Some Catholic exorcists online are fueling fear and scrupulosity. Their words paint a trickster God — a God who sets traps, honors demonic “contracts,” or sends demons against you for something as simple as laying hands in prayer. This is not Catholicism. This is pop demonology — and at times, undercover paganism.In this video, I walk through popular exorcist claims (from “bloodline curses” to the so-called “blast radius” of the St. Michael prayer) and show how they conflict with the Catechism, the Fathers, and the saints. I’ll contrast pop theology of fear with the traditional Catholic vision of God as Bridegroom — the God who runs to us, restores His image in us, and whose mercy always outweighs the power of demons.If your spirituality makes you fear demons more than you trust God… it’s not Catholicism. It’s not the Gospel.
