Hello all,

I do appreciate the prayers for Paul and our family but I have to say, I am getting very annoyed with the replies I have been receiving. Have none of you read my original post in it's entirety?

"Your brother doesn't have to know anything about the author you were talking about."

EXACTLY!!! But you completely miss the point. This is what I have been repeating over and over: Paul had NO IDEA who Dr. Thompson was before this occurrence. Even if he were schizophrenic, HOW WOULD HE BE ABLE TO REMEMBER NAMES, DATES AND EVENTS EXACTLY AS THEY OCCURRED IN THE LIFE OF ANOTHER PERSON?!?!?!

I hope you all can understand my frustration and not feel like I am angry with you. The church has been of no help to my family and I made it clear that I have come to this forum looking for ASSISTANCE with this matter, not to hear fifty people reiterate a suspicion which I HAVE ALREADY DIS-PROVEN.

Please try and understand where I am coming from. This tragedy has turned my family completely upside down and we do not know how to go about finding help.

"Get professional help"- this is why I have come here! I have no idea how to go about finding someone who has the power to cast out demons. I am asking anyone who has knowledge of this subject to assist me in getting in touch with people who can help us!

Thank you all again for your concerns,
-Eugene

Hi EP ,

You may find some helpful information by clicking on the following link - Confronting Familiar Spirits

Also consider the potential role of prayer and fasting as mentioned in Matthew Ch. 17 & Mark Ch. 9

( The above Ch.s are also links )

Hope this is helpful .

Because your OP contains unusual content , of incredible nature , folks may have a hard time responding , or knowing how to respond ...

May The Goodness of The Lord Jesus Prevail Mightily in the turning of our infirmities , our dilemmas , and our crises , into that which assists in revealing The Glorious Works of God !

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
<-----> John 9:1-3

Sincerely ,

Hello Eugene, how have things progressed since your last post?

I was today praying about a similar situation with a family member. Not to that extent, but nevertheless very disruptive to us. I think that she is under oppression/possession (as is the case of mental imbalances, in my view). I feel too close to her to deal with it. I just wanted you to know, if it's of any comfort, and publicly, that you're not alone dealing with these things. Unfortunately and for many reasons casting out demons has, for a very long time, been a somewhat taboo subject in Christian circles, as is healing the sick and raising the dead, to name but a few...

Funny enough, all occultists, Thelemites and demonologists I contacted, (when my Christian brethren failed us), KNOW there are demons. Some even USE them! It is openly discussed in occult and other such forums. And then we have Christians that either remain hush about it or when pressed say there are no such things. Now I wonder why this is...

It is my view that a tactic of these demons is to intimidate and slander (amongst other things) Christians who try to expose their existence and indeed cast them out. They know that with the anointing they have no chance and nowhere to go except to the light (which to them is hell before the appointed time!) Either that, or they try to remain feeding on the host through having people think there are no such things as demons and that whoever believes there are, is deluded, a fundamentalist Bible basher or better still (for them and their agents) both!

I ask my Christian friends here how they read Mark 16: "17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover"? Do you think this has a long gone dispensation and/or is mere symbolism and never was? And since I had logged onto the forums today to search for the same, I'd like to ask the OP's original question which was if you know of someone, preferably living, (pardon the sarcasm :)) who can ETHICALLY AND GRACEFULLY cast out devils/demons? Ethically, because, to me, the nature of the 'affliction' means that the 'victim' and relatives may become dependent on the deliverance ministries, their merchandise and doctrines. In other words, one may have had a devil cast out but be in a more entangled situation than before; and gracefully, because someone with the Power will just give the Word and the thing will go out without screaming, foaming at the mouth and so forth. Do you know of such a person? Please PM me if so.

I'd also like to share that the lack of Power and quiet resignation of my Christian brethren to our situation has deeply effected the way I view Christianity. It led me on a wild goose chase that should never have happened and had me in a very tight corner indeed. There was a point I felt so much despair that I thought the Bible couldn't possibly be true, that all Christians were liars/hypocrites and nothing but a decorative part of the establishment... I even thought I'd lost my salvation... All because of this, the places/things I investigated and my guilt at still not being able to help her... Come what may Eugene, please do not let this happen to you. This is the time to cling to Him. Not with a liberal mindset but with everything you got! It might just be that spiritual compromise/liberalism=loss of spiritual power, and that if you work on that you may be able to help him better...

