I'm assuming the unusual activity over the skies of Lake Erie didn't happen for a seventh night in a row?

I like the idea that aliens are up there debating whether they should fulfill our ideas of 2012, or whether they should wait till 2013 incase they seem a little bit cliche.
Meanwhile if you disagree with the Vatican you are possessed by the Devil. I wonder if mild upset counts. The Devil sure is active these days. Then again, what good is an enemy if he is not on your doorstep.
So was God present in the last Harry Potter film, working against the Devil and slowing down the films pace, making fans feel it was not the best in the series?
Do you think you can use the idea of a super-enemy turning the minds of you pure-followers to deny responsibility?

Ah yes, that's it. All our troubles keep repeating so that these aliens can produce 4-D "movies", that show how we keep repeating our mistakes. In 4-D, they can see all of it at once, it's really very artistic who the repetitions of the same simple patterns produce hyper-patterns. Like carpets, only more so.

I find this mildly amusing. The Devil is hiding in the Vatican! Isn't the chief exorcist a little Johnny-come-lately on this? After all, Protestant denominations have been making this charge since, oh, the 16th century! Nothing gets past the Holy See.
If this kind of piercing perception and crackerjack efficiency is a requirement for the Catholic clergy, they need to start recruiting among major league referees and postal workers.
OK, I've had enough fun at the Church's expense. From this guy's description of an exorcism, I'm wondering why he doesn't start his own YouTube channel. It would be a solid hit.

How marvelous to denounce Satan as the culprit of all their mistakes. Did Satan tell Ratzinger that he needed to cover up for the paedophile priest while he was still an archbishop?
No need to invoke supernatural agency for their downfall. All this they brought upon themselves, and it took decades in the making.
It's not the depth of the rabbit hole that bugs me...
