I never said otherwise. I only know my own heart. But the bible says Judge not lest ye be judged - Matthew 7:1-5 and I try to live by that.

Oh I understand and I wasn't saying anything about you, just speaking in general terms.

That verse you quoted is a good one on the need to keep yourself from sin...but it does not mean not to judge as is commonly quoted as meaning. The context of that verse is that do not engage in sins and call out those sins in others. In others, keep your house clean first before pointing at other houses. It's really such an abused proof-text that many (not talking about you) try to use to justify living in sin with no accountability or moral structure.

I have worked at the state forensic psychiatric hospital in Louisiana and I have it on pretty good authority that exorcisms have been performed there on occasion. There are buildings on that campus that have seen and harbored true evil over the hospital's nearly 200 year history and you can feel it when you're there. I can't describe the feeling and never experienced anything supernatural there myself but it's just an unsettling vibe.

Is wiki really a reliable source?

I just started listening to him. I like his long format, how he just listens, and he has interesting guest. Our society is full of dullards who have the attention span of a 2 year old. Sometimes, it’s ok/good to listen and not be sensationally entertained. Just listened to the Schlep episode. Rough one to listen to, but Shawn seems to want to do something about child predators and pedos. If you can’t support someone who has a platform like his who wants to expose and destroy that contingent of society…… welll, not sure what to say man.

No, it’s not.
