Chapter 492: Sinister
"I'm sorry, dear Shanna, I don't know how to exorcise demons, and I haven't systematically studied Roman rites or exorcisms, and these abilities are useless against demons and ghosts outside of the Christian system......"
The old priest laughed when he heard this.
"What's more, I can't do it either, no priest can perform an exorcism ritual like this without the consent of the local priest, or the certification of the church people and medical institutions......
"But, I've heard of faith therapy too?"
Rachel also asked at this time, her mind was the same as Shanna's, hoping that she could rely on the power of religion to protect herself. The belief therapy she refers to refers to a therapeutic technique in psychology that is believed to be able to treat a person's mental illness through some classical methods of religious rituals. This has been touted by many people in the past, but later the psychiatric community has not been interested in it.
"Faith therapy, indeed, there are some devout believers who need this method to heal their hearts......"
The old priest sat on the sofa and said indifferently: "But if it is a targeted exorcism, an exorcism ritual for a person who is possessed by demons, has paranoia, or is schizophrenic, then the relevant therapy can only be carried out with the cooperation of the therapist, in the final analysis, this is just an application of psychological treatment techniques." ”
"So, Pastor Fabiu, do you believe that there are demons in this world, or are they demons?" Feng Han suddenly threw a question to the old priest.
"Demons?"
Pastor Fabiu did not refuse to answer, he squinted slightly and pondered, he thought of the shadow of a person, that guy seemed to be the embodiment of malice, if it was that guy, it could indeed be described as "demon".
"Perhaps. It's hard for me to deny the existence of demons, or I wouldn't be able to explain why there are such evil people. I've lived most of my life, but I've only seen that person who can be called a demon. ”
"Is this Dr. Talisac?"
Feng Han opened his mouth unceremoniously, and he opened the book that Pastor Fabiu had just taken, and when he turned to the last page. I saw the name of the original owner of the book, and it was written on it, "Adosi. Talisac" name.
The old priest's expression was very surprised: "Why do you say that, Talisac is a physician of noble character, he has devoted almost his life to the medical cause, he is unusually pious in his work, he treats every patient with sincerity, he only wants to save others, he is a great good man, and he is also a nominal man." ”
Righteous. This is a term used in the Christian system to refer to morally sound believers who obey God's law, act blamelessly, and are faithful and devout to the Lord's cause. The old priest called Dr. Talisac a righteous man in this way, which proved that he admired the doctor from the bottom of his heart.
However, isn't this diametrically opposed to the information that Feng Han and they have been gathering, could it be that this old priest is lying and deceiving them?
But it is clear that this righteous man has done a lot of bad things. The surgeries he presided over hurt many patients and their families. ”
Feng Han opened the book in his hand. Pointing to the signature on the last page, he said unhurriedly, "And I find it hard to believe that a righteous and pious man would collect such evil occult books." ”
Pastor Fabiu sighed and said slowly, "Son, please listen to my explanation, Dr. Talisac. And my father, Jamuse, did do a lot of wrong things, but in the end it wasn't their responsibility, it was the fault of the times, and they, as well as the medical staff who worked at the Holy Child's Relief at the time. They are all good people in the truest sense of the word. They treat patients sincerely, and this kind of treatment is not divided between poor and low, rich and noble, high and low. ”
"But the sad thing about them was that the medical technology at that time was too backward, and the medical knowledge they had could not support their enthusiasm, and at that time, frontal lobotomy was considered a novel medical technology by the medical community, not only my father, but also Dr. Taliasac, who only thought that such a new technology could improve the medical situation at that time......"
"Yes, you can call them stupid, that they are too gullible in authority, or that they are too blind to technology, but you must not doubt their intentions, they really want to help others, every medical staff in the Holy Child Relief House has the same will, I am not talking in vain, I say this because I have been there since I was a child, I have seen with my own eyes the way they treat patients, and I know that they are indeed admirable medical staff."
"But ......"
Shanna looked puzzled, and she made a small noise.
"There are newspapers that say they are abusing patients and have been using brutal methods to imprison patients, and there are a lot of bad rumors."
"Most of that is nonsense, and after the incident, there are a lot of newspapers and media that slander them, and it is not surprising that the Holy Child Relief Home has some medical backward factors, so it may be more severe in dealing with patients with violent disorder. But even today's mental hospitals can go a little too far when dealing with patients with serious violent tendencies, but modern medication and various therapies are much better than in the past, and may be more humane in many ways......
The old priest Fabiu smiled bitterly and said: "You modern young people also know how crazy those newspapers and media are, even small things with big butts can be exaggerated to the extreme, not to mention the big scandals at that time, they are just constantly amplifying the negative information and covering up the positive. ”
The trio glanced at each other, and they all realized that their past speculations were too one-sided, and if it was true that what happened back then was not as rumored by the outside world, even the notoriety of the Holy Infant Relief House was borne for no reason.
"My father and Dr. Talisac were very remorseful, they had done something wrong after all, and the accusations against them were not unfounded, all because they were too superstitious about technology, and at least 20 or 30 patients had undergone relevant surgeries and had different symptoms. After the incident, Dr. Talisac prepared his resignation and bought most of his family possessions, including his ancestral home, as well as various assets, all of which were donated to compensate patients who were showing symptoms.
