'Cursed' woman claims exorcism sex abuse

[moobu2]

SYDNEY - Two men have been charged with more than 220 sex offences at prayer sessions of a western Sydney church.
Police say one of the men had claimed he could speak to angels and remove curses.
The men, aged 61 and 38, are highly regarded members of the Greek Orthodox and Coptic Orthodox communities, police say

<snip>

They allege the victim believed she and her family had been cursed by a member of the Greek community practising black magic and that they would all suffer terrible consequences including death and illness unless the curse was removed.

The woman told police she attended many prayer sessions at various hotels between 2001 and 2005 where she was blindfolded and sexually assaulted.

It's alleged she paid the men between $500 and $1,000 for each prayer session and by 2005 had paid at least $70,000.

1. Greek Orthodox?

Strange custom. Here in the U.S. we call them "Republicans"

2. "Prayer Sessions"?

3. Sounds like bullshit to me, I could see this happening 1 time but over 70 times.

I mean she gets sexually assaulted then continues to pay more money for to be assaulted some more, that's called hiring an escort.

4. Now this is one aspect....

...of Greek Orthodox belief that I hadn't been aware of. Sexual assault as a means of combating curses. And assaulting the victims of the curse, at that.

Hmmmm..... I wonder what kind of curse you have to have on you, in order to warrant such a cure? And I wonder when it finally dawned on these two women, that just maybe these "prayer sessions" weren't working.

- Who knows? It might have finally worked, if only they'd have stayed for a few more treatments....
