Exorcist Convention

Just saw this on Reuters:

'At the end of his weekly general audience on Wednesday Pope Benedict greeted Italian exorcists who, he disclosed, are currently having their national convention, presumably in Rome.
The Pope encouraged them to "carry on their important work in the service of the Church."
Problem was, that until the Pope spoke, few people outside the inner circle knew that a convention of Beelzebub busters was going on, presumably in Rome.
And where are they holding it? A church, a hotel, a graveyard?
"They try to keep these things quiet," said a Catholic professor who has dealings with exorcists.'


What a fascinating idea! Can you imagine what its like at an exorcism convention? Are there glamour-gals handing out free crucifixes with novelty pen attachments? Is there a lonely guy trying to pitch his innotative holy-water dispenser with built in pedometre? Do they have live demon-strations where Linda Blair is repeatedly cleansed? Are there complementary projectile vomit shields? Is there a dinner and dance in the evening where the cardinals can let their cassocks down?

These are questions that need to be answered!
