The more stories I read like this, and witness the cruelty of fellow Christians in a variety of ways, the more I understand why Jesus' first exorcisms were in temples - the last place anyone would expect there to be demons. Evil is often hiding in plain sight in so-called holy places and institutions. And hiding is being generous. Often is just makes a claim to be following Jesus and then turns and does the exact opposite.
