Letter from a Catholic Exorcist

Letter from a Catholic Exorcist


The following letter was sent to me by the Late Father Malachai Maritn
shortly before his death. Dr. Martin was an advisor to several Popes.
The letter speaks for itself. Sooner or later we are going to have to
face up to facts that we are dealing with Demonic forces. Is it any
wonder that drug/alcohol treatment programs are ineffective when they
dont even know what we are dealing with?


Ephesians 6:12 (King James Version)


12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of
this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.Here is the
complete letter sent to me in 1997 by Father Malachai Martin.

Dear Ted:


Thank you for your most kind letter of December 24th. Im glad you were
able to listen to me on the Art Bell program. Please forgive my delay
in replying. But since the publication of my novel, Windswept House, I
have been kept busy with TV and radio shows. As a result, my volume of
mail has considerably increased.Yes, as I mentioned on Art Bell,
possession can occur as a result of drug or alcohol addiction. It opens
a doorway into the soul. The will becomes extremely weak due to its
desire for a drink or drug. This weakness and compulsion for addictive
chemicals allows evil spirits an avenue by which they may enter a
person. This process may begin subtly,even gradually. As the disease of
alcoholism and addiction progresses so too does the evil spirit
strengthen its foothold in the unfortunate's soul. If you suspect
your girlfriend is plagued by demonic forces, I always tell Catholics
they must first contact the Bishop of their diocese and thus have him
investigate the case. Authority must at all times be followed. This is
mandatory in cases of exorcism and I adhere to these principles myself.
If you cannot find a bishop to cooperate then I suggest your girlfriend
say the prayer of St.Micheal the Archangel. It is a very powerful
prayer. Also, have her invoke the most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ
in times of trial and temptation. The Son of God died for her-he died
for you and me-He will never fail her.In the meantime, know that I
shall keep the two of in my Daily Masses and prayers. I ask that you
pray for me as well as I once again take up the pen to continue work on
my upcoming boo. And please, be at peace. Our God is merciful God of
Love. He will look after you.God Bless you Always,Malachai B. Martin

Saint Micheal Prayer


Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in our day of battle. Be our
protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God
rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly
Hosts, thrust into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl
through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Not to long ago, I e-mailed a copy of this letter to Mel B. Mel B. is
an AA with over 50 years of sobriety. He is also the author of several
AA books including " My search for Bill W". Mel is proof there are some
decent AA's out there. Mels response to this letter was the following:


Hi Ted,Thank you for your email and for sharing the letter from Father
Martin. I see that Malachi is a different Father Martin than the
popular one that speaks around AA and has the Ashley program in
Maryland.I like this letter and will keep it to share with one of my
priest friends in the program who is also quite a Catholic scholar.
There is no doubt that a practicing alcoholic seems to be under the
grip of the Devil. As Bill Wilson wrote, if there is a Devil, he sure
had me. And Carl Jung, in his 1961 letter to Bill, even thought the
Devil was an apt description of the demonic force that holds us.My
priest friend says that an appeal to St. Anthony will help us find lost
items. I am not a Catholic, so I simply say, "Come on, Tony, get with
it and help me find this stuff!"All the best,Mel BargerMel B. has a

Rush Limbaugh arrested

Its all over the news with all the pundits saying Rush got a special deal. Some are saying its because he is "white", others are saying its because he is "rich". Lets discuss a few facts.


I like Rush. However, I lost a lot of respect for him due to his drug addiction. However as one who has been there, Im not going to condemn him.


Anyone who has ever been involved in the American Justice system knows the following. The more money you have, the more likely you are going to get a better result.OJ Simpson wasnt white but he had a lot of money. And does anybody doubt that he got a better result because of his ability to afford high priced attorneys?

So yes, your pocketbook does matter when you get caught up in the justice system.

However,here is one overlooked fact in the Limbaugh case. As far as I can determine his housekeepe, Wilma Kline, was never charged with anything. Yet she admitted selling drugs to him over a long period of time. Why wasnt she charged with anything?

