The Social Aspect of Exorcism

Summary/Abstract: The existence of Satan, who may even nowadays possess an object, a place or a person with God’s consent, is widely recognised within the Christian Church. Demonic tormenting of a person may manifest itselfeither by means of an ordinary action (temptation) or an extraordinary action (upto possession). In the presence of so varied, more and more sublime forms of temptation,both the ability to identify the presence of the Evil One in the world and the need not to disregard his power are crucial.
