Magician Set On Fire: TV Host Severely Burns Wayne Houchin During Impromptu Exorcism

Magician Wayne Houchin was set on fire during a live TV appearance in the Dominican Republic earlier this week.

But this wasn’t a stunt gone wrong. According to The Stir, Houchin was the victim of an improvised exorcism.

The magician, who hosted a season of the Discovery Channel’s Breaking Magic, appeared on a talk show in the Dominican Republic earlier this week to promote his new show Curiosidades. During the show, the talk show host reportedly poured burning cologne on Houchin’s head. The host reportedly used Aqua De Florida cologne, which is apparently used by shamen as a cleansing agent, in order to wash the voodoo off of Houchin.

I hate impromptu exorcisms.  An exorcism needs to be properly planned.

 

Seriously though, this is horrible.

thats called assault with intent to do bodily harm and the show "host/exorcist" should be in jail and have to pay damages. we need to start calling this shit what it is and prosecute those that do it and dont take any crap from lawyers claiming it was a "religious" prerogative.

The latest I heard was that there was a warrant out for his arrest, and no one knew where he was. Not sure if they've found him or not.

He is in New York and keeps insisting it was an accident.   If that is true then he is criminally stupid.  They are trying the extradite him.

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 7 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
