Wouldn’t be great of 20,000 went out to the White House to perform an exorcism?

“The rise in demonic activity can be attributed to a decreasing faith among individuals, coupled with an increase in curiosity and participation in occult activity such as Ouija boards and seances, Cascioli said.”

It’s also due to the weeds not wanting to be burned and they are trying to hide in the good crop.

It’s not quite that simple with the real nasty ones.

True enough. The disciples had trouble with some of them, IIRC.

Today, I'm researching Catholic ways/prayers/whatever, to bless this house. We are Catholics and go to mass every week.

Here are some ways Marcella:

Also:

St. Benedict’s medals [blessed by a priest] and placed (nailed) above the doors of your home.

Have salt blessed by a priest (we use Himalayan pink course salt as it stays in place better, but any salt will do) and then set it on top of your doorjambs.

Use holy water frequently in your home, remembering to “display” it in a font, as opposed to just keeping the bottle in a closet, etc.

Have candles blessed by a priest and light them from time to time (to clear the air). :)

Do you also burn fish hearts to keep demons away?

“Do you also burn fish hearts to keep demons away?”

No. Nothing like this has ever happened to me. Many on this forum know me to be a sensible person, not a fruit cake as you presume to suggest.

Happenings:
A man’s voice, twice, when there is no one there. Three times, a shadow moving across a room and disappearing, one of those times a man’s voice said, “Here” and the shadow disappeared. Twice, seeing my partner in the kitchen while I’m walking toward the kitchen, then he disappears. A box of dog treats not close to the edge of the counter, but it falls off and slides across the floor. Bought items disappear from the pantry and have to buy them again to have any. Pennies, dimes, quarters appear where there was no money there. Pennies are more common. Other occurrences have happened besides these examples.

You can’t say none of that happened, because it did and another penny was found yesterday where there was no money there. Today, a bottle that was in the pantry isn’t there today and neither of us had touched that bottle after putting it in there.

I’d call your pastor and see if he wants to come out and take a look. Also, every diocese has an official exorcist, I think. Your diocese could send him out, perhaps.

If you have any stuff that could be occult, it’s time to give it the heave-ho. Gotten any unusual gifts lately? A friend of a friend (I know— how reliable is that??) had a piece of furniture from Asia, like maybe Nepal. Our parish associate went to their house to investigate their weird goings on, at their request. He identified the occult stuff happening in her house as coming from this object— like it was cursed or something. He told the family to get rid of it if they wanted this to stop. They refused. So nothing improved.

Marcella I believe you.I had stuff happen when I had to make a spiritual decision.It lasted a month.It was recommended that I have a Deacon come over.We prayed together and the same thing had happened to him.He was like me and couldn’t decide.He told me make a decision and it will stop.So I did and the events stopped.We had our daughter’s room covered in fly’s when she came home from school.Three knocks on a door while I was praying and nobody was in the house and scratching my name on wood .It said other stuff.More things happened that I don’t want to post.It all stopped.I will pray.

It's the Catholic Bible that includes that passage about burning fish hearts to chase away demons and keep them away. Why would you then refer to "fruit cake"? It's in the Catholic Bible.

So . . . this Pope is going to start claiming that non-socialists and “climate change deniers” are demon-possessed now?

Did your friend ever experience anything like this in the house before you moved there?