If you want to pursue the spiritual route, and have no luck with the other branches, it might be worth visiting a bona fide Catholic or Eastern Orthodox Church... Maybe have one of their exorcists/ministers visit your brother at home for an informal chat, to test the waters so to speak...

Someone here mentioned that one needs God's permission to cast out demons. Well, if it wasn't God's will for men to be free why would he send Jesus to deliver people from the 'forces' of darkness? Unless Jesus didn't exist, nor any 'force' of darkness? ;) I thought that the only requirement for casting out demons was to have the consent of the oppressed/possessed... I'm always ready to learn and be corrected though. Most of the time anyway. :)

Eugene, I am praying for you and the situation!


DISCLAIMER: Please note that in no way am I a medical or any other doctor. The above views are not intended to diagnose or indeed attempt to treat the OP's brother's situation/'affliction'. They reflect my personal exploration of the subject so far and are shared with the intent of comforting a brother in need.

Wayfaring Man and Christa,

THANK YOU so much for your responses. Especially your long, carefully thought out response Christa!

As I posted yesterday, Paul has vacated his apartment and moved into a hotel in Hollywood. Due to his condition, it is extremely difficult to get in touch with him. Sondra arrived in LA yesterday and has been trying her best to keep tabs on him without making him suspicious. Mom and I have been praying around the clock and are awaiting an update from Sondra later tonight.

Christa, I don't want to ask too many personal questions but does this family member appear to be in a perpetual altered state or does she display symptoms similar to someone with "multiple personalities?" (herself one moment, then possessed another)

I have to say that I am very surprised at the lack of belief in the spirit world amongst the members of this forum. Do not underestimate the power of Satan, you all remember from the book of Job; God allows Satan (for reasons which we do not understand in this life- help us to have faith in your wisdom, Lord!!!!) an incredible amount of power in both the spirit world and the physical realm. But he has also blessed certain people with both understanding of the spiritual realm, and special powers which most of us are not blessed with.

Christa, I share your pain and frustration! Our prayers are with you and your family during this very difficult and confusing time!

More later,
-Eugene

Hi Eugene, you're welcome. I know what if feels like to be in that situation so really had to respond to your post.

I was thinking that if you have reason to believe your brother, or rather the influences he's under, may want to 'harm himself' (a human's main instinct is one of self-preservation, I hear), especially if he's drinking and taking drugs, please consider backing up prayer with action of some sort to make sure he's safe.

What you describe sounds like what is typically labelled as schizophrenia, however as I said, it is my view that such dis-eases are caused by oppression/possession and sometimes vicious attacks from the psychic realm.

With His loving guidance you will know the best thing to do. As for drink & drugs, they are probably keeping wide the door for 'something' to keep hold of him without resistance. It would probably help to separate him from that and his group to see what his state will be like without substances.

As for my relative, she's not in a permanent altered state. The 'thing' comes up briefly when certain subjects are mentioned. Once, I admonished her very strongly for allowing a now diseased friend of hers to do some witchcraft in our kitchen (to help her get rid of the evil eye, said the 'friend'). What happened next stunned and scared me: she went to the kitchen, grabbed a knife and threatened to kill herself in front of me... Definitely not her normal behaviour and her eyes were not what I'd described as human... There was a sort of malice and 'evilness' behind them. There are other things but generally she's being mentally tormented, asking me for help and I'm feeling quite powerless... especially as I'm living in a different country now...

I'll possibly write more later but am sending you a PM now as something's just come to mind.

Christa

Eugene,
I agree with Thankful that only demons can possess a human, that it is unlikely for a demon to be able to possess your brother if he had a close relationship with God, and that demons do attach themselves to some people, sometimes for life. After the person dies, the demon might mimic them.

I met a special lady evangelist 16 years ago named Bobbie Jean Merck. Her main areas of ministry are intercessory prayer, spiritual warfare, and preaching/teaching. She is the only person I have ever witnessed cast out a demon. Perhaps her website can give you more answers and prayer.

I think it's important to have some fellow Christians praying to begin fasting and praying for your brother's deliverance.

