Are you asking about exorcisms themselves? There we can start from the simple use of Holy Water to drive away the devil and his minions from our home when they are present and wish to tempt us, all the way to the formal Rite of Exorcism found in official Rituals of the Church.[/quote:lrzznpko]
Can anyone preform an Exorcism if they believe one is possesed or must they call a local priest? If a Protestant or one not of Christianity believes that a loved one is possesed, does a priest have the right to dismiss them and not preform the rite for them?
