EXORCISM DEATH TOLL RISES WHILST THE AUTHORITIES BUMBLE
Yet another tragic SAFF prophecy has come true with
the death of poor Kyhra Ishaq who was apparently starved to death by her
fanatical parents because they believed she was possessed by an evil spirit.
This is how the Sun reported it:
Seven Years ago (see full report in right-hand column) we alerted the public, and the authorities to
the growing number of
persecutions of children by spiritual fanatics from Christianity and Islam but to their
undying shame the child scare industry was too busy chasing phantom Satanists and occupying
police time with bogus cases.
Four years later the decrepit media of the U.K. began to see we were right and
began looking at the issue,
but typically,
the Othodoxy Blind-Spot kicked in and the Media blamed it all on West African 'Jungle Ju-Ju'
portraying radical Christian and Islamic ministers as 'Witch-doctors' instead of Christians and Moslems who
were viciously re-interpeting their Holy Books.
The cry went up! 'Save the Witch-Children'
They didn't cry 'Save the Kids from twisted self-styled Christian Pastors'.
They didn't cry 'Why are Christian and Moslem Leaders allowing religious radicals to abuse and kill
children in the name of their religions?'
And so the torture and abuse was yet again swept under the carpet whilst the-powers-that-be wait for another
shedload of dead kids to pile up before they do something about it.
The SAFF has tracked the growth of fundamentalist fanaticism from the main orthodox religions
for over twenty years. We were the FIRST to campaign against the
mammoth hidden abuse by Priests and
the Clergy (see here) which was institutionally covered up and hidden from the public's view in favour of chasing
the phantom of Satanic Ritual Child Abuse which, in the course of time, turned out simply to be a
smoke-screen to hide the ugly excesses of child abusing priests and pastors.
We named and shamed the major religions twenty years ago and they did nothing.
Over the past ten years thousands of cases have come to light in the U.S. and in
Ireland where recently an official report (The Ryan Report)
roundly condemned the Irish Government and the Irish Catholic
Church for actually colluding to hide unbelievable numbers of cases of the priestly abuse of children
from the public.
It is now absoutely impossible for any Christian to deny that these things happen or deny
that Clergy Abuse is an endemic problem. Many hundreds of those
kids need not have suffered if the authorities had listend to what we were saying but the British Establishment is so shot
through with prejudice and bigotry that they would sooner give millions of pounds worth of taxpayers money
to activists in the Child Scare Industry who repay their benfactors by promoting fictional ideas about
irrational enemies of the State. The Devil Made Them Do it!
What did the Church of England do when we aimed our campaign squarely at them?
They started a countrywide campaign to try to ban Halloween because
they say it is 'dangerous' to children!
Ha! Kids being killed by Christians under their noses and they prefer to harrangue Halloween. You get the
picture. Their attitude, and the attitude of the media in Britain today is nothing short of despicable, yet only the
SAFF has the courage to tell the truth and here it is:
If just ten percent of the resources that the Child Scare Industry has thrown at the phantom of
Satanic Ritualised Child Abuse were diverted to unearthing despicable men and women who disguise their evil
by passing it off as justified by the Bible or the Koran we could erradicate cases like poor Khyra Ishaq and
probably save the lives of hundreds of children almost overnight.
Instead I suppose we are going to have to put up with the usual hypocritical spectacle of a
public enquiry
where the government, the social services, the child charities and the media conjoin in a communal
wailing and gnashing of teeth to produce yet another set of revamped guidelines which social workers will
ignore as quickly as the last.
Hello! Is anyone listening?

MORE BLOOD ON THE HANDS OF THE BRITISH MEDIA!
A Muslim woman disemboweled her daughter as a sacrifice to God after she became convinced the four-year-old was possessed by spirits,
the Old Bailey heard. Shayma Ali, 36, stabbed the girl up to 40 times and took out her liver while Koranic verses played in
the background.
When police arrived at their east London home, Ali was heard chanting: 'I seek refuge in God from the curse of Satan'.
Shayma Ali admitted stabbing her daughter and cutting out her liver to 'exorcise evil spirits'
Ali was found covered in blood rocking back and forward in the lounge of her home, with the child's liver on the carpet.
She had become obsessed that the child was possessed by a Jinn, a spirit referred to in the Koran which can occupy humans and animals.
Duncan Atkinson, prosecuting, said Ali had become an increasingly devout follower of Islam after a trip to Egypt in 2009.
'She became particularly pre-occupied by the idea of possession by a thing call a Jinn ... and she talked constantly about evil
spirits and the belief that her daughter was possessed. Atkinson told the Old Bailey Ali became increasingly
obsessed with exorcising the evil spirits....she 'talked constantly about evil spirits' and the belief that her daughter was possessed.
Ali later told a psychiatrist she had been praying when she began to think about sacrificing a child 'as proof of her love of God'.

