More than 100 Ugandan students were sent home from school this week after they mysteriously became hysterical, it is being reported by news24.com.

Point of reference is always a plus.

They might be hungry. My little girl flings her arms around and rolls all over the floor yelling when she smells dinner and she’s hungry.

Uganda? Probably immigrants from France, rather than native Ugandans.

There are things that happen in Africa that would scare the Crap out of you if you are not under the authority of Jesus.

I bet if they checked the trashbins carefully, they would find a large number of empty M&M bags and candy bar wrappers.....

I know what Reeses' Cups does for me!

Mods reguired very short excerpt ... only one paragraph, likely to comply with Fox News Com rules ... they may need to remove your additional content added to the body of the thread for legal reasons.

Lovely ...

More than 100 students in a western Ugandan school become possessed by demonic spirits, Uganda’s state-run newspaper reported on Tuesday.

...

Belief in witchcraft was common in some parts of Uganda, particularly in deeply religious areas.

Yes, yes, send your poor, hungry and now possessed to the U.S.. We’ll take anything - terrorist, possessed - you name it - because “diversity” makes us strong.

Sounds like a good place for some hardcore missionary work with alot of prayer and fasting first.

Actually I have heard stories from missionaries about demon possession in Africa. Including a first-hand account here in the U.S.A.

I guess I should have said second-hand. It was my pastor that witnessed and was involved in the event.
