Cosign. All of this.
+2. This is most likely what she meant. off course misguided as Ness has explained. The
pastor bishop also thought he was addressing a demon. I would not be too concerned if it was really a demon, because they can manifest themselves physically through humans, so let's not be too emotional here guys
But I just think in this particular instance, the bishop smacked someone who is just misguided, not possessed.
disclaimer: it's my 1st time seeing someone being smacked in a christian gathering. The only other time was when I tackled [football style from behind] one of the thugs who was stealing mobile phones from the ladys' rooms during an easter conference. thereafter other guys coming behind me smacked the thugs well
It doesn't happen all the time. This was most likely a crusade or special program. Doesn't excuse it though, but you should note that Africans take issues of witchcraft, especially among children, VERY seriously. From the testimonies I have heard and seen, most witches have been practicing since childhood.
It is really sad, but because of the endemic poverty and lack of education in many African countries, children are the main target of all sorts of evil elements.
Sad, yo! 
Side note- my mom told us that when my sister and I were born, we were dedicated to the idols my grandfather used to serve. By the time my youngest sister was born, my mom absolutely refused.
Yeah, i know witchcraft isn't taken lightly in Africa [I'm sure in Asia as well?]
My pastor happens to be from Nigeria, and he is also very careful about witchcraft issues:
-yesteday I was at church and the caretaker had this load of clothes in his room. I asked him where that load is from. He told me that someone dropped it off at the church as a donation. But my pastor wasn't too happy because he doesn't know the people and has not seen them, so he wanted to burn the clothes or leave them by the street-side so that whoever wants them can take them.
It was just interesting for me because I would have dedicated the clothes to God, bring them under the cleansing power of His blood and give them to the needy.
But my pastor doesn't want to see such clothes inside the church.
So there are cultural dynamics in how we deal with everything. I'm sure if the bishop was in the US he wouldn't have slapped the woman, but he could get away with it in Nigeria.
Every now and again, a couple of pastors in India send us pics of their churches- most of the people are barefooted. If you do not understand the culture/ environment, you'd think they're possessed. but it's just an environmental/ cultural issue.
So in most likelihood, you'll find that 3/4 of the people who attended that meeting would be going on about how cool it was when the bishop slapped the "demon", meanwhile the woman is so humiliated and just wants to serve God.
But I got some ideas from that clip...for one day when i'm a bishop
