Catholic Church Tells Priests Not to Try Exorcising the Coronavirus


Grim Reaper 6

Recommended Posts

The pandemic has driven people to try just about anything to stay healthy, including those horse de-wormers. Others have even decided that only the supernatural can help them. Catholic priests have seen a massive upsurge in faithful calling on them to perform exorcisms to drive out the coronavirus. But the Church has now dashed the believers’ hopes of a quick prayer treatment. The 15th annual Course on Exorcism and Prayer of Liberation — the Vatican-sanctioned and Pope-blessed exorcism conference — took place in Rome in October. During the conference, the Catholic Church explicitly told priests not to try and exorcise COVID-19.“We were told under no circumstance should we perform the rite on a COVID patients. 

In fact, some Church officials have publicly rebuked rogue priests that have tried to drive out the COVID devil at their own discretion. Fernanda Alfieri, an instructor at the University of Bologna who lectures on the intersection of science and religion, pointed out the case of Father Rolando Ablong in the Philippines. Ablong sent exorcists armed with holy water around his parish to exorcise COVID patients. Multiple high-ranking authorities in Rome said he violated Church doctrine on the line between physical health and “true demonic possession. Finally, Pope Francis himself may be partially responsible for the exorcism craze. While his predecessor, Benedict XVI, described Satan as a vague force of evil, Pope Francis has used more personal language when referring to the devil.

Almost all churches are strictly enforcing the mask wearing. Catholic churches are probably the most strict. They were the first on it, and are still doing it. I don't even think they are legally obligated to do it anymore, but they take pride in enforcing the mask. This is the same for most Protestant churches.  

1 Corinthians 9

Quote

8Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? 9For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? 10Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. 11If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? 12If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ. 13Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? 14Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
