Crucified 'exorcism' nun buried

Members of the convent claim Ms Cornici was possessed
A trainee nun who was crucified in an exorcism at a monastery in eastern Romania and left to die has been buried in a religious ceremony.
The novice, Maricica Irina Cornici, died last week after being tied to a cross, gagged and starved.

Principal monk Daniel Petru Corogeanu, who said the novice was possessed by the devil, has been charged with false imprisonment leading to death.

The Orthodox Church has condemned the incident and suspended him.

Father Daniel has so far refused to stop work at the Holy Trinity monastery in Tanacu.

Where are all the hysterical right-to-lifers on this? On the same side with the priest, I'm certain.

It's a "religious" matter, and state should stay out of it....

1. So, will she rise again in three days?

I know, blasphemous. But maybe we should post a guard?

[cheekymonkey]

3. Three days , heck,

we're talking Transylvania here. She's gonna rise at midnight with a mighty thirst for fresh christian blood. That priest and those nuns had better watch their necks, unless the crucifiers were revenants themselves already . :grr:

9. Thanks for posting the link to Minstrel Boy's thread.Perspective's needed.

I'm sure this priest can always get a job as a _Bush advisor.

_Bush is the man who has bonded with Islam Karimov who BOILS people he doesn't like. It's all the same.

6. Is it any wonder that people are leaving the church? This is so...

...stupid! I'm surprised this Medieval Moron didn't burn her at the stake.

"...She was reported to suffer from Schizophrenia. It is thought the symptoms of her condition may have led the priest and other nuns to believe she was possessed by the devil."

7. Why isn't he in jail? nt

8. When are the Terri Scheivo Circus wacko's going to protest this?

Or is it only Americans are allowed a right to life? Possessed my ass! Has anybody bothered to take a look at our pResident and his cabinet lately?

10. Read this months National Geographic....

Gives a good piture of Romania. Stating the obvious, it's still a very backwards nation. Some areas are like stepping into the 18th and 19th centuries.

11. I fully expect Bush to send in Marines to bust this guy out! Although...

With his map-reading skills they'd probably end up in Pennysylvania.

12. Shh! Don't let Bush find out that one treatment for Schizophrenia is

being bound and gagged and tied to a cross. He might try this
here and expand the cure to gays and democrats.