Bobbie Jean Merck's website: About

I pray right now, Father, for Eugene's brother and ask that You cause these siblings' faith to increase and help them get a game plan together for their brother's deliverance. Father, I ask in Jesus name that You be merciful to this young man and his family as You were so merciful to that woman all those years ago. Restore in him a right mind and a right spirit; freed forever from the clutches of any demonic spirit or mental illness. Thank You Father for being a good and kind Father. Forgive us our sins and shortcomings. Look at your servant and recognize the blood of your dear Son. Give this family back all they have lost and more. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Thank you to whoever removed that very offensive post. Why someone would make a tasteless remark like that, especially in a case like this, is beyond me.

Just an update: Paul has not returned to his hotel room today. Sondra has spoken with the manager about his condition, but there is not much they can do for us besides let him know that his family is trying to contact him (which, obviously, will do no good.)

I am currently on the internet attempting to get into contact with Catholic churches in the Los Angeles area, hoping that one of them will have experience with performing exorcisms.

My family appreciates your continued prayers!

How can he know everything about the author? I don't know. People w/ schizo know a lot of things. But, forget I said he prob has schizo. Sorry. So, he's possessed--Have you looked into getting help from paranormal people? I know it's something most Christians frown upon but whatever. Your brother needs help and this stuff is real. I hear the Catholic church helps a lot w/ this kind of stuff...

I'm using internet mobile right now or I'd look up some Paranormal people in CA, but I suggest you google it and find someone to help you. I've seen a lot of them help families on the TV show, Paranormal State. For example, one family moved into a house and the daughter got possessed by a man who used to live there in the 1800's. Sounds like that may be what happened to your brother...

Best wishes!

P.S. Now that I think about it, the latter sounds much more like what happened to your brother. I forgot all about the Paranormal State, and what they do, until I started responding to your thread, again. It just popped in my head.
I really hope they can help you and your family!

Eugene. I said a prayer for your brother. I am trying to remember the sermon our pastor preached on demonization. He has actually gone to people's houses to rid the house of an evil presence. He had also talked about mental illness and described how mental illness could be a stand alone illness or also someone who is mentally ill could be tormented by demons. That does not mean your brother is possessed but may be in a weakened state and part of the illness is being taken advantage of by the devil. Just so you know, I am mentally ill with OCD and Depression. I believe I am sick and need medical help, but also need the help of my fellow Christians and of course Christ alone to survive this. The only advice I can suggest is to look for a pastor or church that deals with this type of issue. Keep calling around. I hope you can find what you are looking for. I believe what you have written.

SportsJunkie-

We are currently trying to locate a Catholic minister who is qualified in exorcism, but I will also follow up on your suggestion. Have not yet seen the show you are referring to, am going to look it up online (hopefully they will have some links to the professionals that appear on the show.) I would much prefer that a brother or sister in Christ assist us, but am open to help from non-believers as well (we'll take what we can get!)

About an hour ago I woke from a very vivid, strange dream which involved Dr. Thompson, and now feel calm and at peace.

In the dream, I was playing poker at a casino and doing very poorly. I was feeling very empty inside, but didn't know why. When I was finally about to cut my losses and leave, my mother (who, in the dream, was free from her cancer related pain) came up next to me and discreetly handed me two quarters, one minted in 1967 and the other from 1676 (very strange!) She said the first quarter was lucky and would "help my family" if I used it at the right time (somehow the 1967 quarter was worth a million dollars :confused:) I put both into my pocket and waited for "the right time" (which I instinctively knew was coming soon) and continued playing. Shortly after, I realized that the magical quarter was not supposed to be gambled with at all! And that when mother said "family," she meant that I was to use the money to help my brothers and sisters in Christ!!!! The empty feeling in my soul faded away in an instant, and I was filled with feelings of joy and purpose! I immediately got up from the table and left, but as I walked out of the casino, the quarter fell from my pocket and into a gutter! I felt a horrible, sinking feeling, and the sky became dark and cloudy.

To make matters worse, when I arrived at my parking space, I found that my car had been stolen! I began to walk for miles and miles, hundreds of cars passed but no one would stop for me! I walked until I came to the parking lot of the hotel where I was staying, and a truck pulled up beside me. The window rolled down and I saw an old man in a cowboy hat and aviator shades, who I quickly recognized as Dr. Thompson. He asked if I needed a ride, I said "yes" and got in. We drove about 20 feet and he stopped in front of my room. I thanked him for his kindness and explained that he had been the only person who would stop for me. In my gratitude, I asked him to come up to my room to share a hit of DMT (told you it was a weird dream!!! :D) which he declined with a chuckle. "Oh no thank you son, I'm too old for that stuff! Hard on the lungs... but I'll come up and have a drink with you."

