	SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Should exorcism precede Baptism?
		For exorcism is ordained against energumens or those who are possessed.
		The energumens are so-called from "laboring inwardly" under the outward operation of the devil.
		And though not all that approach Baptism are troubled by him in their bodies, yet all who are not baptized are subject to the power of the demons, at least on account of the guilt of original sin.

	ICARUS DESCENDING by Elizabeth Hand - The Dark Spiral (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Energumens are giant, beautiful (as Cybele was beautiful), and live for only 1000 days.
		In a sense, the energumens are all the same fifteen-year old girl, who longs for nothing more than to be reunited with Father.
		The novel begins and ends with one energumen's quest to find her long-dead Father, and Hand does not disappoint.

	The Catholic Encyclopedia - Exorcist
		That catechumens were exorcised every day, for some time before baptism, may be inferred from canon of the same council, which prescribed the daily imposition of hands by the exorcists.
		A further duty is precribed in canon 92, viz: to supply food to, and in a general way to care for, energumens who habitually frequented the Church.
		There is no mention of pagan energumens, for the obvious reason that the official ministrations of the Church were not intended for them.

	THIRD PART OF THE SUMMA THEOLOGICA : L.80, C.11.
		Objection 2: Further, among those who have not the use of reason are the possessed, who are called energumens.
		Reply to Objection 2: Dionysius is speaking there of energumens who are not yet baptized, in whom the devil's power is not yet extinct, since it thrives in them through the presence of original sin.
		But as to baptized persons who are vexed in body by unclean spirits, the same reason holds good of them as of others who are demented.

	Summa Theologica
		But catechumens who are instructed by catechism, and "energumens" who are cleansed by exorcism, are counted among the unclean, as Dionysius says in the same place.
		Therefore to catechize and to exorcize do not belong to the office of the priests, but rather to that of the ministers.
		Objection 3: Further, "to catechize" is the same as "to teach," and this is the same as "to perfect." Now this belongs to the office of a bishop, as Dionysius says (Eccl.

		Polyeuctes who went to the temple on a solemn occasion to overthrow and smash the statues and ornaments, was a less horrible fanatic than Diaz, but no less stupid.
		The assassins of duke François de Guise, of William, prince of Orange, of king Henry III and king Henry IV, and so many others, were energumens suffering from the same madness as Diaz.
		The most detestable example of fanaticism is that of the bourgeois of Paris who hastened in saint Bartholomew's night to assassinate, butcher, throw out of the windows, cut in pieces their fellow citizens who did not go to mass.

		And after they are gone out, let him say: Ye energumens, afflicted with unclean spirits, pray, and let us all earnestly, pray for them, that God, the lover of mankind, will by Christ rebuke the unclean and wicked spirits, and deliver His supplicants from the dominion of the adversary.
		May He that rebuked the legion of demons, and the devil, the prince of wickedness, [1] even now rebuke these apostates from piety, and deliver His own workmanship from his power, and cleanse those creatures which He has made with great wisdom.
		For to Thee is due glory, honour, and worship, and by Thee to Thy Father, in the Holy Spirit, for ever.

	Holy Orders
		It is clear that one of the chief duties of exorcists was to take part in baptismal exorcism.
		That catechumens (the unbaptised) were exorcised every day, for some time before baptism, may be inferred from canon of the same council, which prescribed the daily imposition of hands by the exorcists.
		A further duty is to supply food to, and in a general way to care for, energumens who habitually frequented the Church.

	Alexandrine Liturgy
		The Mass of the Catechumens consisted of Lessons from Holy Scripture, Psalms sung alternately, and Homilies.
		Then follow the blessing and dismissal of various kinds of people who are not allowed to be present at the Holy Eucharist, the catechumens, penitents, and energumens.
		In Serapion and Pseudo-Dionysius the Mass of the Faithful begins with the bringing of the oblations to the altar; they are then covered with a veil.

