Default Re: Exorcisms

To answer your question, yes it would prove God, so long as the evil is clearly from a supernatural source.

To be practical, there are very few documented cases of exorcism.

In the good old days, it took six or seven years of formation to become a priest. Year three was the year when one was ordained an exorcist. So technically, any priest can perform the rites, or even a non priest: a cleric.

However, many may not be experienced enough or psychologically fit to do so. There was a recent meeting of about 200 exorcist students from around the world at the Vatican recently. I can assure you, if they ever face a real possession case in their lifetime, they will be toast.