I do not remember the details of the next few hours, but we talked much about music, and laughed often. I remember playing Lou Reed's "Take a Walk on the Wild Side" on an acoustic guitar, and after I had finished, the Doctor thanked me and said, "there is something I would like to give you, before I go." He reached into his pocket, and tossed something shiny at me, which I caught, "this belonged to Kieth Richards, it was his lucky (inaudible)" As the door closed behind him, I looked down and opened my fist... in my palm was a familiar looking quarter, I flipped it over and saw the year "1967" stamped on the back. I woke up feeling a strange sense of relief, peace, rest which I have not felt since I first received word from Sondra about Paul.

It is hard to explain the relief I feel, because I do not understand much about this very odd dream. I don't feel that the events in the dream have any metaphorical meaning- Doesn't make much sense to me!

Upon waking, I felt strongly that God was saying, "your brother will be okay."

Awaiting an update from Sondra this morning! Thank you all and God bless for your continued prayers!

-Eugene

Very interesting dream, Eugene, to say the least. I am thankful you are sensing God's provision and peace. A concerned caution, though. Please reconsider seeking any non-Christian assistance in the realm of deliverance.

Read this:

Matt 12:25-28
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
KJV

The point here is that devils do not cast out devils. According to scripture, power that is not of God is going to make things worse, not better.

Prayers for you for continued wisdom and revelation.

Hi again EP ,

Your dream appears to be saying that before your brother's change , you were distracted from the most worthwhile things in life , then your Mom appears miraculously healed and gives you a couple of tokens which point you towards the more meaningful things , but then when you go to pursue those things you meet with difficulty , signifying that , this path can be difficult , but then someone assists you , and it's the persona which your brother seems to be afflicted by , and this leads to finding peace , suggesting that your brother's plight is a wake up call , one which is meant to lead you away from living as one who is feeling empty and slowing losing all , to a life of helping others in service to Christ .

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even though everything called Christian may not be altogether so , I also advise not looking to those who cannot acknowledge Jesus as Lord .

Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. <-----> 1st Corinthians 12:3

Note : the word " say " in the above verse may well involve more than a verbal pronunciation - for the words we speak should be supported by the way we live .

May The Lord Be Merciful and Gracious . For His Holy Name's Sake . Amen .

EP if things don't work out with Catholic church quickly or they seem unconvinced I would suggest contacting other conservative denomations like Baptist or Pentacostals. Thing id for someone to preform the excorism successfuly denomation doesn't matter so much as the strenght of there faith in Jesus and they also need believe the person they're preforming it on is really possesed. I would suggest you do keep an open mind to the possbilty of mental illness especialy if this doesn't work.
I have include below some verse that show this there from the new King James Bible

Luke 9:48-50
Now John answered and said, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us.” But Jesus said to him, “Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is on our side.”

Acts 19 11-17

Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them. Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches.” Also there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.
And the evil spirit answered and said, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?”
Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

I agree with SportsJunkie25. Your brother needs help and you need to use any means necessary to cure him! If this means getting help from a non-Christian, so be it! (although it is not preferable.) After all, when we have a problem with our plumbing or cars do we say "we have to have a Christian plumber/mechanic/etc?"

The paranormal stuff is VERY REAL! Those of your who are saying that he is schizophrenic are buying into the lies of the secular world! In Jesus time, men were possessed, in this day and age psychologists will say "he is mentally ill" (not saying that ALL cases of mental illness are misdiagnosed, just some.) In Jesus time Godly men had visions from the Lord, today people say "oh, they're just on hallucinogens." I know from personal experience that mental illness, in certain cases, is a LIE from Satan who wants us to deny the reality of the spirit world!!! My mom was possessed by as many as TEN spirits when I was younger. (My mom is Catholic and dad had a knowledgeble exorcist perform an exorcism, I did not watch because I was very young but dad has told me about it and it was horrible!)

Anyways I'm sorry I can't offer anymore help, but I wanted you to know that other Christians do understand your pain and suffering and that you are not alone.