		Just to add a little more perspective, Republicans's few positive contributions will continue to be overshadowed by its broader message of hate.
		What I meant to say is that Republicans's beliefs will calumniate helpless energumens in a lustrum or two.

		The first part after passing through "the great gates," or doors of the building, was called the Narthex in Greek, and Faerula in Latin, and was a narrow vestibule extending the whole width of the church.
		In this part, to which Jews and Gentiles, and in most places even heretics and schismatics were admitted, stood the Catechumens, and the Energumens or those afflicted with evil spirits, and the second class of penitents (the first mentioned in the Canon), who were called the

		In the text that follows, I won't bother discussing the flaws in Automatic42's logic, because he sincerely doesn't use any logic.
		What is the milieu in which unsophisticated, fickle energumens deplete the ozone layer?
		It is the underworld of conspiracy theory, a subculture in which viperine flakes share fantasies of fighting heroically against a huge conspiracy that will defy the rules of logic one day.

	Taxation is Robbery, by Frank Chodorov
		In that event, the State would be taking what it is responsible for.
		But that is not the argument of ability-to-pay energumens.
		They insist that the State is a contributing factor in production, and that its services ought properly to be paid for; the measure of the value of these services is the income of its citizens, and a graduated tax on these incomes is only due compensation.

	Narthex
		John Hawkins has done such research and the results are very interesting.
		In those early days the narthex could contain catechumens, energumens (demoniacs and others possessed of abnormal mental and physical states or afflicted with un- clean spirits), penitents, Jews, heathens, heretics, schismatics, corpses during funeral rites and, oh yes, women!
		Besides John’s research, I found on a quick trawl through the net that there are many references to narthex, and the closing comments of the one from the Catholic Dictionary seems to summarise my feelings very well....

	Demonic possession - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		Hysteria is the first step to all other diseases previously mentioned, and it is more common in women than in men, thus the number of "demon-possessed" people and accusers was higher in women than in men; so it was the number of people killed by those accusations too.
		Medicine can explain some aspects of the "symptoms" shown by those persons allegedly possessed; it is known that "supernatural strength" is common in some cases of insanity (maniacs, energumens, etc.).
		The theme of demon possession has been by far better exploited by cinema than literature.

		Okay, so to start with the general stuff, I see how important its smarmy dissertations are to its brethren and I laugh.
		I laugh because to say that hanging out with illiberal energumens is a wonderful, culturally enriching experience is bitter nonsense and untrue to boot.
		Okay, there's no reason for me to be appalling, so I'll leave you with this concept: It's likely that one of these days Scampering Playful Kittens will force me to undergo "treatment" to cure my "problem" if we don't stop it now.

		There were things I liked about the book -- Tast'annin's backstory, the energumens, the brain fungus (my fave).
		I think that rather than describing his work as baroque, I would characterize it as wretched excess of the Elizabethan variety.
		That's funny about energumen -- I think I came up with it from a reference in either Shelley or Keats.

		The reason for this is sound enough: it is not particularly profitable to take a stand on some polarizing issue, thereby alienating countless current or potential customers.
		But a conservatism that trusts in business to shelter a nation's traditions from the energumens is bound for disappointment.
		An aging pluralistic society has little defense against an active and passionate religious minority.

	Isaiah's Job by Albert Jay Nock
		Smith and Liberty Leaguers — the list is endless.
		I can not remember a time when so many energumens were so variously proclaiming the Word to the multitude and telling them what they must do to be saved.
		This being so, it occurred to me, as I say, that the story of Isaiah might have something in it to steady and compose the human spirit until this tyranny of windiness is overpast.

		Megaman Retrofraction spouts a lot of numbers whenever it wants to make a point.
		It then subjectively interprets those numbers to support its prognoses while ignoring the fact that you, of course, now need some hard evidence that the few voluble energumens who deny this are not only wrong, they are willfully unreasonable.
		Well, how about this for evidence: Megaman Retrofraction wants all of us to believe that those of us who oppose it would rather run than fight.