Fundamentalist agitators invent the satanic scares from religious psychoses.
Therapists and the child-scare industry jump on the bandwagon for an easy hit and
encourage the fantasies.
The Xist British Media dutifully exaggerate the shock-horror cases whilst cynical politicians wring their hands in despair on
the sidelines...... and all the while, quietly in the background the intellectual poison produced by their wicked minds preys on
the religious psychotics who have been failed by the mental health system. Dangerous people who take on board the lies and
irresponsible portrayals of the Satan Hunters, ready to justify butchering their four year old children in the name of their
god in a catharsis which could have been easily avoided if the corrupt journalists of the British Media had only limited themselves to
their professional duty. The popularisation of exorcism by the BBC Everyman team has left a legacy which will claim
many more victims yet.....and not a witch or satanist in sight......

Woman killed son in botched exorcism then kept his body in plastic bag to be resurected
Latisha Lawson choked her son Jeziah to death 'to exorcise the devil in him'
Latisha Lawson, 31, forced her two-year-old son Jezaih to drink a vile mixture of
olive oil and vinegar as part of a ritual to drive the devil from his body.
As he choked on the liquid she held her hand over his mouth to stop him vomiting and crushed his neck.
Jurors heard Lawson had wanted to drive a demon named as "Marzon" from her son's body.
She had become convinced that her son was possessed and blamed herself because she did not profess her
love for God while she was pregnant.
Police said Lawson kept Jezaih's body in a plastic sack for more than a year after his November 2009
death until she was arrested. Lawson said she was convinced her son was possessed by demons
as his behaviour had changed.
"I knew and believe I was interacting with a demon at that time," Lawson said.
She said she kept her son's body as she was convinced her son would be resurrected after his death
"I went in and just asked God to bring him back," she said.
"He did it in the Bible. He did it with Lazarus. He did it with a child in the Bible."

An evangelist church leader who tortured his 10-year-old daughter and kept her prisoner for four days
with no food because he was convinced she was a witch was jailed for eight-and-a-half years today.
The twisted 39-year-old, dripped boiling hot plastic over his terrified daughter's feet and beat

On another occasion the man cut his daughter's shoulder with a knife and smashed her head against a wall
before standing on her face.
The man sat impassively in the witness box and at points laughed when the crimes against his daughter
was read out.

CHURCH MEMBERS JAILED AFTER EXORCISM KILLS TEEN
A French Guyana court has sentenced four members of the Celestial Church of Christ
on Wednesday for performing an exorcism on an epileptic teen in 2005 that ended
in his death. Bosse was tortured for three days by church members, who slapped him,
beat him with reeds and straps and he was attached to a cross for the final two
nights before his death.
Bosse's mother, approached church members at the end of 2004 in order to get treatment for
her son, who she considered "possessed by the devil." They decided to exorcise him.
The head of the parish, Maurice Sainte-Pierre, discovered him dead, gagged, and still attached to the cross.
The autopsy revealed multiple bruises, a large hematoma over one eye and blows to the head.
Sainte-Pierre was sentenced to 12 years in prison, while the others were handed down
sentences of 9, 7 and 3 years, including two with suspended sentences.
The Celestial Church of Christ was founded in Benin in 1947, and claims millions
of followers worldwide.

