ReplyDeleteReligion can drive many people to make drastic choices. In an attempt to remove evil spirits, a "loving" mother is willing to harm her own blood.
ReplyDeleteCrazy. I agree sounds like the mom has serious issues.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of someone killing someone because of an exorcism, I don't really believe in exorcisms.
