I can't believe that people still think that people with autism are possessed by demons! This is the 21st century, we should be better than that!

Really? No one told me I need an exorcism for having autism. I really don't think that's necessary.

Yet another slovenly,lazy,ignorant case where people who are used to beating their children into submission need an exscuse. Sad...but certain people would be able to accept a person saying " my child has the devil in him...thats why he isnt behaving the way everyone thinks he should" rather than an explanation of Autism, and some education. Believe me...I have been there. Had my boy called a devil child, by a bitch like the mother in this story.

@blackstarzero sometimes the label of autism is tacked on to a childs acting out and anti social behavior, which is really the result of abuse by authorities. this happens a lot in utah, where i used to live. this is another abuse of innocents.

as long as someone is vulnerable in ANY way, there will be predators at bay, ready to take advantage....mostly these predators come in the form of authority figures. you know.

@freestyleshaman yup it is real, god is real.

I'm a Christian, and I have Aspergers. It surprises me day in and day out how many people are ignorant and superstitious (fearful) in their thinking.

Demon possession? Are you kidding me?

(now I know this will sounds nuts and absurd but please bear with me) =)

They are completely different. Anyone with the holy spirit in their heart will recognize the difference. Fear was the murder weapon, and the spirit of fear is not the spirit of God.

RIP Junior.