Preacher Guilty In Boy's Exorcism Death
By Dave Reynolds, Inclusion Daily Express
July 9, 2004
MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN--After deliberating just four hours, a jury convicted Ray Anthony
Hemphill with felony physical abuse of a child causing great bodily harm in the
suffocation death of 8-year-old Terrance Cottrell Jr.
The boy's father told reporters the ruling was "minor justice", adding that he
thought prosecutors should have charged Hemphill with manslaughter or murder.
Ray Hemphill, 47, was ordained as a pastor of the Faith Temple Church of the
Apostolic Faith. Hemphill told police on the night of August 22, 2003 that
he had been holding a series of special prayer services, described
by some as exorcisms, over the previous three weeks to remove
"evil spirits" of autism from Cottrell. Hemphill, who weighed
157 pounds, described how he would sit or lay on "Junior's"
chest for up to two hours at a time, whispering into the boy's
ear for the "demons" to leave his body.

Six Year Old Girl Killed During Exorcism
Sixth Child Death due to Exorcism in past few years
ATLANTA, Jan. 20, 2004
Exorcism Suspected In Child Death
6-Year Old Found Severely Beaten, Stabbed, Strangled In Atlanta
By John Esterbrook
(CBS/AP) A 6-year-old girl found dead in a motel room had been strangled, stabbed, beaten and
covered in pages torn from a Bible, possibly in an attempt to "undemonize" her, police said Tuesday.
Christopher Carey, 29, and his wife Valerie, 27, were charged
with murder. The husband was later transferred to jail.
The older child provided detectives with information that led investigators to the
motel where the 6-year-old was discovered, police spokesman Sgt. John Quigley said.
Quigley said the adults indicated they were conducting a ritual that "had something
to do with undemonizing the child."
If the girl was the victim of an exorcism, hers would be at least the sixth such
death in the past nine years.

Five and Eight Year Old Exorcised to Death By Christian Pastor
Children die in religious rite: Tuesday 14 February 2012 00:53
South Korean police have arrested a 43-year-old church
pastor and his wife who confessed to beating their three young
children to death in an attempt to cleanse them of their illnesses and
sins.
Police said the children, aged five, eight and ten, were found with
their heads shaved and their parents kneeling beside them in a house
used as a church. They were found in Boseong, a village in the south,
on Saturday.
South Korean media reports said the “pastor” and his wife had a
congregation of ten followers and said they had locked up their
children – two sons and a daughter – on 24 January after they became
sick with colds.
The couple beat each child with a belt and fly-swatter 39 times in the
morning and 39 times in the evening.

Fundie Nut Uses Kitchen-Table-Surgery on Four Year Old Son
A Vancouver-area father has been found guilty after botching a home-circumcision attempt on his four-year-old son as
part of a spiritual quest to make things right with God.
The former Jehovah's Witness, who was trying to follow a literal interpretation of
the Bible after a series of misfortunes hit his family.
During the trial, the Court heard that in 2002 he began the
religious quest that eventually led him to believe that both he and son
needed to be circumcised to celebrate Passover.
His first attempt to circumcise himself ended up with his foreskin
turning black and only part of it cut off. When he couldn't stop the
bleeding, he called an ambulance, and a doctor in a hospital emergency
room ended up stitching up the bleeding wound.
The man later returned to the internet for more research and met some other
religious fundamentalists, who were also dog breeders. They advised him they
used a veterinary powder called BloodStop to halt any bleeding when they
circumcised their 13-year-old son .
When asked in court whether the man used ice to ease the boy's pain, he replied,
"Where would the Israelites have found ice?"
He then applied Blood Stop, gave the boy some ice cream and told him
he could watch whatever movies he wanted that week, before heading off to church.