God bless you and your family and we all pray for you to find the best help available!

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

It has been a few days since my last post. Days, nights, whatever... Have been without sleep for maybe 80 hours now. Paul has still not returned to his hotel. All we know at the moment is that his 1967 BSA was found abandoned on the 101 near Van Nuys on Saturday night. Please continue to pray for his safety!!!

Greetings in Christ,

I've come to this forum seeking help with some serious family troubles and need advice from my brothers and sisters in Christ. I believe that my younger brother has become possessed by the spirit of the recently deceased journalist Dr. Hunter S. Thompson and has cut off all communication with his family. I need help from strong Christians who are understand the nature of the spirit world and are going to take my story seriously. I come from a liberal church and nobody in my congregation is taking my family seriously- my pastor and others whom we have confided in are all convinced that my brother is schizophrenic. I am looking to get into contact with Christians who have experience with demonic possessions and know where my family can turn to get help for my brother.

I had always considered myself a "moderate" Christian (I accept evolution, big bang, old earth, etc.) I do not take the entire Bible literally (don't believe in the Great Flood, etc.) The church I attend is very progressive; we support gay rights, womens right to choose, etc. The majority of our congregation is made up of free thinkers, scientists, artists, etc. Demonic possession is something I have never believed in. This very disturbing event has forced me to change my views.

Two weeks ago, my older sister (Sondra) called me up, extremely distraught, telling me that our younger brother (Paul) had become possessed by a demonic spirit. She explained that she had not seen or heard from him in over two months (the two of them are very close and speak often) he was not answering her e-mails or phone calls. The day before, she had driven from her home in Tucson to his apartment in LA- he was not home so she waited for him in the parking lot for almost ten hours. When Paul finally showed up at 4AM, Sondra barely recognized him by his appearance. Paul was intoxicated, smoking a cigarette and carrying a bottle of bourbon in his hand- he was extremely paranoid, mumbling about Hubert Humphrey and Ed Muskie and had absolutely no idea who Sondra was.

As she began to describe the incident to me, I immediately concluded that Paul had succumbed to some sort of serious mental illness, like schizophrenia; signs of delusion (believed he was living in the year 1972) paranoia (kept asking Sondra if "one of Nixon's henchmen" had sent her...) but the more she went into detail, the more skeptical I became. I am now convinced that my brother is possessed.

Growing up, I was the wild kid of the bunch. Paul and Sondra both committed their lives to Christ in elementary school and neither one experienced "backsliding." Both my siblings were model Christian kids. While I was smoking marijuana, going to concerts and having sex in college, Paul was volunteering at the Salvation Army and working with Campus Crusaders. My little brother was the biggest goody goody you could ever meet- I never once heard him curse, never saw him smoke a cigarette; he didn't even have a drink on his 21st birthday!

So when Sondra went on to describe the conditions of Paul's apartment and the nature of the conversation she had with him that night, I began to think "this makes absolutely no sense! There is no naturalistic explanation for what is happening here!"

Here are the facts that convince me that my brother is possessed by the late Dr. Thompson:

- During Paul's conversation with Sondra, he was recalling a "disturbing conversation" he had just had with a "confidential informant" who told him that he had hard evidence that the Dolphins purposely lost the Super Bowl to the Cowboys and that "the Soviets were possibly involved." My brother hates football! He had no idea who played in this years Super Bowl, how would he know that Miami had plated Dallas in '72??? How was he able to recall, in detail, key plays in the game and that Ella Fitzgerald had performed at half time? He also told Sondra that he was still angry with Jan Werner (the publisher of Rolling Stone magazine) for cutting off his expense account (I looked into this and confirmed that Rolling Stone had indeed cut off Thompson's credit card during his coverage of the 1972 Super Bowl.)

- Paul has never read any of Thompson's books, probably never even heard of the man in the first place. So, even if this was a case of mental illness, how would he be able to recall so many details from Thompson's past? How would he be aware of so many of the man's idiosyncrasies? I spoke with Paul over the phone three days ago (in order to have a conversation with him, I had to tell him I was a student at UC Berkley, that I was a great admirer of his work and was doing a story on him for the school's newspaper.)

Has anyone here had a similar experience? Or know of people who we could be put into contact with who would be able to help?

Prayers and input greatly appreciate! God bless!

