VATICAN CITY - Orthodontists have national conventions, as do lawyers and computer salespeople. So why not exorcists?
At the end of his weekly general audience on Wednesday Pope Benedict greeted Italian exorcists who, he disclosed, are currently holding their national convention.
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 were they holding it? In a church, a hotel, a graveyard?
They try to keep these things quiet, said a Catholic professor who has dealings with exorcists.