Could it be because she wasnt a popular conservative talk show host?

Inquiring minds want to know.

AA teaching and The Bible

From the AA General Service Office website:


Fundamentally, alcoholism is a health problem - a physical and
emotional DISEASE - rather than a question of too little willpower or
of moral weakness. Just as there is no point blaming the victim of
diabetes for a lack of willpower in becoming ill, it is useless to
charge the problem drinker with responsibility for the illness or to
regard such drinking as a vice.


Truth from Holy Scripture

1 Corinthians 6:10 (New International Version)
10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

From the AA GSO Website


“In A.A. today, I know sober leather fans, transvestites, and members of every other sexual group there is. But the only important thing here is that we are all human beings, all alcoholics, and all in A.A. together.”

Truth from Holy Scripture

1 Cor 6:9 "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals"



So who is telling you the truth? The Holy Scriptures that have been passed down for over 2000 years written by prophets of God. Or some unknown drunks and employees of GSO.

There is an irreconcilable conflict between The Holy Scriptures and teaching of AA.
Guess which one is wrong?

Quote of the day

"At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is
assumed all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is
not exactly forbidden to state this or that or the other, but it is
'not done'... Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds
himself silenced with surprising effectiveness." ---George Orwell

The Junkie next door

I watched A&E's "The Junkie next door" this afternoon. I have to say that A&E is doing a service in showing the sadness and tragedy of the "junkie" lifestyle. I've also watched their interventtion series which does the same with addicts and alcoholics.


However, I have not yet seen one person on the A&E series who has an understanding of Addiction or Alcoholism. They have no idea what causes it and they have no idea what the solution is.


Today's show focused on methadone, and Naltrexone as treatments (Stupid treatments by the way). There was absolutely no discusssion of what causes addiction. The closest they came was when they mentioned that 70% of the women using heroin had been sexually abused as youngsters.

They also threw out the statistic that 75% of addicts relapse within 1 year. That is the state of the current treatment in America today.

You would think that after 30 years of being off heroin somebody might be inclined to listen to what I have to say on the subject. After all. Im doing what they say few are able to do. But the fact is hardly anybody listens to me.

The program today ended with a mother of a heroin addict saying that her support group tells her not to blame herself. Shes says its hard.


The truth of the matter is that if you have a kid on drugs, it is your fault. But of course its not acceptable to say that. Read "Hate: The root of Addiction" on this website if you want to understand what I mean when I say that.

Oh well, maybe someone will wander by and believe I know what Im talking about.

Welcome to my blog

Welcome to my BlogI don’t know how you got here, but unless it was by mistake then you have some interest in addiction to alcohol and drugs. This site is dedicated to helping those who really want a solution to their problem.So if you have a problem with drugs or alcohol (or have a family member who does) then you are in the right place. There is a lot of confusion and misinformation out there and I hope I can help you sort through it and perhaps save you some heartache. Who am I? I am just a person who was addicted to alcohol and drugs for 14 years. I got clean and sober in 1976 which is 30 years ago. I had one slip in 1982 when I got drunk during the breakup of my marriage. That was 23 years ago.I have been in various “treatment programs”. I was twice committed to the California Rehabilitation Center in Norco where the State of California sends drug addicts. I was twice in the Long Term Family program at Tarzana California ( a Synanon Clone Program). When I was in Tarzana they told me I was so sick they didn’t know if they could help me or not. I am also a long time participant in both Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.I have outlived some of the substance abuse counselors who counseled me and who died of drug overdoses themselves.The sad truth is that we live in the dark ages of alcohol/addiction treatment.Contrary to what most Americans believe, addiction to alcohol or drugs is not a disease.I hope you will read this site with an open mind. If you do and follow some of the tips and the links provided, then it may be that your life will be forever changed for the better.And that is my prayer and purpose.God BlessTed W.PS: If you have tried to subscribe to my site via bloget, it has come to my attention that it isnt working.