THE EVILS OF
EXORCISM
When another child is beaten to death will the staff
of Everyman take their share of the responsibility for legitimising the Evil
of Exorcism?
The BBC allows sectarian fundamentalist's full
reign to promote their mediaeval claptrap under the cover of 'religious
broadcasting (Everyman's The Exorcist, 9.00pm Wednesday 16th January
2002 : BBC2. ) .
Even though many innocent children and adults
have been killed by exorcism.
Even though the Church of England is already
aware of dangers like these:
-
In 1990 A schoolgirl was torn to death after a 48 hour
exorcism ritual when her mother tried to rip a non-existent foetus from the
11 year old after she became convinced the child had fallen pregnant by the
Devil.
-
In August 1993 a religious group in Leeds was reported
for trying to use exorcism as a specific to 'cure' epilepsy. Who knows how
many epileptics suffered at their hands.
-
In 1994 Three people were convicted for the manslaughter
of a 22 year old woman who was beaten, and kicked for three days in an exorcism
to supposedly drive out the devil.
-
In 1996 A woman was killed after being jumped on after
a minister had spent several days exorcising her trying to cast out demons.
The 53 year old woman had originally complained of severe headaches and abdominal
pains.
-
In 1997 a Harrow social worker took fundamentalist
Christians into a woman's home to exorcise demons from her son who has a
severe brain disorder.
THE GAWBER EXORCISM:
Perhaps the most celebrated case, which caused the
Church of England to completely revamp its rules, was where a man who
had been made insane through exorcism killed his wife by tearing her face
apart until she choked to death on her own blood.
The killer was a member of a local church whose leaders
became convinced he was possessed. They subjected him to a day and
a night of exorcism. Under this maltreatment the man became violent and was
then taken to a Cof E vicar whose involvement only made things worse. The
vicar eventually called in Methodist Ministers supposedly 'skilled' in exorcism
to exorcise the man again. Twelve hours later when the 'exorcists' became
mentally and physically exhausted, the man was told that 40 demons had been
exorcised but the Spirit of Murder remained. Whereupon he was taken home
to his poor wife. In a fit of insane violence brought on by the exorcism,
he murdered her with his bare hands.
This completely avoidable tragedy was a direct result
of the exorcism. Exorcisms like the ones Everyman are causing to be legitimised.
An expert witness, consultant psychologist Hugo Milne, was asked by the judge
at the Gawber trial whether the exorcism had caused the man to kill. Mr Milne
said :
"It was entirely related to his trance state and
his eventual killing of his wife. It caused it.".
The judge accepted that view in his summing up and
also made clear that the man had been a loving husband who had been exorcised
into committing an unforgivable act of murder completely out of character.
Incarcerating him in a mental institution the judge said he now had
to live with the knowledge that he had deprived his three small children
of their mother and father. His defence counsel railed at the fact
that the people who had caused the exorcism were not charged and made it
clear that he thought they should be imprisoned with the husband as accessories.
After the trial , which got nationwide publicity, the
CofE published new guidelines and set up 'official' exorcists in each diocese.
The idea of course was to intercept and control the mediaeval idiocities
of 'maverick' vicars. This can be clearly seen when, a year later,
the Archbishop of Canterbury's office condemned impromptu exorcisms by a
CofE vicar in a church near Gawber. The clergyman eventually resigned.
People's memories are very short and today the original
intent behind those rules is being misrepresented by a new wave of exorcists.
What were restrictions are being passed off as 'guidelines'
developed to cope with what they see as the 'increasing need for
exorcisms'. A need which does not really exist but which is fuelled by
irresponsible programs of this low calibre.
The 'star exorcist' of the Everyman program, Tom Willis,
Ex CofE vicar, is plainly aware of the history and dangers of exorcism. In
1996 Willis was quoted in a critical article in the CofE Church
Times under the headline EXORCISM CAN BE DANGEROUS and
which discussed the misuse of exorcism. Cannon Dominic Walker warned that
exorcism is now being applied indiscriminately for any type of problem .
He had discovered that victims of sexual abuse had been summarily exorcised.
They had been despicably told 'if you've been abused then you are demonised'.
In defence of his own position Willis said
'I don't do many exorcisms of people, but I do
about 30 or so exorcisms of buildings a year, ...a number of Clergy had performed
exorcisms where psychological help might have been more appropriate. '
Willis omitted to define what situations were 'appropriate'
for exorcisms nor how one would obtain skill in identifying them, but he
did criticise the Church of England's 'guidelines' saying they were 'vague'.
This measured response contrasts with a newspaper piece
on 17th February 1995 where he was billed as an 'Occult Expert'
and head of a training course for exorcists being held in Scarborough.
Regardless of the 'vagueness' of the CofE guidelines Willis had been
able to train ten other CofE vicars in exorcism at this course. The course
covered Hauntings, Poltergeists and finished with 'Occult Practices and
Oppression'; all key motifs of the Christian Fundamentalists' war wagon.
Indeed, when Sue Macgregor did a piece on it
for Radio 4 she countered that doctors and psychotherapists said that those
who thought they were demon-possessed needed medical treatment. Not
neccessarily so, said the Reverend Kevin Logan. Logan had been
a main-player in the Satanic Ritual Abuse Panic of the 1980s. Famous (amongst
other things), for claiming that 86% of children had suffered some occult
'oppression' and for blessing children (who had supposedly suffered
from satanic contamination ) on camera for that appallingly unprofessional
Cook Report program The Devil's Work, which created most of the Satanic Panic.
Logan said there was a war going on, that the church needs to be able
to cope and learn the 'strategies of the enemy'. Doctors have their place
but so do ministers. '
N.B.: In March 1988, just prior to the Satanic Panic which they
helped start, The Christian Missionary group Reachout, which Logan helped out with and supported was reported as conducting
chain-exorcisms of adults in Rhyll.
Then in Woman's Realm a star exorcee Muriel Scorah
explains how Willis exorcised her from.... Spiritualism. Now Spiritualism
may appear eccentric to some, but it is actually a form of the Christian
religion. Spiritualists go to church, pray to God and hail Jesus as The Messiah.
Here we have another indicator of the inability of exorcists to define
what may and what may not require exorcising. Everyman are irresponsibly
pushing the drama of Exorcism but many of the people whom they are
celebrating clearly have an agenda of intolerance for alternative beliefs.
Tom Willis said he was 'concerned about the growth
of Satanic Groups'. We must remind our readers that Mr Willis
was one of those Christian activists who believed in the since disproven
idea of Satanic Ritual Abuse. He appeared in numerous sensational newspaper
articles which claimed that it existed.
Just as in the case of the poor Gawber woman who had
her face clawed to shreds by a loving husband made insane by exorcism, memories
of the nationwide panic over the myth of Satanic Ritual Abuse (and the 86
children who had their lives destroyed by misguided action by the authorities
) have also faded sufficiently from public view to allow opportunists
at Everyman to peddle this poison yet again.
The situation wouldn't be so dangerous if self-styled
exorcists weren't pro-active but they are VERY active. Exorcism can be clearly
seen as a form of missionary activity. The Christian Counsellor magazine,
the journal of the Waverly College, was at the forefront of promoting the
idea of having 'counsellors' on tap after every traumatic incident. The College
even set some of the benchmarks for the national qualifications for
'counselling', yet in 1992 it published a major article serialised over four
consecutive issues concerning Exorcism as an adjunct to Counselling. Here
we have a clear example of the recruitment of Christian activists to minister
to people who are emotionally vulnerable under the guise of psychological
counselling. Who knows how many poor children and adults have been abused
and sought help from 'counsellors' only to be abused yet again in exorcism
ceremonies of one kind or another.
Perhaps the most appalling thing about BBC's
Everyman is it's cultural and moral blindness. Their view of society is
imperialistic and simplistic. They may acknowledge the token Sikh, Moslem
or Buddhist but appear to think that everyone else is a nominal Christian.
Of what use is a program on Christian Exorcism to Jews, Buddhists, Moslems,
Atheists, Pagans or Voodooists? Are we to assume that non-Christians are
immune to these supposed demons, or will the Christian exorcists interfere
with adherents of non Christian beliefs as well?
The ultimate justification for this program is the
usual ,unspecified, supposed threat of ''evil' for which no proof has ever
been offered. In contradistinction we have the pile of documentary evidence
proving the extensive and terrible harm exorcism can do. It is
mediaeval superstition of the worst kind. This program should not have
been commissioned and questions should be asked as to why it was. It will
undoubtedly be used by the new wave of exorcists as 'further proof' of the
need for more exorcisms - until another Gawber case explodes across the headlines
and the promoters of the barmy idea slip silently out of view again. This
program will definitely result in a glut of vulnerable people rushing to
be exorcised. If recent history is anything to go by a proportion of them
will incur unnecessary suffering in the future and maybe even die in the
process. The fault for that will lie partly at the door of Everyman.
Ends.

