Exorcism and the Church Militant Joseph Wednesday, April 17, 2013

Question:

Bro. Ignatius,

I recently tried to purchase "Exorcism and the Church Militant" by Rev. Thomas Euteneuer but was outbid by one dollar at the last second on ebay. So, I had a library loan the book to my school so I could read it. I'm entering seminary in the fall and am interested in this ministry, and my spiritual adviser (an exorcist priest) said this is "probably the best book on the subject." He has read all of Amorth's work and much more, including books not printed in English, and also knows Euteneuer personally.

Anyhow, I am working on my final paper analyzing virtue and vice in Aquinas and won't have time to finish the book before its due date, so I scanned the pages to read later. My question is whether or not it would be wrong to put the book online since the author is silenced by the Church? There are no heretical teachings in the work of course, and he was not silenced when he wrote it. As far as I know there isn't access to it online and I think its a shame people can't read the book without paying high prices for the few remaining copies available.

If there is nothing wrong with the idea, I thought you may want to put a link on your site? It's in PDF...

Thanks for all you do and for any feedback,
Joseph

Dear Joseph:

I would be most interested in the pdf file if you have the whole book translated into a pdf file. I have a copy of the book and have been planning to scan the book into digital form ever since the book was published.

We plan on publishing the book as a free textbook (eBook) for our students and other interested people.

Neither you or we can place this book on the Internet because of copyright issues. We plan, however, on asking the copyright owner for permission to re-publish the book formally if they are not going to do so.

In the meantime, the book cannot be reproduced for public consumption.

But, if you can provide us with the PDF file of the book that you have, this would save us many hours of work and would be very appreciative.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
