It wasn't a long walk, mine was about 7 or 8 blocks in my case, but it could be a bit spooky. I also have forgotten almost all of the Latin I learned, but, for some odd reason, I can still recite the Suscipiat correctly from memory to this day. Odd indeed. If you're looking for a bit of nostalgia, I came across this link a while back; its a handbook for altar boys and the various forms of Mass:

I pardon you vienna ... all things are spiritual. What you describe is still in you and you have to forgive those misguided souls and move on in life.

Now please pardon me as I try to help you understand that what you have been through is hell: http://www.charismamag.com/spirit/su...nd-an-exorcist

our Charismatic churches often do not discuss or embrace the ministry of deliverance the people of God don't know the difference between a deliverance minister and an exorcist and can end up falling into deception. In the 1913 Webster's Dictionary, we find the definition of both an exorcism and deliverance.

Exorcism is defined as, "Driving out of evil spirits from persons or places by conjuration." Conjuration is incantation, which is a witchcraft definition. Exorcism is an expression or trick used in conjuring. Synonyms to conjuration are: abracadabra, bewitchment, charm, spell, enchantment, hex and incantation—which are all witchcraft terms and practices.

Related words to conjuration are: curse, jinx, magic, necromancy, sorcery, voodoo, and wizardry—which are again practices involving evil spirits.
