presence in the world seems to
fluctuate in quantity inversely proportionate to the presence of
Christian faith," said the Rev. Robert Gahl, a moral theologian
at Rome's Pontifical Holy Cross University.
In contrast, the renowned Hindu scholar and meditation master,
Vinaya Ponloop Rinpoche, expressed a belief that although no
such deity as a "devil" existed, that "evil" such as pedophilia,
bigotry, fascism, etc, seemed to flourish historically wherever
and whenever the Catholic Church tried to butt in, which was
essentially everywhere, all the time.
"This evil", explained Vinaya, "appears to be directly, exponentially
proportional to the summation of the diagonal matrix products
and their linear coefficients, depending approximately on the
numbers of bishops, nuns and priests in the proximity."
Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi noted that
placement of the pope's hands on the young man's head was the
"typical position" for an exorcist to use.
However, the unidentified young man, Mr. Dominic Boffo, explained
that his vomiting was only because he was so appalled at the
absurdity of it all, and that the green vomit was due only to the
spinach salad which he had for lunch and which had not agreed
with him.
