Previously I had written that in the late 60’s/early 70’s, that William Peter Blatty was working towards winning an Oscar. I thought I remembered reading in a book somewhere that he was researching the story during the late 60’s, but I was unable to find much of anything on the internet to support that claim.
However, I did find that after him seeing the 1968 film Rosemary’s Baby, Blatty told his wife that he wanted to write a story like that. I also found that on New Year’s Eve of 1969 while attending a party, Blatty ran into the editor of Bantam Books, who asked Blatty what he was working on. Blatty responded that he was working on the story of a child possessed by a demon. The editor said, “I’ll publish that.” This led to Blatty signing a contract and was given a financial advance to write the novel about a demon-possessed child.
So there we have it…the evidence that he was headed towards winning an Oscar in the late 60’s. And of course, he began writing at his home the book that was published in 1971. Blatty would then write the adapted screenplay and produce the film released at the end of 1973. A film that would win him an Oscar in 1974.
SPEAKING OF THE DEMONIC
So apparently, there are many demons in California.
A mother of a child who had been socially transitioned behind her back by the school system in California was upset and decided prayer was needed. So she began her prayer, and soon there were many demonic responses to her after she used the name of Jesus. After the mayor (apparently the mayor) stopped her and told her “we don’t do prayer”, the mayor gave the mother 28 seconds to finish with her comments.
The mother continued with her Constitutional right to pray. The mayor interrupted her just seven seconds later, followed by the word “stop” a few seconds later. And 21 seconds after giving the mother 28 seconds, the mayor told her repeatedly that her time was up.
Anyway, if you ever get to see this clip of this mother praying in Ventura, California, be sure to take note of the demonic responses in that room as she prayed.
- Nashville, Tennessee. March 27th, 2023…politically-correct violence against children at a Christian school.
- Vancouver, Canada. March 31st, 2023…a politically-correct assault on Billboard Chris.
- San Francisco, California. April 6th, 2023…a politically-correct mob kidnapping Riley Gaines.
And speaking of the demonic and the politically-correct, praying for loved ones and other people who have been confused by the government and the public school system has been outlawed in Australia apparently.
