Maybe Davidnic knows more. He does work in a library. (Or has he already spoken about it in one of the other threads.)
Does this link help any? 'Exorcist' author prepares canon lawsuit against Georgetown :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)
Good afternoon and thanks for explaining it in layman terms, is a lot more clear now whereas before it was jumbled and confusing and seemingly all over the place.
