The fixation on demons and exorcism in reactionary Christianity today tells us much:

1. This kind of fixation predictably emerges when cultural shifts are underway, and entrenched power structures feel threatened.

2. Men in many cultures feel threatened, feel that their long-taken-for-granted privilege and entitlement based solely on being penis-endowed is under assault.

3. Reactionary men (and women who ally with them) are driving reactionary Christianity today.

4. The claim that I and my allies can cast out demons is a claim of superiority: I'm on God's side. You're not. This is on the face of it an astonishing claim for Matt Schlapp and folks like him to make.
