The Exorcist

“Everybody is vulnerable to the work of Satan” and that “the devil loves to take over those who hold political office,” says famous Italian exorcist, Father Gabriele Amorth.

“I tell those who come to see me to first go to a doctor or a psychologist,” the priest continued. “Most of the time there is a physical or psychological basis for explaining their suffering. The psychiatrists send me the incurable cases. There is no rivalry. The psychiatrist determines if it is an illness, the exorcist if it is a curse,” Father Amorth explained.

Nobody, he went on, not even himself, is “safe from the devil. Everyone is vulnerable.” “The devil is very intelligent. He retains the intelligence of the angel that he was.” [h/t: New Advent]
