Slow down.
Doesnt this guy believe himself that he's possessed? If thats the case then surely its his right to request an exocism. Trying to force a gay lifestyle on him is as bad as people trying to force correction on him.
Its his choice and we must respect his decision.
To quote you: slow down.
Why does this man think he's possessed? Because a preacher has told him he is, because he's been convinced he is. Preacher's that do that are lying to people and they are causing deep spiritual and psychological harm. Any sense of a 'demon' is entirely down to that preacher. He didn't come to this conclusion on his own.
There's this thing called a self fulfilling prophecy and I think stuff like this is just that. People get told over and over there's something wrong with them and they start to believe it, which leads to negative outcomes.
Personally I have a massive problem with these people. they have no problem deeply harming others and they get away with it. I don't think they should be able to. I just wonder how many people have to suffer for something to be done.
His choice was made under a completely false premise, which makes it hard to respect. I feel sorry for him and others like him, because you know what? All these things do is harm them and make them throw away their true self.