And It's Not Just The Loonies In The Fringes of Christianity
From The Times: March 11, 2010
Chief exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth says Devil is in the Vatican
Richard Owen in Rome
Sex abuse scandals in the Roman Catholic Church are proof that that "the Devil is at work inside
the Vatican", according to the Holy See's chief exorcist.
Father Gabriele Amorth, 85, who has been the Vatican's chief exorcist for 25 years and says
he has dealt with 70,000 cases of demonic possession, said that the consequences of satanic
infiltration included power struggles at the Vatican as well as "cardinals who do not believe
in Jesus, and bishops who are linked to the Demon".
Father Amorth, who has just published Memoirs of an Exorcist, a series of interviews with the
Vatican journalist Marco Tosatti, said that the attempt on the life of Pope John Paul II in 1981
had been the work of the Devil, as had an incident last Christmas when a mentally disturbed woman
threw herself at Pope Benedict XVI at the start of Midnight Mass, pulling him to the ground.
Father Amorth told La Repubblica that the devil was "pure spirit, invisible. But he manifests himself
with blasphemies and afflictions in the person he possesses. He can remain hidden, or speak in
different languages, transform himself or appear to be agreeable. At times he makes fun of me."
He said it sometimes took six or seven of his assistants to to hold down a possessed person.
Those possessed often yelled and screamed and spat out nails or pieces of glass, which he kept in a bag.
"Anything can come out of their mouths – finger-length pieces of iron, but also rose petals."
He said that hoped every diocese would eventually have a resident exorcist. Under Church Canon Law
any priest can perform exorcisms, but in practice they are carried out by a chosen few trained in
the rites.
Father Amorth was ordained in 1954 and became an official exorcist in 1986. In the past he has
suggested that Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were possessed by the Devil. He was among Vatican
officials who warned that J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels made a "false distinction between
black and white magic".
He approves, however, of the 1973 film The Exorcist, which although "exaggerated" offered a
"substantially exact" picture of possession.
In 2001 he objected to the introduction of a new version of the exorcism rite, complaining
that it dropped centuries-old prayers and was "a blunt sword" about which exorcists themselves
had not been consulted. The Vatican said later that he and other exorcists could continue to
use the old ritual.
He is the president of honour of the Association of Exorcists.

