 Good point Senorita. I'd have to agree completely with you
   
 That's basically what Demonic possession has always been. Multiple Personality Disorder, Schizophrenia and Tourettes Syndrome. Unfortunately the Catholic Church can't seem to accept this and prolong the agony and the myth with ridiculous exorcisms.
 
 Certain poisonings by herbs, mushrooms and cereal infection have also been found to be the root cause of Demonic Possession and accusations of Witchcraft.

                                | In the case of Anneliese Michel it was very sad that her own faith, her family's faith and the medieval cure that the church imposed on her led to her unfortunate death. This case had nothing to do with demons or anything supernatural, this was a crime of faith, of ignorance and the catholic church is implicated very strongly in it.
 
 Why am I not surprised.
