Some trads are like Evangelicals in that they'll follow a celebrity priest or a priest who lets internet fame get to him and treat his words like gospel. They treat Fr. Ripperger like Muslims do Muhammad.

This is not limited to Ripperger. It's something I've been vocal about lately. Williamson, Lefebvre, Cekada, Sanborn, Dimond, Walthen, etc. it is a phenomenon that is widespread among trads that is very disconcerting.

This division and idolizing of clerics is all part of Satan's game.

"Every kingdom divided against itself shall be made desolate: and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand."
[Matthew 12:25]

"For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears:"
[2 Timothy 4:3]

For while one saith, I indeed am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollo; are you not men? What then is Apollo, and what is Paul? The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given."
[1 Cor. 3:4-5]

This phenomen happens on every group without a strong leadership. It didn't happen in the Church because we had the Pope, who has always been the symbol of unity. 

When we have no Pope, or, at least, no Catholic Pope, divisions and learders will emerge. It's inevitable. When there's a vacuum in power and leadership, it is quickly filled.

It is a social phenomenon. We would expect Catholics to be better than this, but you cannot deny human nature.

It's an unfortunate circuмstance, and the biggest proof that there is no true Pope at this time.

Well, he is very clear that Laity do not have the authority to pray prayers of exorcism. He's modified some of them into Deliverance prayers and he does strongly encourage people to talk to a spiritual director before they begin praying them.
I need to clarify what I said there. He took most all of the prayers in Deliverance Prayers For The Laity from books he was given while training to be an exorcist. There is a different edition of the same title for clergy only that has prayers of exorcism contained in it.

He explains it in the first few minutes of the video below. He didn't write the prayers and they were already in use before he assembled them. He did mention a Deliverance Prayer for breaking Free Masonic ties that was written by a Protestant. He catholicized it and included it in the book.

And on some deliverance prayers in the book he tells the reader how to protect himself from demonic retaliation. For example if a prayer begins with "in the name of Jesus I bind thee.." Laymen can simply alter it to "Jesus, I ask you to bind.." ( by doing so the layman does not imply authority he does not have )



Also here is part 1 of 3 on generational spirits.
