When Forced Treatment Just Ain't Enough

Then you've got to go for the old forced exorcism. It's highly efficacious for chasing off demons, according to four out of five Popes whose views were recently dug up in a new meta study. The study's result were shouted on the streets of New York by the Rev. Cotton Fullafit.

"A common myth these days is that people who have been possessed by demons oppose assisted exorcism. Some of the most outspoken support for assisted exorcism (AE) actually comes from people who have experienced the ravages of demonic possession firsthand. These people support the idea of imposing exorcisms on people who don't know that they want them. They hope that if they ever become possessed again, their friends and relatives will be able to call upon the services of an exorcist to free them, no matter how much the demons inside may cause them to object."

Fuller Torrey of the Treatment Advocacy Center couldn't have put it any better.

And, yes, I am just goofing around. For some reason, my email was down and I couldn't retrieve my day's Google alerts for fodder. Happily, a reader who seems to get my sense of humor had just passed along a link to a very inventive spoof piece.

Torrey and Franklin Graham have created a new treatment plan:

Forced medication and exorcism from demon possession, all bases are covered, and mental illness finally has the cure society wants. Wait, does Torrey wear a collar?

I always spell his name "Fullofit" when I spoof him but I think I like "Fullafit" better. Hmm. I dunno, exorcism or outpatient commitment, what to choose...I think I would choose exorcism......