Greetings in Christ,

I've come to this forum seeking help with some serious family troubles and need advice from my brothers and sisters in Christ. I believe that my younger brother has become possessed by the spirit of the recently deceased journalist Dr. Hunter S. Thompson and has cut off all communication with his family. I need help from strong Christians who are understand the nature of the spirit world and are going to take my story seriously. I come from a liberal church and nobody in my congregation is taking my family seriously- my pastor and others whom we have confided in are all convinced that my brother is schizophrenic. I am looking to get into contact with Christians who have experience with demonic possessions and know where my family can turn to get help for my brother.

I had always considered myself a "moderate" Christian (I accept evolution, big bang, old earth, etc.) I do not take the entire Bible literally (don't believe in the Great Flood, etc.) The church I attend is very progressive; we support gay rights, womens right to choose, etc. The majority of our congregation is made up of free thinkers, scientists, artists, etc. Demonic possession is something I have never believed in. This very disturbing event has forced me to change my views.

Two weeks ago, my older sister (Sondra) called me up, extremely distraught, telling me that our younger brother (Paul) had become possessed by a demonic spirit. She explained that she had not seen or heard from him in over two months (the two of them are very close and speak often) he was not answering her e-mails or phone calls. The day before, she had driven from her home in Tucson to his apartment in LA- he was not home so she waited for him in the parking lot for almost ten hours. When Paul finally showed up at 4AM, Sondra barely recognized him by his appearance. Paul was intoxicated, smoking a cigarette and carrying a bottle of bourbon in his hand- he was extremely paranoid, mumbling about Hubert Humphrey and Ed Muskie and had absolutely no idea who Sondra was.

As she began to describe the incident to me, I immediately concluded that Paul had succumbed to some sort of serious mental illness, like schizophrenia; signs of delusion (believed he was living in the year 1972) paranoia (kept asking Sondra if "one of Nixon's henchmen" had sent her...) but the more she went into detail, the more skeptical I became. I am now convinced that my brother is possessed.

Growing up, I was the wild kid of the bunch. Paul and Sondra both committed their lives to Christ in elementary school and neither one experienced "backsliding." Both my siblings were model Christian kids. While I was smoking marijuana, going to concerts and having sex in college, Paul was volunteering at the Salvation Army and working with Campus Crusaders. My little brother was the biggest goody goody you could ever meet- I never once heard him curse, never saw him smoke a cigarette; he didn't even have a drink on his 21st birthday!

So when Sondra went on to describe the conditions of Paul's apartment and the nature of the conversation she had with him that night, I began to think "this makes absolutely no sense! There is no naturalistic explanation for what is happening here!"

Here are the facts that convince me that my brother is possessed by the late Dr. Thompson:

- During Paul's conversation with Sondra, he was recalling a "disturbing conversation" he had just had with a "confidential informant" who told him that he had hard evidence that the Dolphins purposely lost the Super Bowl to the Cowboys and that "the Soviets were possibly involved." My brother hates football! He had no idea who played in this years Super Bowl, how would he know that Miami had plated Dallas in '72??? How was he able to recall, in detail, key plays in the game and that Ella Fitzgerald had performed at half time? He also told Sondra that he was still angry with Jan Werner (the publisher of Rolling Stone magazine) for cutting off his expense account (I looked into this and confirmed that Rolling Stone had indeed cut off Thompson's credit card during his coverage of the 1972 Super Bowl.)

- Paul has never read any of Thompson's books, probably never even heard of the man in the first place. So, even if this was a case of mental illness, how would he be able to recall so many details from Thompson's past? How would he be aware of so many of the man's idiosyncrasies? I spoke with Paul over the phone three days ago (in order to have a conversation with him, I had to tell him I was a student at UC Berkley, that I was a great admirer of his work and was doing a story on him for the school's newspaper.) His voice is unrecognizable as my brother; he mumbles in the same rhythm as Thompson, uses words like "swine" and "atavistic," and

-The last time I saw him he was working in a hospital billing office, volunteering part time with the youth ministry at his church. He has since quit his job, vacated his apartment and moved into a hotel in Hollywood. Has been drinking, taking LSD and hanging around with an outlaw motorcycle club! He told me that he was upset over the lack of success of his book "Hell's Angels" and had been riding with the Mongols working on a sequel.

I feel trapped and hopeless! I don't even know where to begin!
