Hitler and Stalin were possessed by the Devil, says Vatican exorcist

Vatican - “I am convinced that the Nazis were all possessed.
“You can tell by their behaviour and their actions, from the horrors they
committed and the atrocities that were committed on their orders.
That’s why we need to defend society from demons.”
According to secret Vatican documents recently released wartime pontiff Pope
Pius XII attempted a “long distance” exorcism of Hitler which failed to have
any effect.
Father Amorth said: “It’s very rare that praying and attempting to carry out
an exorcism from distance works.
“Of course you can pray for someone from a distance but in this case it
would not have any effect.
“One of the key requirements for an exorcism is to be present in front of
the possessed person and that person also has to be consenting and willing.
“Therefore trying to carry out an exorcism on someone who is not present, or
consenting and willing would prove very difficult.
“However I have no doubt that Hitler was possessed and so it does not
surprise me that Pope Pius XII tried a long distance exorcism.”
In the past Father Amorth has also spoken out against the Harry Potter
books, claiming that reading the novels of the teen wizard open children’s
minds to dabbling with the occult and black magic. Father Amorth, who is
president of the International Association of Exorcists, said of the JK
Rowling books:”Behind Harry Potter hides the signature of the king of the
darkness, the devil.”
He said that Rowling’s books contain innumerable positive references to
magic, “the satanic art” and added the books attempt to make a false
distinction between black and white magic, when in fact, the distinction
“does not exist, because magic is always a turn to the devil.”
Father Amorth is said to have carried out more than 30,000 exorcisms in his
career and his favourite film is, according to Italian newspapers The
Exorcist.
Asan addendum to my previous: given the grandee materialist must hold that
the likes of possession, the devil, Nazis, etc do not exist, that (is) they
have no analytical status other than than of nothingness (no thing-ness)
which means speech about such nothingness is analytically equivalent to
being nothing (philosophically), then pray why does the priest of
materialism even mention such nothingnesses (thus becoming nothing, silent,
in his own terms)? Speaking philosophically about what does not exist (for
such materialism) is to not exist oneself (as a philosopher holding speech
about only what does exist as at all anything other than nonsense). If only
the materialist had an inkling of the courage of his convictions (especially
considering they are articulated with such great force and regularity)…
then he and his speech would exist (be good speech) in his own terms, and
thus could be considered with some degree of seriousness (which would be a
good thing indeed).