"Do you know what I would do if I was the Pope for a moment?" Amorth asked.

she heard the devil talking to her....

Two Year Old Child Forced To Undergo Exorcism At The Hands of Christian Nutters
Warning On Child 'Demons'
Exorcisms, (religious rites some think can expel devils from people), are on the rise in Australia.
Michelle Pecoult, from Perth-based non-denominational Christian ministry Set Right, said it did four or five
exorcisms a day and had treated a two-year-old.
The child had "started growling and snarling".
"(The demon) was told to leave and in 20 minutes left. The child didn't know (it had happened)," she said.
The ministry's website claims depression is a "common low-ranking demon" while schizophrenia is "another demon
we have met often and evicted".
Dr Choong-Siew Yong, who represents psychiatry on the Australian Medical Association's federal council, said he was
concerned about untrained practitioners making claims that contradict science. He warned that saying someone was
possessed could reinforce their delusions and stop them getting proper care.
"There is an enormous amount of research that has discredited the idea that people with psychiatric conditions such
as depression and schizophrenia are because of demonic possession," he said.
"Some people with psychotic illnesses do believe that they're possessed, or have strange religious ideas. When they're
assessed by a doctor there will be a diagnosis of mental illness."
Ms Pecoult insisted: "God is greater than any medical doctor. Depression can be a symptom of a demonic power being
in there.
"Jesus dealt with lunatic spirits. They're real. You can't get rid of them by medication. You have to renew your mind."

ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN? THEN WE CHALLENGE YOU TO DEMAND YOUR PRIEST OR VICAR CONVEY YOUR
WISH TO STOP THE PRACTICE OF EXORCISING BABIES AND CHILDREN TO THEIR BISHOPS. JESUS SAYETH, IF YOU REMAIN SILENT
YOU ARE GUILTY OF CONDONING IT.
Jesus said:
Mark 10:14 Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God.15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. 16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
Mt 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mt 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Mt 18:14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
Mr 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
Lu 17:2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
S.A.F.F. PROPHESIES COME TERRIBLY TRUE
POSTSCRIPT: John Freedom's awful prophecy
comes horrifingly true as 8 year old Victoria Climbe is beaten to death
by Christian Fanatics in an Exorcism. Right under the noses
of London Social Workers! Government spends millions on a sack-cloth
and ashes whitewash whilst the Everyman team hide their faces from view.

It's happening world-wide. Look at this:
